The title is quite confusing. It sounds like the last time all top 10 spots were occupied by sequels was 50 years ago. What they actually meant is that over the last 50 years numbers of sequels in top 10 was gradually increasing (starting from 0 in 1973/1974).
Wizard of Oz prequel Wicked could threaten the ranking, though
How, though? While technically not the same as a sequel, it’s still expanding on an established property, which seems to be what’s popular. It’s still not something wholly original.
There are almost no big original movies being made, that goes much further than just sequels. It’s all adaptations of books and plays, reboots, remakes.
Deadpool and Wolverine serves as a sequel to the Deadpool movies, the X-Men movies AND the Loki TV show.
and the Blade movies, which I personally wouldn’t classify under X-Men.
+Daredevil and Elektra, +FF. Really the only thing they didn’t touch was Ghost Rider.
Never saw Ghost Rider. I popped up on my radar the other day. Is it worth it, even at a campy level?
I tried to give it a shot and couldn’t finish it. his lines are lame.
I’ll say it. the film is just lame.
first one is ok for a rainy sunday, i know nothing about the second other than that it exists.
Ghost rider got a mention, one of the weapons blade used was his
And it was 💩
Just a bunch of jokes and fanservice strung together without any story.
It was awful. My wife bowed out after 10 minutes. I made it about half way through before I yielded and admitted it was a terrible movie, and shut it off. I do not understand its success and popularity.
Which is exactly why it was so awesome!
