There is a long list of films which become blockbuster and then the movie studios, which make that film decided to make a franchise out of that film. Movie studios are becoming more global by taking care of the interest of the worldwide audience and so making the films in such a way that it resonates with the people coming to the theatres. When the movie studios franchise a franchise, it is intended to generate more and more revenue and to cover the losses which occurred due to the flop films. However, sometimes the plan failed to franchise out a movie because sequels crashed at the box office and were unable to get the appreciation of people. Here, is the list of those films which supposed to start a franchise but failed to get the appreciation of audience:-
Fant4stic
The film came in the year 2015 was made with a large budget, but it lacked in star power. There was a shortage of any recognized name in the movie, which could add to its value. This was an adventurous science fiction film that lacked strong content, which appeals to a family. Moreover, the poor marketing strategy to promote the movie also had an adverse impact on the film. The marketing strategy was so weak that it could not assure the people to come to theatres and watch the movie. In the end, the movie makers sold the rights of this movie to Marvel.
Ender’s Game
Ender’s Game was based on the science fiction novel written by Orson Scott Card with the identical name but failed to allure the audience and proved to be a flop film. The makers of this movie were willing to make the sequels based by adapting the rest story of Card’s novel, but disappointing box office collection poured cold water on their ideas. The plot of this movie was similar to that of Harry Potter, in which a talented boy sent to a military academy. The boy has to take training so he could fight the aliens and beat them. The film even failed to capture the teenagers and young boys around whom the content of this film was revolving.
The A-Team
The makers of this movie dropped the plant to make the sequels of this film, and hence the idea of franchising out this movie came to an end. The storyline of The A-Team could not appeal to moviegoers, and only a few turned up to the cinema halls impacting its earning, which was very low. The weak story, coupled with dull dialogue and some other stupid scenes of this film, made it finally flop.

Green Lantern
Green Lantern proved to be a great box office disaster and failed to turn up the audience to the movie theaters even though a massive budget was invested in the marketing of this film. The weak pint of the movie was its unimpressive storyline moving around alien astronauts and the main villain, which could be seen as just a huge cloud.
The Lone Ranger
The Lone Ranger starring Johnny Depp proved to be a massive box office flop after its release. The film could appeal to the audience in a large number even though have the star cast like Johnny Depp due to its weak storyline. The budget of this film was huge, and so to get the losses recovered had become impossible when the movie flopped pouring water on the ideas of makers to launch its sequels.
Superman Returns

The story of this film could not meet the expectations of people, which was in their mind after watching earlier parts of this movie. The movie revolving around a love story was proved very much dull for the film.
The Golden Compass
The Golden Compass, based on His Dark authored by Philip Pullman, was directed by Chris Weitz and released in the theatres in the year 2007. It was, however, doing good business at the international box office but failed to be hit in America, and this affected the revenues of the film. The makers dropped the idea to launch its sequels and aired it in the form of TV series.
John Carter
