Star Trek 2009 Worldwide box office gross: $385.6M http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=startrek11.htm
Star Trek Into Darkness (2013) Worldwide Box Office gross: $465.3M http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=startrek12.htm
So that represents a 21% increase in box office gross. I reckon that probably means even inflation adjusted star Trek 2013 made more. Yes the US gross went down (dumbasses) but the international box office essentially doubled (good taste).So the only possible place where a shit game tie in may have affected it's box ofice taking would be in the USA, which WOULD make the US audience dumbasses.
