TREK 10 Falls in Week Two DVD Sales, Rentals Reach Two-Thirds Box Office Take

PROMENADE

Typhon Station is a very fastpaced PBeM RPG with skilled, experienced players and a warm sense of bonding and community. We play at the turn-of-the-century, 2400, and are located in the Typhon Expanses, bordering the Neutral Zone, proximate to the Romulan Empire, and near the Iconian Digs, and are on the first warning route of the original Borg Incursion.
We have three stations to post from, SB 185, USS Odyssey, and USS Wraith. They all have general and particular storylines and all interact. This game is not for the faint of heart! The writing is superb and comes hot and heavy. We have some open spots and also we will consider character suggestions. So, longtime RPGers and novices, check us out. See if you want to make Typhon Station your home away from home.

Dept: Star Trek: Nemesis

STAR TREK NEMESIS hit U.S. shelves last month, opening its first five days as the #1 purchased DVD, edging out ANTWONE FISHER with 1.3 million copies sold (story). Although DVD sales numbers are not available from Video Scan's First Alert chart, the Hollywood Reporter has published ranking data through the week ending May 31st.

The tenth TREK pic fell to the #4 spot behind three new releases: THE RECRUIT (#1), NATIONAL SECURITY (#2), and THE PIANST (#3). The second week data also shows that NEMESIS sold only a quarter of the amount of copies moved by THE RECRUIT, indicated by a relative volume index that lists products in relation to percentage of the top-selling DVD's sales figures.

Rental data accounts for the film's first 19 days of availability, reporting that NEMESIS has raked in $27 million dollars in rental sales, nearly 63% of its total domestic box office ($43m). NEMESIS took the sixth spot in Video Store Magazine's chart of rentals for the week ending June 8th. This is 19% less than the previous week's #5 finish, pulling in roughly $7.35 million for the most recent week. NEMESIS made $10.6 million dollars in rental revenue in its first five days.

Probably a good sign

Keep in mind that a lot of people on this board (and probably a lot of people who are not on the board) are postponing purchase of Nemesis for the 2 disc edition.
Regardless of what Baird/Berman have said, Paramount will be pressuring for that to be a decent seller as well, so we may all get that 2:45 - 3hour version yet on that disc, 2 years down the road.

I purchased this version, and do not have plans for the 2-disc, but if it gets the extended treatment, and Logan, Stewart and/or Spiner get in on the voice-over-- a couple years from now, I might be willing to shell out another $25. Heck, I am buying the Trek 5 special edition, just to get Shatner's new material. I probably will never even watch the normal soundtrack version of that movie.

Studios don't get rental revenue

I may be mistaken on this, but I don't think the studios make money off the rental take (unless of course they own the store). They may only get the $amount of disc sold to the rental store.
