Hardcore #Trek fans will buy their ticket, but if you disappoint them: look out. They will very vocally let the world know thru social media

Joseph Dickerson

The more I think about it, the more I think that Paramount made a mistake in taking the #StarTrek fans for granted re: #STID

Joseph Dickerson

US-based #DoctorWho fans… I suggest you avoid Twitter until after the show airs tonight. #Spoilers are trending…

Joseph Dickerson

HOL-LE CRAP! A great season ender and great cliffhanger for the 50th Anniversary special Nov 23! #DoctorWho

Joseph Dickerson

“The Doctor… he will have many names before the end. The Storm. The Beast… the Valeyard.” YES. #DoctorWho

Joseph Dickerson

“Trensalore, is where I’m…” #spoilers #DoctorWho

Joseph Dickerson

“I’m Clara Oswald. The impossible girl. And I was born to save The Doctor.” YES. #DoctorWwo

Joseph Dickerson

Heh… just read a message board comment that called J.J. Abrams “the hipster version of Michael Bay.” #STID

Joseph Dickerson

I think what we may be seeing is that #StarTrek as a movie property is played out. They need to do a new TV series.

Joseph Dickerson

I (semi-confidently) predict #StarTrekIntoDarkness will make less than $250m TOTAL worldwide BO. It’s the last #Trek movie for a while.

Joseph Dickerson

The good news is #STID has only opened in 15 countries… lots more territories to open in.

Joseph Dickerson

This isn’t about the merits of #STID, just the numbers. With the movie cost ~$190m, w/(at least) $50m marketing… $75m opening is Not Good.

Joseph Dickerson

If #STID box-office drops 50% next weekend it may struggle to get to $200m domestic. That doesn’t bode well for future #StarTrek movies.

Joseph Dickerson

If #StarTrekIntoDarkness only hits $75m for first 4 1/2 days, that has to disappoint Paramount. Less than the 2009 film’s opening.
