I think that was a function of schlocky action sequels making less and less and stars making more and more.

Posted by: notfabio on Apr 24, 16:47 in response to raccacoonie's post the wild thing about big dumb 80s action stars is that...

It was rarer in the 70's, 80's for sequels to make more than the original films. They were more likely to follow the JJ Abrams Star Trek pattern, big first film, then diminishing returns.
