Best-Selling DVDs & Blu-rays of 2008
The top 100 on Amazon UK that year.
A definitive look back at the 2008 Amazon UK chart. Click any cover to find it on Amazon.
Mamma Mia! The Movie topped the chart, but the year's real story is told by the title right behind it: The Dark Knight, which charts on standard DVD at two and, tellingly, on Blu-ray at 15, the format's first real foothold here. Family and animation hold strong with Kung Fu Panda and WALL-E. The pattern is HBO's prestige drama arriving in force, with The Wire appearing across four separate seasons. The surprises are the awards-season foreign and indie titles, No Country for Old Men, The Lives of Others and La Vie en Rose, charting among blockbusters. A year when high-definition discs first crept onto a list still ruled by DVD.
