Star Trek Into Darkness may have tried to boldly go where no blockbuster had gone before, but unfortunately, it appears to have fallen a few million dollars short of that!
Although the J.J. Abrams-directed sequel was expected to rack in between $90-$100 million during its opening box office weekend, the numbers are now in….and apparently, audiences were not as thrilled to see Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto battle it out with Benedict Cumberbatch, as it only secured about $70.6 million!
But don't fret, Trekkies!
The flick STILL beat out all of the competition for the weekend's number one spot domestically, and in the process crushed both Iron Man 3, which came in second with $35.2 million, and The Great Gatsby, which made a cool $23.4 and rounded out the top three!
Ch-ch-check out the rest of the weekend's box office top ten…AFTER THE JUMP!!!
We are SO pumped for Star Trek Into Darkness!
But, we're even MORE "phased" about the sexy studs that star in the sci-fi sequel!
Just look at those blue eyes on Chris Pine! SoooooOOOOoooooo dreamy!
What about the other Star Trek hotties?? Beam us up, Scotty and…

Set your phasers to BANK!
Star Trek Into Darkness is set to knock Robert Downey Jr.'s iron butt out of the top spot in the box office this weekend!
Judging by pre-sales & a super-strong Wednesday and Thursday opening, studio shaman's expect the sci-fi sequel to break $100 mil in its opening weekend!!!
$100,000,000!?!?
Whoa! Somebody needs to beam J.J. Abrams up a congratulatory bottle of champagne!!
Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, and Benedict Cumberbatch all look super fine in their totally tight & extra fabulous
LOLz you're not alone in your love for this diva, Zach!!
Zachary Quinto, the Star Treck: Into Darkness star, was a guest on Chelsea Lately last night with Chelsea Handler.
While there, he totes went off on a tangent about how much he ADORES Beyonce!!
He hit up her Mrs. Carter World Tour while promoting Star Trek in London, and he thought that Queen Bey was so AH-mazing that he just couldn’t get over how awesome she was!!
He told Chelsea the following:
OMG, can Benedict Cumberbatch act!
The Brit with the beautiful baritone voice gives it everything he's got in this amazing leaked footage from Star Trek: Into Darkness!
Ch-ch-check out the video (above) to see if the secretive villain is going to pull on Chris Pine's heartstrings the way he tugs on ours!
We'd wonder about Zachary Quinto, but let's face it- Vulcans ain't got time for that!
We knew Spock was a smarty pants…
But we didn't know Zachary Quinto was such a wordsmith!
The so-sexy-it-hurts actor recently sat down with Jimmy Fallon to chat about all things Star Trek, and during the chinwag Zach explained how he and costar Chris Pine would play word games during their international press interviews…
Ch-ch-check out the HIGHlarious action (above)!
Ooooo we could listen to Zach spit SAT words alllllll night long, LOLz!
Are you trekkies ready for some HIGHlarious Vulcan-on-Vulcan action??
In a genius new promo by Audi, Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy are enjoying a friendly competitive game of chess when they decide to up the ante with a good old fashioned Spock-off!
Ok, so they actually decide to race to the golf course to decide who buys lunch, but the results are still pretty awesome!
Ch-ch-check out the amazing video (above)!
Star Trek Into Darkness comes out on top in the end in his brand new Audi (it IS an Audi commercial, after all), but Leonard gets the last laugh after giving Zach his patented Vulcan nerve pinch and leaving him face-down in the parking lot! LOLz!!!
We're not sure who the better Spock is, but we DO know that these two need to do more commercials together IMMEDIATELY!
What about U? Who do U think is the better Spock??
