J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot beamed into its coffers $76.5 million in its opening weekend, well outpacing the $50 mil debut Paramount Pictures had (rather conservatively, one might say) predicted.
Star Trek took in $72.5 mil from Friday through Sunday, on top of $4 mil in midnight-Thursday receipts. Also included in its haul is $8.2 million in IMAX ticket sales, besting the super-big-screen record set last summer by The Dark Knight.
According to Exhibitor Relations, Star Trek made more on Friday alone — $26.8 million — than ...

J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot won't be seen until May 8, but Paramount is already rounding up Abrams' sci-fi friends for the sequel.
Abrams' Lost cocreator Damon Lindelof will join Fringe producers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman — who penned the upcoming release — to write the screenplay for the follow-up, according to Variety. Abrams will return to produce the next installment, but no decision has been made about whether he'll also direct.
Lindelof said he hopes fans don't think he and his colleagues are getting ahead of themselves. "There's obviously a lot of hubris involved in signing on to write a sequel of a movie that hasn't even come out yet," he said. "But we're so excited about the first one that we wanted to proceed."
Kurtzman is eager to get fan reaction before deciding which way to go, but the trio hopes to deliver a script by Christmas for what could be a summer 2011 release.

Out of the gate, Fringe built a sizeable following and garnered strong enough numbers to secure a quick back-nine pick-up. When the series returns this Tuesday, Abrams promises immense satisfaction for ...
