Crunching The Numbers As Star Trek Ends Theatrical Run

Fall has started and most people have moved on from the summer blockbusters, but the dedicated Trek fans at Trek Movie are taking one last look at the box office receipts from this summer's Star Trek, and have found that it finally surpassed Star Trek: The Motion Picture as the highest-grossing Trek film of all time.

They've got all the data in some handy bar graphs, which even adjust for inflation and examine the film's international performance, where it netted $127.2 million overseas-- not bad by any means, but also not an unqualified success. The best news about all of this, though, is that Star Trek has handily beaten Wolverine, meaning that despite how things looked at first, quality has beaten out loud explosions once again. Now if only we could do something about Transformers 3.
