Star Trek should have made nearly all of it's money when Transformers is released. There is nothing to worry about.

Who knows? All the holdover movies dropped a lot more than they usually so over Memorial Day weekend (although the weekend itself is up a fraction from last year).
This is how the Top 4 did last Memorial Day Monday"
Indy4 - $26.8 million
Prince Caspian - $7 million
Iron Man - 5.7 million
What Happens in Vegas - $2.2 million
Star Trek could do somewhere around what Iron Man did, but could make a little bit more. Star Trek's projected Saturday and Sunday drops are identical to Iron Man's drops, and Iron Man dropped 20% on Memorial Day. So if Star Trek drops 20%, it will make $6.1 million.
But we'll see.

It's making Batman Begins numbers (as I always thought it would) and that is more than respectable. I think Paramount has to be pretty happy at this point--if they're happy, a sequel is a go. No need to worry or wring your hands at these numbers.

I'm surprised they haven't staked out a date yet for a sequel. If they shoot for 2011, June is full (Cars 2, Kung Fu Panda 2, and Green Lantern), July is worse (Transformers 3, HP, and Paramount's Captain America) and May is a little scary with Spider-Man 4 and Paramount's own Thor.
I wonder if they'll wait until 2012 for a sequel.

I don't mind waiting--and the anticipation, following the success of this film, will only build more strongly.
Re: Weekend Estimates - Star Trek #3 - $29 million - $191 million
True. I'd also prefer they don't just rush sequels out without taking the time to properly do them and promote them. The extra 5 months for Star Trek probably translated into millions and millions in extra box office.

Delaying the release date to May 2009 was a really smart move by Paramount. If it been released last December I think it would have made much less overall.

There'll likely be a few more changes to the 2011 calendar, in particular I think there's a strong chance that Paramount/DreamWorks (who still co-own the franchise despite their split) will move Transformers 3 back to the July 4th weekend of 2012. That's the release date Michael Bay wants and I think they may well agree to it. That would open up the July 4th weekend of 2011 for Star Trek XII if Paramount is willing to stake out such a big date for it.
Re: Weekend Estimates - Star Trek #3 - $29 million - $191 million
Yeah, I can't imagine Michael Bay wants to do Transformers without any breaks. He already was enthused that he had to move forward with Transformers 2 so quickly, so if they swapped it with Trek it could work.
This would jive with what I think Paramount should do...Transformers/Star Trek in different Summers, along with two Marvel productions and whatever else Paramount makes. This would ensure pretty good box office every year for a while.

It's a good thing T4 can rely on better international numbers than Trek, because at this rate it'll be hard pressed to recoup its ridiculous 200M budget domestically.
