Monday box office etc

"Disturbia" opened very nicely this weekend, with $23 million in just under 3,000 theaters. Atta boy, Shia. Now go rent "Rear Window," kids.
The rest of the new releases tanked. "Perfect Stranger," $11.5 million; "Pathfinder," $4.8; "Redline," $4; "Aqua Teen Hunger Force," only $3.1 (at only 877 theaters). "Blades of Glory" and "Meet the Robinsons" were still the broad-appeal favorites. "300" is finally sloping off (after crossing the $200 million mark total) and "Grindhouse" is toast (down two-thirds its second week out; can Harvey take a hacksaw and separate these Siamese twins fast enough?).
