By Thomas K. Arnold

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "Fool's Gold," an adventure comedy starring Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson, topped the latest DVD sales and rental charts Wednesday.

The film, which earned $70.2 million at the domestic box office in the week ending June 22, handily nabbed the No. 1 position on the Nielsen VideoScan sales chart. "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins," a Martin Lawrence comedy that grossed $42.2 million, debuted at No. 2. Last week's champ, "The Bucket List," fell to No. 3.

"Gold" also topped Home Media Magazine's video rental chart, with the sci-fi actioner "Jumper" holding at No. 2 for a second week. "Bucket List" fell to No. 3, and "Roscoe Jenkins" debuted at No. 4.

"Be Kind Rewind," a quirky comedy starring Jack Black and Mos Def, debuted at No. 7 on the sales chart and at No. 6 on the rental chart. It earned $11 million at the box office.

"Jumper" was the No. 1 Blu-ray Disc seller for a second week, narrowly outpacing "Fool's Gold." "Bucket List" was No. 3.
