Has any cinematic endeavor accomplished more than that?
Harry Potter had a good run. Consistently good movies, a couple of them great. Call it 3rd.
Star Wars is a phenomenon with a cultural impact that even the MCU can’t match. The problem is those god-awful prequels ... and the cringe-worthy Ewoks. Just too much really bad to go with the good.
Peter Jackson’s series of Middle Earth films must be considered. LOTR is outstanding, but he really screwed the pooch with the Hobbit movies.
Trilogies and individual films, regardless of how great they might be, simply don’t have enough entries to compare to these other endeavors that managed to sustain themselves over a long period of time with a high level of success. The don’t make the cut.
Pixar has really changed the animation game, you make a great point.
Harry Potter was a good run for sure, and comparable in box office and overall quality I suppose. The MCU has gone further I would say and has unlimited potential. I mean we might actually be looking at 40 films. I mean just think about that, it's insane.
