Currently, the dominant VOD titles are Sony’s standard-price ”Monster Hunter” and PVOD “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run.” However, the other #1 is Nicholas Jarecki’s “Crisis” (Quiver) in its second week. The tripych of opiate-crisis stories starring Gary Oldman and Armie Hammer showed initial response last week and is now tops at Apple TV (which often foretells success later at other sites). For some reason (possibly a listed price of $9.99?), it doesn’t show up on the top 500 titles at Google Play.

The consistently popular “The Croods: A New Age” (Universal) joined “Monsters” in charting at all four. It has been a consistent performer for nearly three months, starting at Christmas at $19.99, now at a reduced price. “Cosmic Sin,” the only fresh release, placed on three charts. A futuristic alien attack film with Bruce Willis second billed to Frank Grillo, it’s the latest action VOD release for the “Die Hard” star. The other fresh entry of note is “Dark Web: Cicada 3301” (Lionsgate). Based on a real-life internet codebreaking group, this thriller placed both at Apple TV and Google Play. Josh Ethan Johnson Among top category Oscar nominees, only the PVOD “Minari” (A24) has any top 10 presence, with two #10 slots. With most contenders tied up by their streaming homes, the remaining action will be for “Promising Young Woman” (Focus), which should soon reduce its price, and “The Father” (Sony Pictures Classics), which goes PVOD March 26. Netflix may have room for revived interest among their many contenders. The current #1 is “Yes Day” from veteran indie director Miguel Arteta (“Chuck and Buck,” “The Good Girl”). The family comedy stars Jennifer Garner and Edgar Ramirez (“Carlos”). You never know what will show up there. Apple TV Ranked by number of transactions, with position as of Monday, March 15
