Sequel trilogy is wrecking the prequels
The Force Awakens > Phantom Menace
The Last Jedi > Attack of the Clones
Even with inflation adjusted.
Episode IX will demolish Revenge of the Sith too, Last Jedi already beat it.
OT is the king of kings, but that's to be expected, nothing's topping the OT. Those are the best Star Wars movies and you're never topping that.
You will never have a twist as good as Darth Vader being Luke's father, you will never have a soundtrack/score that good, the OT's "B-characters" like Yoda, the Emperor, Boba Fett, Chewie, Lando, are better than most movies' "A-team", you will never have a villain like Darth Vader, you'll never have a character as good as Han Solo.
Disney is just going to have to be content with the most popular trilogy in Hollywood even if it doesn't match the originals.
2.9 billion for the 2 Avengers films is pretty much the highest non-Star Wars comparable, TFA + TLJ are at 3.3 billion.
