Pass the Popcorn: What Were the Most Watched Movies in Hotel Rooms in January?

By Terry Trucco

Pass the Popcorn | tags: End of Watch, Flight, Here Comes the Boom, hotel room movies, Life of Pi, Lincoln, LodgeNet, Looper, Pitch Perfect, Skyfall, Taken 2, Wreck-it Ralph | February 5, 2013

Abraham Lincoln or James Bond? That seemed the big question hotel guests pondered when choosing in-room movies last month.  (Denzel Washington and Liam Neeson were also deep in the mix.)  To find out if Oscar contenders trumped blockbusters for the top spots, read on.

As always, our monthly movie round-up comes courtesy of LodgeNet, suppliers of in-room entertainment to 1.6 million hotel rooms in the U.S and Canada.

 

The Nation and Canada

1. Skyfall

2. Flight

3. Lincoln

4. Taken 2

5. Wreck-it Ralph

6. Here Comes the Boom

7. Life of Pi

8. Pitch Perfect

9. Looper

10. End of Watch

 

New York City

1. Skyfall

2. Flight

3. Lincoln

4. Taken 2

5. Life of Pi

6. Pitch Perfect

7. Here Comes the Boom

8. Wreck-it Ralph

9. Looper

10. End of Watch

 

Check in again in early March to see how February’s marquee releases  – Argo, Silver Linings Playbook, This is 40, Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn 2 and more – played on hotel room small screens (and if they muscled out Mr. Bond.)

  • Thanks for the reminder that an evening in a hotel is a great way to catch one of the Oscar-nominated movies or performances that we missed — Lincoln, Flight, Life of Pi and so on.
