J.J. Abrams sequel to his successful 2009 relaunch of the lauded sci-fi series didn&#8217;t quite reach the universal masses as planned, but it didn&#8217;t lose any speed either on its way to claiming top honors around the world. Here are the studio estimates:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Star Trek Into Darkness ($70.5 million)<\/p>\n<p>2. Iron Man 3 ($35.1 million)<\/p>\n<p>3. The Great Gatsby ($23.4 million)<\/p>\n<p>4. Pain &#038; Gain ($3.1 million)<\/p>\n<p>5. The Croods ($2.7 million)<\/p>\n<p>6. 42 ($2.7 million)<\/p>\n<p>7. Oblivion ($2.2 million)<\/p>\n<p>8. Mud ($2.2 million)<\/p>\n<p>9. Tyler Perry Presents Peeples ($2.1 million)<\/p>\n<p>10. The Big Wedding ($1.1 million)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Analysis<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Star Trek Into Darkness<\/strong><\/em> went with the often-utilized Wednesday summer movie season opening, and when factoring in those days in addition to the weekend, its domestic total has flown to $84 million. In comparison, the 2009 release snagged $75.2 during the standard Fri-Sun frame and rose to $87.2 over its first 4 days. Paramount was expecting a five-day total of around $100 million. And perhaps this performance could be a construed as a letdown when considering a bunch of heavy hitters (<em>Fast &#038; Furious 6<\/em>, <em>The Hangover Part III<\/em>) are set to join the party this coming Memorial Day weekend, which will definitely vie for moviegoers attention (cash). Also, the first installment didn&#8217;t experience the usual lopsided overseas totals to pad the stats (domestic was higher than international grosses in 2009), therefore, the $190 million production budget may not be recouped until the DVD\/On-Demand run even though the sequel will playing on more screens across the globe and could lead to a potential 50\/50 split. Plus, this has the benefit\/drawback of being screened in 3D a.k.a. rip-off ticket prices. That being said, this will more than likely amass a total eclipsing $400 million worldwide by the time its theatrical jaunt (roughly 3 months) is complete. As of this report, the worldwide total is just under $160 million.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Iron Man 3<\/strong><\/em> is now up to $337 million stateside, surpassing its franchise predecessors. This is already over a $1 billion worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>With the re-release of <em><strong>Jurassic Park<\/strong><\/em> in 3D (ahem, greedy bastards), the flick has become just the 16th to cross the $400 million domestic mark.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>The Croods<\/strong><\/em> currently hold the longest streak in the top ten with 9 weeks. Domestically, it sits at $176.6 million and has grossed a worldwide total of $537 million off a production budget of $135 million. Go 3D animation! (drips with sarcasm).<\/p>\n<p>This Memorial Day weekend, we get the aforementioned <em>The Hangover Part III<\/em> (Thurs.), <em>Fast &#038; Furious 6<\/em>, and the 3D animated <em>Epic<\/em>.
