    Hollywood greenlights some original stuff but, judging by box office returns, the audiences don’t go to see them.

    I think Zootopia 2 will have beaten all the films he listed, plus Sinners and maybe One Battle After Another combined in it’s first week or so.

    So, assuming you’re a producer, would you put your money into a safe bet like Jurrassic Park 12 or some indie project that hopefully makes its money back and maybe goes on a bit of a run?

      I just checked, and you only need to combine Sinners and Weapons to beat Zootopia 2’s first week ($620M), for a lower combined budget.
