what are the best selling dvds?

[jaybeekay]

I'm doing my senior thesis on dvd menu design and how we interact with the DVD. I'm just starting my research and i wanted to start off by looking at the best selling dvds of all time. I can only find list for weekly sales. but I want total sales.

If anyone knows, or can point me to a web site, please let me know. Thanks.

Also, if you folks know of any sites that discuss different aspects of dvd menu/interface let me know. Or if you know of a player that has a really good interface let me know.

Thanks!

Shrek
Monsters Inc
Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone
The Matrix

thanks. i've also found amazon's top selling list

I think Amazon's top-selling list only represents what has been sold at Amazon, not in the US or around the world.

I think Spider-man broke the record formerly held by Monsters Inc. There's only like 3 or 4 DVD titles that have broke the 9 million sold mark, and those were 2 of them. Harry Potter may have been the other one. I think Shrek broke 8 million sold, but not 9 million. I don't think the Matrix is in the top 5.

There was some sort of article that came out maybe 3 to 6 months ago that showed the top 10 selling DVDs of all time, and I think someone posted it in one of the topics here, but I don't exactly remember under what topic.
