In 1981 there were seven major original films released, two sequels and one adaption. Fast forward to 2011 and Hollywood produced eight blockbuster sequels and two adaptions. In 2011 there were no original films produced which were in the top ten grossing films of the year. The only original film in 2011 which made it in the top 15 grossing films of the year was Bridesmaids, which came in fourteenth place.
