That's a pretty good plunge...

A 65% drop is standard the day after Memorial Day.

Thats almost a half million more than I predicted. Great!
Trek also made $2.7m in China today as well. No idea if that is good or bad so let's assume good
Maybe we will get a $20-30m dollar overseas week?
According to BOM, Star Trek '09 made 8.6M total in China, so I would say that is very good.

On a weekday, to boot!
OK. So we are at $102,100,000 overseas at the moment.
If I add all of Star Trek 2009 totals from the countries STID is yet to open in + $35m from CHINA (Might not get that much, but lets be optimistic!)
---------------
Now lets assume the gross from the other opening countries excluding China increases from ST09 by:
So I think at the moment the range for the overseas total is between $195-$240m and WW total of between $415-$480m
Also I believe the marketing in SE Asia focuses more on Benedict Cumberbatch. If Trek makes big $$$ from SE Asia I bet Cumberbatch will be back in the next one.

$102m is the total so far.
$30m to come from those countries that have already opened (guess, might be way off)
$35m from CHINA (might happen now!)
$35m from countries yet to open, at ST09 levels.
$202m total

Now lets assume the gross from the other opening countries excluding China increases from ST09 by:
30% increase = $45m - $212m Total
50% increase = $52m - $219m
80% increase = $62m - $229m
100% increase = $70m - $237m
50% increase = $52m - $219m
80% increase = $62m - $229m
100% increase = $70m - $237m
So I think at the moment the range for the overseas total is between $195-$240m and WW total of between $415-$480m
Also I believe the marketing in SE Asia focuses more on Benedict Cumberbatch. If Trek makes big $$$ from SE Asia I bet Cumberbatch will be back in the next one.

Sophisticated British men are a "thing" for Korean and Japanese women in the same way "tall, dark, and handsome" is in the US. I have no doubt Cumby has initiated a few "squwees!" here and there.
I would agree that US$30m more from the countries it has already opened in is low.
i.e. Box Office Mojo figure for the UK = US$12.95m
UK Box office upto the 26th May = GB£19.42m = US$29.1m Which means the UK alone will have added something like US$17m

BoxOffice.com is reporting $261,552,337 worldwide gross as of 28th.
The film opened in China with 25m CNY on its opening day (that's $4.04 million. The total Chinese box office for the same day was 11 million, so STID took a sizeable percentage.) The Chinese are predicting it will take in $25m in the first week.

They might, because there will be a Star Wars movie in the summer of 2016. It's been widely reported that there will be one each year starting 2015.

Star Trek made $17 million on the Sat-Sun of its third weekend, and that was with the inflated business of Memorial Day weekend. $18-20 million for Sat-Sun for STiD on a regular weekend would be a Herculean task. I think it'll make $18-21 million for the full Friday-to-Sunday weekend.
