Tarantino? Sukiyaki Star Trek Django? :D
'...another certain franchise which could use a little help.'
You mean the Star Wars Saga?
Star Wars 7 is terrible. And now we have Star Wars 8 and it seems to be the combination of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi with a white pokemon fox and a baby groot bird.
Look at the scenes in the SW 8 trailer and you'll find that all of them are copied from SW 5 and 6:
Jedi training with a master and an apprentice, key spaceship under the water, cave scene with a vision, escape from a cave with a spaceship, walkers attack on a white planet, the two types of walkers from SW 5 and 6 reappear, the gate closes on this white planet - of course the scene shows Leia, space war with two fleets - the new version of the EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate can be seen as well, the young Jedi meets the Emperor/Supreme Leader, and he tortures her like Palpatine did with Luke, and so on...
Box Office number does not mean quality...
