Godzilla?

I don't know exactly how much all the Godzilla films have grossed, but surely, if you combine both Legendary's and Toho's films, they should have made stacks of money. I could be wrong though 2A02:C7C:A4B6:1A00:A7D4:A31A:B9AE:EBC6 (talk) 19:45, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Godzilla was in the list with almost $2.6 billion total, but now it is not enough to be in the top 20--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 19:54, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Depending on how well Godzilla Minus One and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire do, we may have to keep a look out for if it breaks into the top 20. 98.228.137.44 (talk) 22:16, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We already have all the data, if the two movies will made $700 million combined, the franchise will come back in the list--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 22:29, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

DC

With Aquaman 2 released the DCEU is ending and the new DCU will start are we counting this it’s own individual entrie or will we have both Fan Of Lion King 🦁 (talk) 20:14, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is a different/new franchise--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 22:15, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Transformers

Transformers is one series, albeit one with inconsistent continuity. It is strange that editors have broken it into subgroups. Can you please show your sources that prove these subgroups actually exist? (Reliable sources such as Deadline Hollywood call Rise of the Beasts Transformers 7. Producer Di Bonaventura declined to use the term "reboot" and Variety magazine noted the films"weren’t exactly sticklers for the laws of time and space, either".) Fans may argue about it and attempt to subgroup parts of the series but filmmakers have not done so, and reliable sources do not seem to support such subgrouping. I do not believe fancrufty subgroups are of any benefit and only add confusion to ordinary readers of this encyclopedia. Please present the Transformers series as one series, because that's what the facts actually support. -- 109.79.68.151 (talk) 19:08, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
