Are the days of going to the local multi-plex to see the latest blockbuster coming to an end? Probably not anytime soon, but recent DVD sales figures indicate that a good number of films actually make more money when they are released on DVD than they did during their entire theatrical run. One example: "The Flight Of The Phoenix" made $21 million dollars in the first few weeks of its DVD release, which is more that it made during its theatrical play. For additional examples, check out this interesting report from Big News Network.
