Ok, let's compare

Godzilla 2014 had 160 million dollar budget it made 529 million in the box office.

The first Star Trek had a budget of 150 million and it made 385.7 mill in theatres

Oh here's anotherone that Disney has its greedy claws in, Deadpool had a budget of 58 million and made 783.1 million in the box office.

LucasArts has pulled funding for all of the anthology starwars movies and is focusing entirely on the third in the SJW trilogy. It's both a desperate attempt to repair the damage, while simultaneously preparing to abandon ship if that movie fails. The fact is, Star Wars was already dealt an ugly wound by the prequel trilogy. The newcomers had a lot to prove and a lot to make up for, they've failed. So badly in fact that not even the nostalgia built by one of the franchises most beloved characters could get them to make a profit.
