I don't know about that one per se but didn't a previous animated GL DVD do pretty well? I believe it came out either last year or 2009? I don't feel like looking it up right now but I seem to remember it having good sales and reviews.

I've wondered if the disparity in sales is due to Emerald Knights being an anthology thing while First Flight was most certainly a Hal Jordan origin film.

Here's a comparison with 'Batman: Gotham Knight':

Batman: Gotham Knight
US DVD Sales: $8,060,105

1st Week: 07/13/2008 $4,529,852

In 2 weeks, GLEK has made 1/4 of what BGK made in one.
