Avatar Stays Strong in Week 5 - Canadian, North American, UK & Australian Box Office January 15, 2010 Weekend

No sign of any film taking over the top from Avatar's success, it stays strong as #1 in it's 5th week and likely will even pick up steam with it's two 2 Golden Globe wins (director, film - drama). The Book of Eli does land the #2 stop on both the Canadian & North American charts, but only hits #6 in the UK. The Spy Next Door debuts in the top ten of the Canadian & North American charts and Up in the Air makes it's UK debut at #5. Australia gets Tooth Fairy before the rest of us and it takes the #2 spot.
