Media star wars
In a galaxy far, far away, a civil war is raging between the evil Galactic Empire and rebel forces. The Empire is building a powerful new weapon called the Death Star. During a battle, rebel spies steal the plans for the Death Star and secret them away in a droid named R2-D2.

Star wars
The document discusses the Star Wars film saga, including that it was created by George Lucas and consists of 6 episodes released between 1977-2005. It notes the films were hugely popular and successful, grossing over $4 billion total. The document also mentions some of the actors who played main characters, and that it will focus on Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen who portrayed two of the main characters.
Star Wars The Phenomenon
George Lucas created the Star Wars franchise after being inspired by classic films, comic books, and mythology. He wrote and directed the first Star Wars film in 1977, which became a massive success and launched a series of films, TV shows, books, and other media. Disney acquired Lucasfilm in 2012 and has continued expanding the Star Wars universe with a new trilogy of films. The document provides a detailed history of the Star Wars franchise from its origins to the modern era under Disney's ownership.
Greatest movie franchises of all time
Movie franchises that have stood the test of time and earned billions at the box office include Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Toy Story. Star Wars revolutionized the film industry and paved the way for modern blockbusters with an average gross higher than any other franchise when adjusted for inflation. Indiana Jones and Toy Story have both continued to release successful sequels decades after their initial installments, with Toy Story 3 being a serious contender for Best Picture at the 2011 Academy Awards. Other hugely popular and lucrative franchises include Spider-Man, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Shrek, Jurassic Park, Batman, The Matrix, and Pirates of the Caribbean.
Sony godzilla
Sony spent $60 million on marketing for the 1998 Godzilla movie, believing it would be a blockbuster hit. However, the movie received poor reviews and became a box office flop. Sony had overhyped the film through an expensive marketing campaign and numerous brand tie-ins, but the final product was panned for its weak script and lack of suspense. The excessive hype and promotions backfired by raising expectations that the movie failed to meet. This taught Sony that strong branding is not enough to guarantee success if the core product is of poor quality.

1) The top 10 highest grossing films of all time at the domestic box office are led by Avatar at $760.5 million. Most are big budget blockbusters in genres like sci-fi, superhero, and animated films.
2) Titanic stands out as the sole romance/disaster film in the top 10 and has the most unique genre compared to the others.
3) Horror films are less successful than other genres, with Jaws ranked at #54, but remakes of classic horror films have proven lucrative despite mixed reviews. Franchises like Saw and remakes are a safer bet than original horror.

20th Century Fox is a major film studio known for producing successful films across many genres, including action/adventure films.

Genre theory: Maltby
This document discusses genre theory and how successful films and franchises within a particular genre get replicated by other films, TV shows, and media looking to achieve similar financial success.

The theory suggests characteristics of commercially viable genres get repackaged repeatedly to tap into proven popular appeal.

The Motion Picture Patents Company (MPPC), also known as "The Trust", was formed in 1908 as a peace treaty between Thomas Edison and other major film companies to control the production, distribution and exhibition of films. The MPPC involved major studios like Edison, Biograph, Kodak and others. However, it failed in the 1910s due to antitrust regulations and the rise of independent distributors and producers during World War 1 when European demand declined. This led to the end of the studio system monopoly and greater technological changes in the film industry.

However, it failed in the 1910s due to antitrust regulations and the rise of independent distributors and producers during World War 1 when European demand declined. This led to the end of the studio system and the emergence of new stars and production companies in the 1920s like Warner Bros. and RKO, who benefited from the introduction of sound films.
