Apparently it isn't that easy to make a billion+ picture.

Marvel is 5/19 (25%)

Pixar is 2/19 (10.5%)

Lucas went 1/3 on the prequels (33%) 

Disney Star Wars is 3/4 (75%) soon to be 80%. 


Are you really trying to compare Ant-Man, Doctor Strange or The good dinosaur to Star Wars? Really? How can you even think like that? Star Wars is one of the biggest franchise ever, the only thing remotely comparable is the full Avengers, not individual superheroes 90% of the audience never heard about before. And Pixar movies have never been billion dollars franchises, they're kids movies before anything else.

 

On the prequels, you forget to take inflation in consideration, 850 millions 15 years ago is no different than 1 billion today. And again, it was without the power of Disney and the "What will Disney do with SW?" expectations.

 

Any fan made story would have been a billion dollars hit for the Disney Star Wars rebirth, you won't be able to change my mind on that. 

Yet the prequels struggled to hit $1 billion consistently and got overshadowed by the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Funny that.
