Friday Estimate - $1.5 million

[chrisspringob]

EARLY WEEKEND ESTIMATES from DHD:

1. THE HANGOVER - $34 million
2. UP - $32.5 million
3. PELHAM 1 2 3 - $24 million
4. NATM 2 - $9.5 million
5. LAND OF THE LOST - $8.9 million
6. IMAGINE THAT - $6 million
7. STAR TREK - $4.8 million
8. TERMINATOR SALVATION - $4.7 million
9. DRAG ME TO HELL - $3.7 million
10. ANGELS & DEMONS - $3.8 million

I think Trek's estimate is on the low end, especially since some of the numbers she posted in her write-up don't match what she listed at the end of the article.

The Hangover dropped less than 25% which is amazing for a second weekend, and already over $105 million. It's really outpacing Wedding Crashers, which made $209 million.

Nikki always updates her post about 10 times over the course of the weekend, and doesn't consistently update all the numbers simultaneously. It's impossible to know if she actually has any Saturday numbers for Star Trek, or if $4.8 million is just based off of what it made on Friday.

Yeah, it seems like the latter.

It seems none can give definite domestic numbers for ST:TMP adjusted for 2009 inflation. Mojo says $235 million, westegg.com/inflation says $240.7 million, Box Office says $239.1 million. I think best way is just to calculate how many tickets ST:TMP sold at the box office in 1979.
According to Lee´Movies ST:TMP grossed 82.258 million divided by 2.47* = 33. 303 million tickets sold
According to Mojo ST:TMP grossed 82.258 million divided by 2.51* = 32.771 million tickets sold
It would be interesting to see how many ticket Star Trek sold after it finish it box office run.
(* average ticket price)

33.426 million by the end of the week.

Interesting. How do you come up with this numbers?

$240 million divided by $7.18

Looks like it made almost $6 million this past weekend and is closing in on $240 million domestic since the release.
