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

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

Does anyone know if STID was shown or even filmed in that new format that the Hobbit was filmed in? I think its called High Frame Rate.

No, it wasn't.

Not for me. Love the movie and if Paramount decides not to do a third, we went out on top.

There'll definitely be another movie.

With this one underperforming, I won't count my chickens until they're hatched.

Nothing wrong with erring on the side of caution.

I believe STID will repeat Star Trek box office in USA and will have a small increase in other countries compared with first one. But to my disappointment, I am convinced of that the film will not reach more than $ 450 million Worldwide.

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

$450 million worldwide would fall short of Paramount's hopes for how much the franchise could grow with STiD, but it would be good enough, especially for a franchise that was flat on its back just 10 years ago, and it would still place Trek among Paramount's top franchises. The budget for the next one will likely just be trimmed back a bit. There's still a long way to go with the foreign numbers, though, so we'll see where we end up.

From Box Office Mojo:

Friday - $10,001,000
Saturday - $14,420,000
Sunday - $13,579,000

According to the estimates STiD was a very close #3 on Saturday and went up to #2 on Sunday.

Those are fantastic numbers..it came fairly close on Saturday to TH3 ($245k!), and beat it on Sunday! Word of mouth vs HT3's wom.

The movie has made $248,927,000 worldwide.

OS numbers are pretty bad but no new markets have opened, it looks like around a 40-50 percent drop across the board OS.

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

STiD should make around $10 million on Monday for a $48 million 4-day weekend.

Hmm disappointing overseas number.

OS numbers are pretty bad

Those numbers haven't really been updated since 19th May.

 

[Borgminister]

Plus the movie has yet to open in some fairly big markets.

^^^
There was an update for the foreign numbers today. $13.1 million added for a total of $102.1 million so far. That's from 15 markets. Lots of markets to go still.

Look at the Date on BOM. Other sites aren't even that up-to-date.

if Paramount decides not to do a third

You're so cute.

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

The numbers for the individual countries lag on BOM, and on other sites, but if you look at the date for the foreign total of $102.1 million you'll see it's today's date. They update the individual countries when they get more particularized information.

 

[Borgminister]

Okay so where was 2009 by comparison? (I'm so lazy)

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

STiD has a much more staggered international release than Star Trek, but it's been posting good gains in the territories it's been released in so far. It's already made over 80% of Star Trek's foreign total.

Only the Hobbit was filmed that way.

 

[Flake]

That 13m is from 40odd markets not 15

EDIT: where does it say 15?
EDIT2: definitely from 40countries

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

BOM only has 15 individual territories listed. But you're absolutely right, Flake. It is currently 40 territories. I had forgotten that.

They also give the film a budget of 250 million.
