      I wonder if there is actually any evidence that it’s more profitable to make only “safe” movies over taking some risks. My guess would be that some of the most wildly popular movies of all time were considered a risk up front.

        Every movie is a risk, it’s about how much risk. When you have a built in audience the risk is significantly lower. As evidenced by people continuing to go see the Jurassic Park sequels.
