BILLY BUTCHER presents the Post-Punk and New Wave Super-Friends.

WEEKEND BOX OFFICE:Star Trek Into Darkness tops the chart with 70.6 million over the weekend and 84 million since Wednesday. This is actually at the low end of projections, which may reflect the continued strength of the competition (particularly Iron Man 3) and the tendency of the pre-Memorial Day weekend to be relatively weak (making one second-guess Paramount's choice of release date).  STID may yet have the legs of its predecessor, but one would typically expect a sequel to a successful franchise reboot to open bigger and this one didn't, especially accounting for Wednesday opening and the 3-D and IMAX ticket premium. STID also took in 31.7 overseas and those numbers may end up more important this time (the 2009 reboot was not proportionately big overseas).  Iron Man 3 places with 35.2 million and becomes te fourth fastest film to break the 300 million mark domestically.  The Great Gatsby shows with 23.4 million on a 53 percent drop that likely causes sighs of relief at the WB.  Gatsby now has 90.2 million domestic against a 105 million budget (after Aussie subsidies).Pain And Gain hangs in at No.4 with 3.1 million.  The Croods again rounds out the Top 5 with 2.8 million.
