HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 29, 2000 -- They were hits on the big screen and now they’re even bigger hits on DVD.
“Gladiator” and “X-Men” each took in $60 million in DVD sales and VHS rentals over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The estimates for “X-Men's” home video and DVD sales even surpassed the film’s opening weekend domestic gross of $57.5 million over the summer. The summer hit features an ensemble cast including Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, James Marsden, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos and Anna Paquin.
“Gladiator’s” numbers, however, were most impressive considering the film, starring Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix and Connie Nielsen, isn’t available to purchase in the VHS format -– a format that most home movie watchers use.
Currently in the United States, there are about 9 million DVD players compare

DreamWorks' "Gladiator" should be victorious again on the box office battlefield this weekend.
With "Gladiator" still commanding a 30% first-choice tracking score among opening and released movies, there's little doubt the R-rated action adventure will keep a tight grip on the top spot.
If "Gladiator" slips 36% from its $34.8 million opening, its second weekend tribute will still be a handsome sum of about $22 million.
DreamWorks is distributing "Gladiator" domestically, while Universal is releasing it internationally. The two studios co-financed the film, which reportedly cost $103 million to make, and are 50-50 partners, sharing equally in its success.
Directed by Ridley Scott, it stars Russell Crowe.
Warner Bros. and Franchise Pictures' PG-13 rated sci-fi action adventure "Battlefield Earth," opening at 3,307 theaters, should w

SANTA MONICA, Calif., January 24, 2000 -- Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane!
No, it's another "Spider-Man" rumor.
For nearly seven years, speculation has run rampant among comic-book geeks and genre-film fanatics about the red-and-blue building-climbing superhero. Nearly every director worth his box-office salt has been linked to "Spider-Man" at one time or another, beginning with no less than James Cameron ("Titanic") and ending with Sam Raimi ("A Simple Plan," "For Love of the Game"), who is now supposedly the front-runner for the job.
One thing's for certain: "Spider-Man," one of the most highly anticipated films in memory, is now on the fast track at Columbia Pictures. The studio wants to release the film in summer 2001, and that means a director is expected to be hired soon -- perhaps within a few weeks. At long last, Marvel Comics' biggest franchis
