Contrary to some expectations, the sales of “Dukes of Hazzard – The Beginning” haven’t fallen flat. In the first week of release, sales were good enough for “The Beginning” to debut at # 16. This is a respectable position for any DVD in its first week.
Sitting comfortably in the Top 20, “The Beginning” is expected to rise in sales as the spring break season continues. Whether “The Beginning” has the stamina to last long-term, remains to be seen.
Meanwhile, its worth noting that the 2005 Dukes movie has sold 5 million DVD’s. This is on top of the robust DVD sales of the original series. With several Dukes of Hazzard titles on retail shelves, Warner Bros will probably find more ways for the Dukes to make a dollar.
Oh, and in case ya hadn’t figured it out, our last post was an April Fool’s joke.
