Rentrak Cross-Platform Entertainment Rankings - December 2, 2014

PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Rentrak (NASDAQ: RENT), the leader in precisely measuring movies and TV everywhere, today announced the top weekly cross-platform entertainment rankings for Dec. 2, 2014.

Audiences around the world have a seemingly insatiable appetite for "The Hunger Games" as "Mockingjay, Part 1" has impressively earned $480.1 million globally in its first 10 days of release, passing the $250 million mark in 86 international markets and solidifying its position at the top of both the North American, international and worldwide box office charts.

Movies on Demand again features two summer hits in the top spots, with Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill in "22 Jump Street" blasting its way into first place while Melissa McCarthy's comedy "Tammy" moves to second after landing in first last week. 

Digital Movie Purchases & Rentals were led by the well-reviewed action sequel "Dawn of the Planet of The Apes" followed in second by Angelina Jolie in the box office hit "Maleficent."

"The Walking Dead" is alive and well in its run up to the mid-season finale and thus heavily engaged viewers on cable and on social media, while Telemundo's "Senora Acero" and CBS's "NCIS" made it a one-two punch on our Broadcast Telecast viewer engagement chart.
