More people considered BvS a keeper?

Before posing the question, you have to actually establish that BvS beat Civil War at home sales.
Should you do that, it'll still be a boring question, but at least it will have legitimate grounds. -

So 11 weeks of DVD sales and 13 weeks of Blu Ray sales for BvS yielded a tiny amount more revenue than 8 weeks of DVD and Blu Ray sales for CA:CW. Of course, neither of these include the sales spikes that both would likely have received during the holiday season, since the data only runs up to early November, and it also completely ignores the fact that digital HD sales are not included in this data. But, hey, celebrate an artificial "victory". You be you.

3 week difference is irrelevant at this point.

Because Civil War had one version while BvS had multiple with the extras scattered among the different versions so they could triple dip on their own fans. andre had a bid where he bragged about having 3 copies himself.
great question!Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

Not that you're looking for an answer, but here's a possible one. Civil War was put out by disney. Disney is notorious for rarely if ever lowering prices. BvS has been on the under 10 sale point multiple times since it's release (the blu-ray version). so more consumers are willing to buy it because it's less expensive.
As an example, right now at Best Buy you can get BvS on blu-ray for 12.99 and Civil War for 24.99. More people are going to be swayed to the cheaper movie. -

That Disney doesn't lower their prices often? Are you new to buying things? This is not exactly a news story. Everyone knows this. This is why back in the days of home video, they'd say they were putting movies "back in the vault". That way they could charge a lot for videos and compel people to buy them because they were only available for a limited time.
Seriously? I thought EVERYONE knew this? -

First.BvS was cheaper, not Civil War.
And I pointed out that RIGHT NOW if you went to Best Buy, you'd spend 10 dollars more for Civil War than you would for BvS.
I know I wrote that right in the post.
Also, at amazon.comBvS 12.99, Civil War 19.99 (as of this post)
Even deepdiscount.com (which as you'll see is not living up to that name) has BvS for 24.95.and Civil War for for 26.35 (really? where's the "deep" discount?).
Google could've shown you all this. -

And I'm actually surprised Civil War is under $24.99 Probably because it's on Netflix right now so they softened the price.Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

You're assuming the consumer picks a movie based on it's price alone. That's a mistake. It is a factor but that's it. When a product is better consumers often pay more for it. When it comes to movies, music, etc. consumers often already know the product they're buying.
So assuming consumers would pick BvS over Civil War based on it's price alone is a flawed argument.
Also retailers have different prices. Walmart has BvS as high as $32.
