These stats are a bit misleading. Overall sales are up, but only because of a historic year for superhero movies this year. Black Panther, Infinity War and The Incredibles each grossed over $600 million domestic. It's not exactly healthy for filmmaking when all other movies are down.

Original movies are performing at a historically low rate. The only movies based on an original screenplay to make the top 20 so far are A Quiet Place and The Meg. Everything else is sequel, franchise movie, or based on a best selling book.

Superhero Movies YTD: 2018: 2,670.7 2017: 1,537.9

Non Superhero Movies YTD: 2018: 6,648.8 2017: 6,921.6

I had no idea that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization rated movies.

What an alliance!
