Sometimes the very first movie makes the biggest splash—think the original Transformers or The Force Awakens, which rode a huge wave of hype, curiosity, and nostalgia. Other times, the biggest hit comes a bit later, like Avengers: Endgame or Fast & Furious 7, which benefited from years of buildup and loyal fans. But usually, after a while, even the biggest franchises start to lose steam.
Sequels pull in huge profits early on because everything’s still fresh and exciting, but as more keep coming, people start to get tired. Unless a sequel really stands out, each new movie usually makes less money than the one before.
Take Jurassic World as a good example: the 2015 reboot smashed it with $1.67 billion worldwide, reigniting the franchise’s popularity. But its sequel, Fallen Kingdom, made less—about $1.3 billion—and by the time Dominion came out, the numbers kept dropping. It just goes to show—even huge franchises face diminishing returns over time.
I hope this movie will earn less than 7000 million and the franchise will just die
