STID "tracking" for $85-90 million opening [U.S. box office]

Or it's as if someone had The Beatles do an album in the Rolling Stones style rock. (A friend always said Superman and Batman were the Beatles and Rolling Stones of comics.)

Yeah. Much like Star Trek and Star Wars are the Beatles and Rolling Stones of sci fi. You can like both, but not both equally.
I like Batman and Superman equally.

I like The Beatles and The Stones equally.

I like Star Trek and Star Wars equally.

It's really not too difficult.

Absolutely™!
It'd be moronic to say it's impossible.
 
STID opened with $3.1 million in this weekend in Brazil. Whereas Star Trek 2009 grossed only $ 1.9 million, that calls for a celebration. Besides country's media coverage has largely focused on Confederations Cup soccer tournament.
I believe the film range from 10 to 20 million dollars.

This is excellent news!

Does this $3.1m figure include the previews from the previous 4 weeks? If so I think it will be toward the lower end of your prediction but hopefully it finishes at the higher end! 5x-10x increase over ST09!

I don't think so.
Site Box Office is clear. "The film is already 70% ahead of its predecessor's Brazilian cume after a splendid $3.1 million opening weekend in Brazil"

STID opened on june 14th (friday).

On boxofficemojo there are 4 weeks of previews totalling 0.88m. It could be that the 3.1m includes those previews. We will find out when BOM publishes the weekend chart.

It had the least decline among holdover movies, when considering it lost over 800 theaters (only "Now you see me" had a smaller decline but that one added theaters)

That's a great hold for STID... should make $235 million domestically.

If the next movie is going to come in 2016, it's starting to get crowded already.

Last week Marvel announced an untitled film for May 6, 2016.

And today Sony announced June 10, 2016 for Amazing Spider-Man 3.
 
Why put the next Star Trek film into a summer slot? Why not another slot, where it can dominate the market?

I was looking at the 2016 film schedule at Wikipedia. Someone is making an Angry Birds movie. Why?
 
Currently Into Darkness is Number 8 in the box office sales

Currently, STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS, is number 8:confused: in total box office sales, Does anybody know if during any of the past STAR TREK MOVIES has any movie gone back up after dropping to 8 before? Please advise??
 
Re: Currently Into Darkness is Number 8 in the box office sales

Merging with the box office thread.

Studios sometimes try that, but the lower traffic outside of the summer and the November/December frame makes it a risky proposition for big budget films. March is the best month outside of the summer and the end-of-year holidays, but March has only delivered two films that have grossed over $250 million domestic and six that have grossed over $200 million domestic.
