The September 28 YouTube ten is a weekend-release stack. KATSEYE at 1 is the September 26 SNL premiere landing two days later. Doomsday at 2 and Fortnitemares at 3 are theatrical and game trailers with dated payoffs on December 18 and October 1. Music still fills 1, 4, 7, and 10, so the board is not only Marvel. Swift falling 1 to 7 after VMA night shows how fast a lyric-video lead can rotate once a live clip arrives.
