And Jerry Bruckheimer was a newbie with no record at all? An unknown producer, right?

 

And yet they fired him after one fail with The Lone Ranger. Oh, sorry, they "didn't renew their partnership but will keep working together, Lone Ranger is not to blame". How similar to the possible scenario I explained.

 

And stop overselling Kennedy for making billion dollars movies with Star Wars. Any monkey with Disney money, marketing and the Star Wars IP would have made The Force Awakens into a billion dollar movie, regardless of its quality. 

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%) 

X-Men + Deadpool is 0/7 (0%)

Fast & Furious Series is 2/8 (25%)

Harry Potter is 1/8 (12.5%)

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

Surprisingly ...

Pirates of the Caribbean is 2/5 ... so 40% ... so when people keep "why the fuck do they keep making these movies", there's your answer. 

Dude, most of those movies that you list aren't even comparable. For one, the market has completely changed in the past decade. Higher ticket prices, 3d,and bigger foreign markets.
