Wolverine Versus Star Trek

wolverine,spock

I kind of avoided all the opening weekend Wolverine buzz (maybe not to jinx it like I seem to have Watchmen) but going into the second week I think it's okay to talk now.
I saw Star Trek this weekend and loved it.
(before you start, I watched Star Trek back in it's first run on TV, watched Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, couldn't handle Enterprise, watched all the movies and no I do not know Klingon, I just like Star Trek)
Anyway, despite the fact that I loved the Star Trek movie and its getting mostly favorable reviews, Wolverine still out grossed it in it's first week.

Star Trek pulled in $76.5 million this weekend, and Wolverine pulled in $85 last weekend.
Wolverine dropped to $27 million in it’s second weekend and I dont see that big of a drop for Star Trek coming up.
So Star Trek may out perform Wolvie in the long run.

Just in case you want a little Star Trek/X-Men goodness mixed together, head over to Sir Jorge's blog and take a look at Spock versus Wolverine where the above picture came from.
Appropriate no?

Gotta admit though, Wolverine versus Sylar..now there's a fight I'd like to see.
