The current top 10 shows a lot for a formula of success for a film. The main thing shown from all these movies is the market for action films is very popular with all films in the top 10 having some type of action included into the film. With this part incorporated  into the film, its guarantee for a success as the film doesn’t even need to have good review scores or audience scores to gain profit such as Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom what has both an average critic review and audience score around 50% on rotten tomatoes. However it helps this film and any other film on the list what comes from an existing film franchise like Marvel or Jurassic park. A major example of this is Tang Ren Jie Tan An 2 (Detective Chinatown 2) what gained a $400 million more than the original film at the box office.

Another formula for success what is shown from the top 10 is the studios attached to the films with 4 films distributed by Disney what also shows that they use a good part of the film budget on marketing. A key for a successful movie is to put a good amount towards marketing as it cost an estimated $140 million for both the marketing of Avengers:Infinity War and Black Panther as examples. While also the the fact Disney is involved with these films is enough to sell to different market audiences such as families as there image alone is enough to promote their movies. So a good studio backing a movie is a very helpful to make a profitable movie.

Licensing helps movies as 4 movies have the use of marvel comics characters what further proves that source material helps a movie. The reason for this is it brings an existing fanbase with the material used for the film what will give the film an audience before the films release. With 4 films based on comic books while Ready Player One is based on a book what was a bestseller in 20 different languages, what helps internationally at the box office with using an original source.
