Star Trek 12 Gets Release Date
I'm not sure if its Star Trek 12 or Star Trek 2, but the release date is June 29, 2012.
http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2010/01/11...-nothing-else/ UPDATE: Paramount has confirmed to MTV that the projected release date for the "Star Trek" sequel is indeed June 29, 2012. This counts as news, but there's not much to it. We all know there's a "Star Trek" sequel coming. Hell, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, writers/producers of the May reboot, were talking about sequel possibilities as far back as the week after the first movie came out. Now we have a date to pin our hopes to: June 29, 2012. Nothing else is known or announced, so don't ask. Maybe director J.J. Abrams will return to helm the sequel, maybe he won't. Maybe Khan will be the villain, maybe not. For all we know, the plan is to give us an epic "Star Trek Meets Star Wars" crossover. Could happen, right? The news comes from a variety of sources, including Ain't It Cool News and Box Office Mojo, but there's no Paramount-issued press release that I can find. The information ran through some trustworthy sources, but we've yet to receive comment from the studio directly. Regardless, there really hasn't ever been any doubt that we'd be seeing more "Star Trek." Abrams' take on the series made it friendly to an entirely new, much wider audience than its ever known before. Were you anything less than certain that a "Star Trek" sequel was coming eventually? Where would you like the story to go from where it is now? Any specific hopes for the sequel? |

A couple of things...I alluded to it earlier, but Trek is somewhat niche. Limited female appeal and limited under 21 appeal. It also had much stronger competition this time in contrast to 2009 when it was basically the only big movie at the time it opened. IM 3 and Gatsby both opened huge in the weeks prior. In 2009 it's competition was a horrible Wolverine film nobody liked and that was basically it. http://boxofficemojo.com/weekly/char...9&wk=19&p=.htm

If there's another Star Trek film with this cast, the budget will be nowhere near $190 million dollars. I'd venture to say that $125 would be the limit. |

Your probably right. That's why most the films with the original cast and next generation had limited budgets. Trek has sort of always had a limited gross ceiling. Limited audience.

Star Trek VI had a $27 million budget, and made $96 million.
So you can kind of see Dane's point when he says Paramount didn't spend $190 million on a movie to break even.

I wonder what those numbers translate into today's dollars? The budgets for these summer blockbusters has gotten ridiculously high.

Iron Man 3 has already made a billion dollars worldwide (with a budget of only 200 million). It's opening weekend was 174 million. Paramount has to be disappointed with Star Trek in comparison.

I haven't found if the 3d conversion is in the 190m total budget, nor have I seen the 3d tally for opening weekend. That conversion was expensive if it is additional investment. It is not a flop, but it is not going to spawn another massive budget. |

The more I reflect on this pile of shit, the more I realize how big of a pile of shit it really is. Jesus, way to mail it in, JJ.

How much of the low opening weekend numbers can be attributed to people not wanting to get caught in the opening weekend rush? I know I am definitely one of those people; I'm planning on seeing it this weekend...
