Well actually, they both do.
Netflix has been around for fourteen years and on Tuesday, they released the "Netflix Top 10 Movie Rentals of All-Time." Taking into account that no movie on the list would be older than fourteen years or so, I was still surprised at the list. It didn't include the usual fanboy/comic book/superhero/sequel/prequel/remakes (save for Iron Man) that have been inundating the box office lately.
So the surprise rental champ is...Sandra Bullock, who not only stars in the top renting film, but the top TWO renting films, The Blind Side and Crash respectively.
Here is the Netflix Top 10:
1) The Blind Side
2) Crash
3) The Bucket List
4) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
5) The Hurt Locker
6) The Departed
7) Sherlock Holmes
8) Inception
9) Iron Man
10) No Country for Old Men
In response to Netflix's list, today, BitTorrent released the “Top 10 Most Pirated Movies.” Surprisingly again, it also didn't include some of the usual suspects that have been inundating the box office lately. In fact, the two movies to make both lists, The Departed and Inception, are hardly aimed at the teenage fanboy that the studios have been catering to lately.
Here is BitTorrent's Top 10:
1) Avatar
2) The Dark Knight
3) Transformers
4) Inception
5) The Hangover
6) Star Trek
7) Kick-Ass
8) The Departed
9) The Incredible Hulk
10) Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
So, to answer the question, Sandra and James each come in first place.
