    6 Blockbuster Hollywood Franchises That You Need To Watch, Like ASAP

    Hollywood is the holy grail for sequel-driven cinema. And, it can be argued, as a result, a lot of 'art' has gone out of cinema. 

    But if we become positive and look on the flip-side, it is this largely commercially-driven reason that has raised cinema's popularity and given heightened movie-going experiences to audiences. It might be because the viewers are more invested in the story when the story is carried out in episodes or the fact that it allows the filmmakers deal with a large scope of material. But whatever might be the case, franchise movie making is something we are deeply grateful for.

    Here is an essential list that you need to watch:
