American blockbuster 2

Star Trek into darkness
This film is a sequel, and is successful because it is from a successful TV franchise. It is about the enterprise crew saving the universe from an evil force.

It was released May 2nd 2013 in the cinemas and then released on DVD September 10th 2013. This is good because when it was released in cinemas it is near half term so more people will be able to watch the film. Then the film being released on DVD in september is also good because then it is really close to christmas and the sales will rise. This films rating is 12A meaning there will be a wide audience of teenagers and adluts but the audience is limited because children cannot see this film meaning there will not be as big of an audience.

The production budget for this film is $190 million and it made $228,778,661 in America and $ 467, 365, 246 worldwide. This means that the film as done really well.

The stars:
This film is good because there is a lot of actors in this film that have a big fan base and the fact that there is someone with a big fanbase from England helps the film grow popular.

Chris Pine (Pine nuts):
Zachary Quinto:
Simon Pegg:
Benedict Cumberbatch (Cumberbitches):

The poster:
The poster is good because there is a lot of action going on and it is eye catching. The main audience is male so covering the poster is effective. The fact that the picture invovles a picture of Earth makes it relateable and then the ship that is fallen and is smoking creates questions in the audience.
There is also a lot of different posters which is effective because then there is a lot of advertisement around and it appeals to a wider audience.


The trailer:

I didn't watch this film because I don't like the star trek franchise to begin with but if I was to watch it, it would be mainly because of the actors, I have seen them all in other things and liked their acting.
