Phil in the Blank Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 So unless this Star Trek did roughly 2.7x more than the best OS performance of the last 11 ST movies it would had been a failure? Your a crazy crazy man. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Because 300M-plus is considered good for a $200M budgeted sci-fi action sequel. At same scales, both nonsequle PR and WWZ did it. Paramount marketed the shit out of it. They even did a one-month-long World Tour to promote it. Same group of people still dont want to accept the fact STID is big disappointment both DOM and OS. They over hyped the shit out of it. And now they celebrate it as if it were a huge achivement. you definitely bring up some good points. It looks like no matter how hard they try Star Trek will never be a huge performer overseas. Overall STID is not a big hit by any means. It barely doubled its budget.

Your a crazy crazy man. None of those films had STiD, there is no comparison between STiD and a 20 year old film with a fifth of the budget. A film with a blockbuster budget making less than 250M OS in 2013 just isn't an impressive feat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a stigma. Comparing it to another franchise and going lol only $230M does not do it justice. It is is not very good Boxoffice Analysis in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyla Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Star Trek Into Darkness boldly went into Japan and scored a $4.3m debut from 319 theatres. Overall the sci-fi added $4.5m from 489 in eight territories to reach $231.3m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franchises can change how the market sees them if you make them look more blockbustery. The first three films in the Fast franchise made less than 110M OS (worse than ST 09), but it turned into a blockbuster anyway and this year made 550M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how much I love the first Trek, I played the conservative with my 548m prediction and yet, I was heavily disappointed by its gross. There's no excuse, Paramount promoted STiD the hell of it, It had the goodwill from the first, 3D and developed markets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cannot be considered bad if only you predicted that much, but if more than 50% of the folks here predict, like 1b or close to it, 700m will be considered bad.

John Marston Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Probably the biggest disappointment of the year. Latin America and most of Europe let this movie down big time. Still a lot of work to do to get Star Trek to finally be a big player overseas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
