I feel like you have to make an effort to avoid the fact that Despicable Me 2 exists.
Like Academy Award voters, animated movies are in my blind spot.

The DM3 acronym always trips me up in these threads.
I didn't know they made two of those movies, let alone three. Next someone will say Megamind 4 is coming out in August.
Yeah I always forget how big those piece of crap movies are.
The Minions really propelled them into a big franchise

Piece of crap movies? They're fun.
The anti-non-Disney animated movies bias is incredible to see
Do teenagers think they're too cool for Guardians? What's the story there? I would have thought it'd play well to teens

Was about to sayWhen did that happen?
It's really just Discotheque, who has unique tastes.
The Fast and Furious series also passed the $5B mark a few days back. They are now higher than the Batman franchise (including LEGO Batman and BvS).

What the fuck
The old films are old. Batman 1989 through Batman and Robin combined worldwide made about what Fate of the Furious is heading towards.
F6 and F7 combined made about $2.3B, vs a little under $2.1B for TDK and TDKR combined.
When did that happen?

Fantastic.I don't know if it was already mentioned, but the cumulative worldwide total for the MCU series is now over $11B.

Holy shit, what?

Other interesting things are that Rowling's Wizardry World has the highest average of any franchise. Star Wars would have had it, but they count the 2008 clone wars movie, which only made 68MM. Even without adjust for inflation, SW still averages 835MM. DCU also averages a bit higher than MCU, but they have the benefit of every single one of their movies coming post Avengers whereas MCU has Thor1, Cap1, and TIH bringing the average way down. X-Men should average way higher than it does and Spiderman average is close to 800MM, so I would think anything less than that for Homecoming will be seen as a failure. Avatar 2 will get on this list and have the highest average as soon as Avatar 2 releases.
It's unlikely any series will ever catch up to them, unless we start getting two Star Wars film a year pretty soon.I don't know if it was already mentioned, but the cumulative worldwide total for the MCU series is now over $11B.

I think MCU ends the year over 13B. Assuming another 400MM or so for GOTG2, that leaves ~650MM average for Homecoming and Ragnarok.
I don't think Spider-Man technically counts since it is Sony.

I was actually going to make a somewhat tongue-in-cheek comment that the Avatar franchise will get, but by 2025, the MCU films will probably over $20B. Each Avatar film could grow by 15% and still their total gross would be well below that mark.Even if Disney decides to accelerate Star Wars (and the films don't start to see diminishing returns), it will take some time to catch up.
MCU has a pretty good shot at topping $13B by the time the Last Jedi comes out. I'd guess that the Last Jedi brings the Star Wars total to a bit more than $9B.
Unless the MCU completely falls apart post-Avengers 4 nothing is really in a position to overtake it in the next 10 years.
Now hating on despicable me series is a controversial opinion too. God damn this place has lost the plot.

If any Avatar sequels ever come out. xDThe $20B mark will happen by 2021. 2022 at the latest. How many Avatar sequels are out by then? Maybe 2? All 4 Avatar sequels could probably make $5B each and it wouldn't end up mattering.
If things go according to plan, a whopping TWO Avatar sequels will be out by the end of 2021. And then we will have 3 years worth of threads to talk about them before the next one.
But Spider-Man Homecoming 2 will be completely divorced from the MCU if Rothman has his way, right?

Yep, you're right. This is all getting to be too much for me to keep track of.I thought that happened after 2. Which is why there isn't a third Marvel film in 2019, even though they are sort of pushing it with Doctor Strange 2 if they wait until 2020.
lol, damn, it would take two sub-$30 million films back to back for Avatar to average below Harry Potter.
Edit: Huh, if my math is right, Jurassic World 2 would only need to pass $1,054,956,916 for the Jurassic Park series to take that throne from Potter next year. Seems pretty likely, no?
Edit 2: lol, Lord of the Rings got fucked hard on that list by that 1978 animated film.
