For the third straight weekend, moviegoers made the teen thriller Disturbia the top choice spending an estimated $9.1M on the Paramount release.
After 17 days, the PG-13 sleeper hit has raked in a impressive $52.2M and could be headed for a $70M final. Produced by DreamWorks for only $23M, Disturbia is the first film to stay on top for back-to-back-to-back frames since Ben Stiller's holiday season smash Night at the Museum. Also, Paramount got to enjoy five straight weeks at number one with the Shia LaBeouf hit which followed on the heels of the two-week reign of Blades of Glory.
The last studio to accomplish this feat was Buena Vista in 2004 when The Incredibles claimed the top spot for two weeks followed by a three-week reign for National Treasure"
