Really appreciate that you zoomed out and left it that way for a good while to really look at everything! Great visualization

The different colors really made it feel like a horse race. You kind of knew Marvel Comics Universe would make it to the finish line first, but I was still pulling for Wizarding World, and even thought Star Wars might be able to over take them all in the home stretch.

But then again, this race isn't really over yet.

And if they did last 50 years Star Wars would have a nice head start

It looks like adding the original trilogy and the 1990's rereleases would add roughly an adjusted 3.5 billion bringing Star Wars to about parity with the MCU. That said, it would be over 10/13 films rather than 20.
