Suddenly, Vulcan Zombies!
I calculated the ROI of Star Trek movies. I took budget and box office (USD) figures from Wikipedia and used this formula:ROI = (Box Office − Budget) / BudgetGrouped by era.TOS (Original Series films)Star Trek: The Motion PictureBudget: $44MBox office: $139MROI: ~216% Profitable, but expensive for its time.Star Trek II: The Wrath of KhanBudget: $12MBox office: $97MROI: ~708% Massive hit; best ROI in the franchise.Star Trek III: The Search for SpockBudget: $16MBox office: $87MROI: ~444% Very strong return.Star Trek IV: The Voyage HomeBudget: ~$23M (midpoint of $21–25M)Box office: $133MROI: ~478% One of the most profitable Trek films.Star Trek V: The Final FrontierBudget: $33MBox office: $63MROI: ~91% Underperformed; borderline failure.Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered CountryBudget: $30MBox office: $96.8MROI: ~223% Solid comeback.TOS summary:Low budgets and huge ROI. Only Star Trek V seriously underperformed.TNG (Next Generation films)Star Trek: GenerationsBudget: $35MBox office: $118MROI: ~237% Strong financial start.Star Trek: First ContactBudget: $45MBox office: $146MROI: ~224% Financially successful and well received.Star Trek: InsurrectionBudget: $70MBox office: $118MROI: ~69% Disappointing return.Star Trek: NemesisBudget: $60MBox office: $67.3MROI: ~12% Clear flop; did not break even.TNG summary:Early success followed by sharp decline. Nemesis effectively ended the TNG movie era.
Kelvin TimelineStar Trek (2009)Budget: $150MBox office: $385.7MROI: ~157% Modest success; barely profitable by blockbuster standards.Star Trek Into DarknessBudget: ~$187.5M (midpoint of $185–190M)Box office: $467.4MROI: ~149% Essentially break-even after marketing.Star Trek BeyondBudget: $185MBox office: $343.5MROI: ~86% Financial flop.Kelvin summary:Despite high box office totals, massive budgets and marketing costs killed profitability. One modest success, one break-even film, and one flop - not sustainable as theatrical blockbusters.Overall conclusionMost profitable era: TOS films (especially Wrath of Khan and Voyage Home)Most consistent success: Early TNGBiggest failure: NemesisModern problem: Star Trek does not scale well to $180M+ budgetsThis is why the franchise ultimately shifted away from theaters toward streaming and TV.

>>217404455ENT was truly a return to form
>>217404586My favorite Transformers movie is the one with Orson Welles.
>>217404353Star was just as bad as Insaneway for genociding all magical beings
>>217404315>be a hologram>able to look exactly however you want>choose thisnigga i would be a fucking T-rex, or at least a fucking raptor, or like a giant spider just to fuck with people, what the hell lame ass bullshit man, at least the doctor has the excuse of being built by a narcissist, what person could pick peak any creature and choose to be an ugly fat retard looking thing
>>217404609ENTchad detected
>>217404663ugly fat girl is what looks cool to aliens
>>217404678ENT is a blast, my only gripe is how deliberately retarded they make Archer so he can fumble and bumble into their story of the weekits great when he's actually being a competent captainbut its frustrating when he's doing something blatantly unsafe for the sake of "curiosity and exploration!"
>>217404736>its great when he's actually being a competent captainwhen was that?
>>217404757every time he told the vulcan high command to fuck themselves god its nice to see vulcans be insulted to their faces
>>217404757When he raided a civilian science vessel and stole vital supplies leaving them helpless. Even Sisko never made such a ballsy move
>>217404506If you're not including the cost of advertising those movies, your figures are meaningless.
>>217404640The soundtrack for that movie punched above its weight class.
Fuck ACKFuck STDFuck SJWFuck Trek & MortyFuck SPIC
>>217404866dangerously based
>>217404866Kira as a Cardassian was hot as fuck for some reason.
>>217404448it's linked from the previous threadsorry your automated spambots couldn't find the thread from the catalog
I love SA!
>>217404917i'm not a spambot I just like using the catalog
>>217405033is what a spambot would sayyour new excomp name is CASHEW TOTE
wouldn't it be fucking funny if they never bothered to retcon Local Area Network from the minds of the enterprise crew and spock just decided not to tell kirk about her?
>>217404757God the NX class is obviously supposed to be utilitarian and "submarine"-like but it really is so cool
>>217405117She's going to go out in a blaze of glory and sacrifice herself for the timeline or something.
>>217404857idiotic take
>>217404586I hate Krutzman so much it's almost unbelievable.
>>217405055exocomps are not bots they are REAL PEOPLE
>>217404586I liked the Mummy. Cruise rarely makes a bad film.
>>217405137nah she has to become a temporal agent, it's the only way they can justify her having existed at allplus they wouldn't have had her bit with kirk in s2
Voyager bros....we won.
>>217405236That was a decent 'sode in season 2.
>>217405244*except kes
>>217405250i agree, s2 overall was fairly kinomusical haters be damned
>>217405244>sci fi series>only one alien on crew
i remember the episode where it really felt like Archer was acting like how you would expect a true Starfleet captain to act for once: defending the defenseless on principle even when it technically helps the enemy.but it turns out he was actually just being mind controlled to do the right thing and the entire crew was about to mutiny over it. out of all the actual blatantly retarded shit Archer had done that put lives at risk. that was the thing they all wanted to draw the line on. saving babies. Enteprise is something else.
