The big green guy is now making a ton of green on ITunes as well. The first week of both Electronic Sell Through and VOD rental has vaulted “Godzilla” to the top of the Itunes chart this week, displacing last week’s champ, “Captain America: Winter Soldier”. New EST debuts were a bit consistent as “Transformers: Age of Extinction” finished fourth and “Chef” landed in sixth, however further back, “Think Like A Man Too” barely cracked the Top 10 and Seth MacFarlane’s “A Million Ways To Die In The West” held onto the #15 spot.
The first week of rental availability was kind to films other than “Godzilla” as “The Fault In Our Stars” jumped to the second spot after several weeks of EST only. This week’s 99 cent rental, the Indian comedy “The Lunchbox”, showed the power of these kind of bargain basement rentals, as the film made the top 5.
This coming week’s new releases include “X-Men: Days of Future Past” and Dreamworks’ animated “Mr. Peabody and Sherman”
