It’s a matter of expectation. Iron Man was a surprise hit. The other films, like Captain America, did about as well as everyone had expected, and were successes because they were budgeted with that sort of return in mind. Solo was a failure because after TFA (and the residual ‘Star Wars is back’ novelty that boosted RO), Disney came to expect that every Star Wars film would top a billion.
