Film franchises in Hollywood are important for audiences and
produces as most of the efficiently thriving films including DC and Harry
Potter; I will be using these two films as my examples. In my opinion I think
these two films are two of the most successful franchises within the film
studios along with many other films. Film franchises are successful for many
reasons, such as the people are familiar with the film, and the comics, but the
main one is Horizontal Integration which is where large company's merge into
one large one to create a franchise.
Warner Bros is a good example of a Horizontally Integrated company as it is one of the biggest companies in the world. Warner Bros make about $35.000,000 a year on films and such alike. All the Harry Potter series made $2,390,073,877 in the Domestic Box Office which shows that it is quite a popular film series.
The most popular film Warner Bros has made is probably The Dark Knight – a DC Superhero film, it is still top of the charts even though it came out in 2008. The Dark Knight is the first film of the Batman trilogy; the total gross of the Dark Knight was $533,345,358 all together in the domestic box office sales. Warner Bros is owned by Time Warner which bought DC comics in March 1989, where the two companies merged together. In June of that year, the first Batman film was released.
