Four out of the top five film the most ticket sales in 2017 in North America belonged to Disney.
After acquiring 20th Century Fox for $ 52.4 billion, Disney's dominance in Hollywood will become more stable. As such, Disney will own a number of movie brands such as X-Men, Avatar, Fantastic Four, Planet of the Apes, Alien, Predator, Kingsman, Ice Age ....
Disney's Marvel (MCU) - which has become a model of envious success in Hollywood - will be expanded with new superheroes.

Overall, the Hollywood movie market is still growing well in 2017 although North American gross revenue is down about 2% over the same period last year.
The reason is because some of the blockbuster is expected as Transformers: The Last Knight, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales and The Mummy is disappointing because of the boring content.
