      • Jurassic Park (or World). Man, Dominion was a turd. The opening scene was a cringe and the whole felt like I was watching four movies in one.
      • Terminator. It’s pretty much dead after Salvation. T3 was fine, ironically this was my first Terminator film I watched.
      • MCU
      • Star Wars

      In Hollywood? Everything and anything will be remade and continued. Even a flop will eventually return. I don’t doubt the dark universe (with Tom cruise and Russell Crowe) will be revisited after a few years.
