Olive Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I haven't noticed much marketing in China yet. The first made $10M in China, this one may triple that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Star Trek's DNA is probably too geeky,whatever you try to make it appealing can't hide that.it's the only explanation imo. The last one did well DOM. Star Trek is as geeky as superhero movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) The last one did well DOM. Star Trek is as geeky as superhero movies.the US is the land of birth of Star Trek,with the largest community of fans..the comparison with os markets is irrelevant.Superhero movies aren't geeky at all,they're mainstream from now on,and comicbook fans were disappointed by IM3 because it appealed to great audiences,not geeks.

I never saw anything Star Trek related before 09 and liked the film. The trailers look good, this should gross more than Battleship and other crappy action films. Liking comic books and reading them is nerdy. So what is the difference between comic book movie and start trek movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manu Delpech Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Losing your shit over comic book movies is geeky, mainstream audiences can dig or love superhero movies, but it's something on an entirely different level for geeks, or at least, that's how I feel about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am saying the movies are geeks reading comics is geeky. Just like watch Star Trek on tv show or reading star trek books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some comic book fans were disappointed by Iron Man 3, but many of us loved it. I'm as geeky as they get and probably a bigger Iron Man fan than many of the whiners and I thoroughly enjoyed the film.

People thinking reading comic books is geeky. People think watching Star Trek is geeky. People think Star Trek films are also geeky. People think comic book films aren't geeky. People are also quite stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Is 250M OS the goal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 300M, I think. Needs to do well in developing markets tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juni78ukr Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 ST2 is not increasing 2x in the key markets (UK + Australia). Even 1.5x might not happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertron Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 $220-240m seems to be an appropriate goal I think.Given that ST09 did an abysmal $125m, anything over $200m is a great number. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Too bad the competition is tougher than ever. I hope 300 M happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juni78ukr Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Saw a TV-spot during russian Formula-1 translation. 3 times in 30 minutes. Apparently they spent quite a lot for advertising. Too bad they cant win audience with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 I always said 250M OS would be a fantastic number, but everyone kept talking about 300-400M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
