I may add that during the previous 15 years we’ve got new possibilities: Avatar, which was successful enough to get (I hope) worthy sequels; John Carter, a missed opportunity (movie is mediocre but a sequel could have been awesome); Jupiter Ascending, a failure but a new concept (like a feminist-oriented Matrix); Tomorrowland, great but didn’t make any money; Speed Racer, which is basically one of the best movies of the past decade and an invitation to a new kind of cinema (sadly we’ll never get to see the sequels); etc.
