Star Trek Into Darkness made $83.7 million over the four-day period (Thurs-Sun) but it is still unfortunately considered a disappointment. Apparently, four years is too long to wait to make a sequel. I liked the movie a lot, and I’m really excited for what Memorial weekend has to offer, because I’m anticipating each release (call me crazy for hoping The Hangover Part III will be good).
