Charts and That

21 November 2017

Yep, another week, another bunch of numbers to throw your way as we slog through the last of November. This will be the last chart update of November considering yours truly is off adventuring next week. So, let’s have a look, shall we?

Starting with movies it’s obvious who’s up top this week. Justice League has landed in the UK, cracking a whopping £7 million in box office sales. When the numbers were released for the US and other territories, it was reported that the earnings for this title are below predictions, casting doubt on the future of the DCCU.

  1. Justice League
  2. Paddington 2
  3. Murder on the Orient Express
  4. Thor Ragnarok
  5. A Bad Moms Christmas
  6. Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool
  7. The Death of Stalin
  8. Jigsaw
  9. The Florida Project
  10. Exterminating Angel – Met Opera 2017

 

Next, we’ll have a gander at games. It’s been an odd weekend for some titles, including Battlefront 2, which has seen its far share of controversy, over its supposed broken progression system and loot boxes. It failed to reach the number one spot, despite being released last Friday, which is never a good sign. Thousands of people refunded their preorders, which is sure to send a message. Two new Pokémon games though.

  1. Call of Duty: WW2
  2. Star Wars Battlefront 2
  3. FIFA 18
  4. Pokémon Ultra Sun
  5. Pokémon Ultra Moon
  6. Assassin’s Creed Origins
  7. The Sims 4
  8. A. Noire Remastered
  9. Super Mario Odyssey
  10. Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2

 

Finally, we have music, where once again, very little has changed. The usual suspects still hold most of the positions, with Camila Cabello still at the top and Post Malone in the top three. New additions include Eminem’s Walk on Water and… Big Shaq’s Man’s Not Hot which is arguably the only decent banger to come out of 2017.

  1. Havana– Camila Cabello Ft. Young Thug
  2. Anywhere – Rita Ora
  3. Rockstar– Post Malone Ft. 21 Savage
  4. Too Good at Goodbyes – Sam Smith
  5. Silence– Marshmello Ft. Khalid
  6. Perfect – Ed Sheeran
  7. Walk on Water – Eminem Ft. Beyoncé
  8. Man’s Not Hot – Big Shaq
  9. Dusk till Dawn – Zayn Ft. Sia
  10. Finders Keepers – Mabel Ft Kojo Funds

Man’s not hot.

Until next time.

  • Food Food Review: Las Iguanas, Newcastle
    4/5 If you love a good theme, Las Iguanas is a restaurant you might like to try. The Latin American-style chain has restaurants all over the country, but I recently popped into the one on Grey Street just down from the Theatre Royal. As always, the restaurant itself is pristine and the atmosphere is super […]

  • Books Book Review: 1984 by George Orwell
    1/5 1984 is always cited as one of the best books ever written. It’s supposed to be intelligent, sharp and profound. Instead, I found it to be dull, rambling and unremarkable. Oh, and rampantly sexist. George Orwell was clever – I’ve read his essays and I like them. But 1984? It was hard to believe […]
