“Inside Out 2” (Disney), the biggest domestic movie since “Top Gun: Maverick” in 2022, finally arrived at home. Released in theaters June 10, it still ranked #10 at the box office last weekend — which is probably why it could debut with a $24.99 three-day rental and take first place at both iTunes (which ranks by transactions) and Fandango (ranking by revenue).
This week Netflix had three of its own original films among the top four, led by “The Union” starring Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry. The secret agent comedy-thriller is #1 for the second week, uncommon among Netflix Originals.
VOD charts also saw Neon’s low-budget sleeper success “Longlegs” place third at both sites. This came after six weeks of strong theatrical success, with $73 million so far.
Unusually, iTunes and Fandango shared the same top four films. “Twisters” (Universal), last week’s #1, is second at both, while “Despicable Me 4” (Universal) is fourth.
Also new this week and making both charts is “Oddity” (IFC), a horror movie about a psychic trying to solve a murder. Part of IFC’s partnership with Shudder, this grossed $1.2 million in theaters last month. It’s #9 at iTunes, #10 at Fandango renting for $6.99.
Joining “The Union” this week at Netflix is its original teen comedy “Incoming” (freshman awkwardness at a high school party) at #2 and the documentary “Untold: The Murder of Air McNair” fourth. Just added this week is Universal’s 2023 “Migration” at #3, one of six animated titles in the top 10. Steven Soderbergh’s “Logan Lucky” from 2017 at #5 is the sole studio live-action film listed this week.
