That's a weird way to look at it. Sure they made less with each movie sort of, but the numbers are staggering.
- 2015 The Force Awakens: 2.066 Billion (Budget 306m)
- 2016 Rogue One: 1.058 Billion (Budget 200m)
- 2017 The Last Jedi: 1.333 Billion (Budget 200m)
- 2018 Solo: 392.2 Million (Budget 275m)
- 2019 Rise of Skywalker: 1.074 Billion (Budget 275m)
Almost 6 Billion in Box Office sales. They made all their money back since they bought it.
​
Then there's the merch, oh that sweet merch: 2-3 Billion per year, PER YEAR
They can afford to flop and I'm sure they aren't too worried about cancelling several projects.
​
If that's not a money-making machine, I don't know what is.
