Does anyone know...

[on:]

the sales figures for the Futurama DVD's, I know Family Guy sold 3 million and thats the main reason they brought it back. its not another bring futurama back thread, just tell me the sales and someone can lock this

[Reply #1 on:]

*shrugs* Dunno... I forget the thread that had TV ratings for Futurama 

[Reply #2 on:]

He's not looking for TV ratings, he's looking for DVD sales. Neither of your posts are helpful! Sorry Sk24, I don't know either.

EDIT: Looks like Kryten deleted one of the posts above me, and probably some below me.

jesus you people are anal, calm down. I just want to know the DVD sales not the ratings. at least GrayThinkyWhale isn't so uptight.

[Reply #4 on:]

I've tried Googling the question, I tried asking Jeeves, but I can't seem to find the info. Could someone please help this guy?

[Reply #5 on:]

They have them at amazon.com, but they are only for current sales, not overall. The numbers are not pretty though   

Edit: actually volume 4 is at 187 right now. That's not bad. Also, apparently they are on sale for $30 not bad

[Reply #6 on:]

$30's a pretty good deal.  I haven't seen vol. 4 below $40 since it came out.  This looks like a permanent price drop for the set on Amazon.  I hope that the case, as it'll give me time to get it.

I have no idea.

[Reply #8 on:]

Hopefully they'll sell like crazy now 

[Reply #9 on:]

They might be in 187, but how many total units have they found?

[Reply #10 on:]

187? i assume u mean thousand?

[Reply #11 on:]

I'm not sure, I think he's talking about at amazon alone or something.....

[Reply #12 on:]

well there is the internet. im sure they'll have some copy's on that internet. haha, anyway, to GrayThinkyWhale, im looking for overall sales, everywhere. ive tried googling it and stuff and I cant find it, im sure its somewhere though.

[Reply #14 on:]

Sorry, I should have clarified. Futurama volume 4 is number 187 Amazon.com's current dvd sales, movies and all. (movies and all) For example, number one right now is Sin City I believe.
I'm not sure about worldwide unit sales. I'm curious as well though...

[Reply #15 on:]

Well it has been out for what, almost a year now? (i have a horrible memory) Whereas sin city came out a week ago, its popular. It doesn't suprise me that it ranks 187 ( if i understand u correctly) I also look for some stats but came up short, sorry

[Reply #16 on:]

I afraid I've had no luck finding the sales figures too. I've sent FOX an e-mail requesting the worldwide sales figures, don't know how long it'll be before I get a reply, but when I do I'll post it here.

[Reply #17 on:]

^thanks btyrie, you people here are helpful. but I doubt FOX responds to e-mails other than "American Idol Rocks!" i know Family Guy sold 3 mil. thats how they got back, so im still hoping.

I know, I was refering to Parasite?.

[Reply #19 on:]

Yeah, I find 187 pretty good. I thought about emailing fox (they don't deserve dem fancy big letters) as well, but I feared responses about reality shows <shudder>

[Reply #20 on:]

ive tried everywhere, i cant find it, now its driving me crazy too!!!

[Reply #21 on:]

This isn't an actual figure, but a good news sign for everyone.

When you send an e-mail to FOX, make sure you don't put Futurama in the subject line. I read on The Fry Hole that FOX might have a filter up against these names.
I'm writing one now and I saying how much I like their horribe reality shows in a bid to get them to answer.
Hope it works. 

[Reply #23 on:]

look- i hate fox as much as the next futurama fan but if they've put up a filter against it then doesn't that tell you somthing- We're not gonna change fox's minds so maybe we should quit trying and accept that futurama is gone and will never return

sorry to put everyone down but it's true 

[Reply #24 on:]

I need the false hope.

[Reply #25 on:]

if the straight to DVD movies actually come out and sell well than the show DVD cases won't matter as much.
