Of the top 20, only 4 were non-series films - Frozen, Titanic, Jurassic Park 
and Avatar. Jurassic Park did become a series, but that wasn't known at the 
time of release. Similarly there will be more Avatar films, but that didn't 
matter at release.

Just 4 out of the top 20... no wonder Hollywood just wants to stick to the 
tried and tested formula. It's what the public wants.

I blame Michael Bay.



Everyone is too scared to take a leap of faith, coz if you follow Michael Bay's 
formula, win or lose, you always win.

Worked for Hollywood. Too many damned sequels and extended universes.
