Welcome again to our weekly feature where we look at the most popular streaming movies and TV shows in Australia based on data collected by streaming search engine JustWatch. Data includes subscription streaming as well as transactional streaming titles. Click here to read last week's roundup.
The Accountant 2 arrives on Prime Video and was the most-streamed movie for the week - the first movie, The Accountant (also on Binge, Foxtel Now), also re-enters the top 10, in 4th place.
The first title in this week's Max domination is its original film Mountainhead - a kind of unofficial Successor spin-off that actually works well in that universe - it was second.
In third place was Babygirl from Prime Video.
Disney+'s Predator themed animated anthology movie Predator: Killer of Killers debuts in 5th place.
Mickey 17 bombed at the box office, but it's receiving a second-life on streaming via Max - it was 6th.
STRAW on Netflix was 7th, and Max's monopoly on Harry Potter movies but the recent cast announcements of the TV reboot meant that Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was back in the top 10, in 9th.
And finally, 28 Weeks Later returns to the top 10 in 10th thanks to the about to be released new sequel. "28 Days Later" would have been here instead of this inferior sequel, but it's one of those films that have been lost to the streaming ether, but hopefully Disney+ gets it restored and released soon.
Pretty much every title in the top 10 changed, meaning "Fountain of Youth", "The Dive", "The Substance", "A Complete Unknown", "Spit", "A Widow's Game", "Talk to Me", "Blood", and "Mission: Impossible" all had to go.

The Max domination continues in television, with the Max exclusive And Just Like That ... in third place.
The Last of Us has finished its first-shown run, and the deal with Binge has expired, meaning it too has found an exclusive home on Max.
The Survivors was 5th, debuting along with "Stick" (Apple TV+) in 6th.
And finally, new episodes of Rick and Morty has arrived - and you guessed it, it's a Max exclusive.
So an impressive week for Max. If only they can finally decide on a name for the platform, because I'm not going through and changing all references to "HBO Max" only for it to all change to something else later.
"Sirens", "The Rookie", "Murderbot", "The Pitt", and "Your Friends & Neighbors" all left the top 10.
