"Hannah Montana" Scores a Box Office Touchdown on Super Bowl Weekend

"Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert" opened at the top of the box office this weekend with an early earnings report of $29 million (averaging out to $42,460 per theater). Not only is the film the top draw of this weekend, but it also set a few new box office records.
The biggest film debut ever during Super Bowl weekend.
The first time that a film shown only in 683 theaters went to number one.
It is one of the best preselling movies, with most showings selling out before the filmopening.
Disney has now changed their minds about the film's one week run. Since demand to see the concert is so great, Disney says it plans to run the concert film as long as the public stays interested in it. That is welcome news to all of the fans who couldn't get or afford tickets to the concert or those lived too far away from one of the tour stops. Now everyone really does have a chance to see it.
