Is there a pattern to the top performing films in box office, what do they have in common that appeals to the masses.
The top ten most well-performing films in box office from 2018 are as followed: Avatar, Avengers: Endgame, Titanic, Star wars, Avengers…. As you can start to tell most of the top ten films are either a fantasy, Sci-fi, an adaptation or part of a franchise. These films appeal to the masses so well because the fantasy and sci-fi films are always interesting and have a great concept and the adaptations and franchises are lines of films that people come to trust and the target audience start to know what they’re going to get. Franchises also gather a fandom overtime, especially a franchise like Marvel since it has been going since 2008 it has had a long time to gather a fandom and since the target audience is so broad it turns out to be huge. some of the films have gained such a good box office because they’ve stood their test against time and still manage to gain a larger viewing years later so if its a franchise it will always grow each year.
