The longest franchise movie of all time

In the cinematic universe, Marvel had several dozen films that were strong and made several films almost every year since the beginning of 2008. The predominant Tom McU has inspired several conversations of scientists and critics in which they reflect on the series as one of the longest cinema history. This, of course, is by no means the longest. Indeed, the close study of the movie history will immediately open the franchises of the films that are conveniently superior to it.

For example, you can think at once about the hour, a series of movies, which has since his debut in 1954. To date, 38 feature films (both in Japan and in America) have been made in Franchise “Godzilla”. Some fans who have entered a deep level may remember what there is that Already 43 animated movies to Barbie Mattel’s MattelAnd this does not even consider the living blockbuster Greta Gervig. These 43 films have been made from 2001 to the present.

If a person deepens the movie history, it can be discovered that there are several ancient Western franchise, which stand over all other fruits and longevity. In addition, delving into Japanese films tokusatsu and martial films, they will also find some franchises, characters and stories that have installments in the 90s and 100s.

Currently, the longest film franchise in the movie history is a Wong Fei-Hung movie series, most of them made in Hong Kong since 1940. Wong Fee-Hung was a combat artist who lived from 1847 to 1925, but he came into cultural benefits thanks to many, many films made about him. Today, 123 won the Fay Hang films.

Of course, no matter how Wong Fei-Hung movies are considered a “franchise” for discussion. Yes, there are 123 won the Fai-Hung films, but they were all not made by a single manufacturing company, and all of them do not follow the same continuity. For example, Jackie Chan played wong (apparently above) In the 1978 film, “Drunk Master”, And this movie has nothing to do with six films in the “Once in China” series, which starred Jet Li (and later Vincent Zhao) like Wong. The “once” series, by the way, is often called the best series of martial arts all time.

Hung himself even played in Wong in the 2004 American remake “worldwide for 80 days”. The counting of Wong’s films as the only “franchise” can be questionable. It would be like to say that every adaptation of “Dracula” Bram Stoker is part of the same franchise. There are many, many films about the dragon, but they are not all works. In addition, since Wong Fay Hung-Naro-Hero, his stories are publicly available. Thus, there is no single control over the corporate interests behind all the films, linking them as a “franchise”.

However, you can point to the numerous Wong Fei-Hung films that made Kwan Teang as the only franchise. Kwan has played Wong Fee-Hung in at least 77 films (although some may be lost) since 1949 and lasted in the 1980s. All these films are supposed to follow the only continuity, claiming that they are the same “franchise”. And although 77 is a distant cry of 123 films in Tota, it’s still an impressive series of movies.

However, other series have 77 records.

Kamen Rider’s television series debuted on Japanese television in 1971, and it returns periodically. The very fruitful series also gave rise to many theatrical features, many of them again cut versions of television episodes. Many films “Kamen -Swamp” are shorts, but they are definitely considered because they were really released in theaters. Like Godla, the “stone-gonishman” repeatedly restarts on the new “era”, and the fan with a deep expression will be able to tell more carefully about the division and nuances of different generations “stone-veil”.

The premises are fun: in the nearest world world the world is in the clutch of a shocker, a depressing terrorist organization founded by former Nazis. Shocker has advanced technologies that allow them to abduct anything suspected of citizens, wash their brains and turn them into slaves Cyborg. Kamen’s titular racer was mutated (in part-Marcopeger) and assimilated, but they escaped before washing the brain part of the procedure. He became a superhero who sought to fight and destroy Shocker. He also loved to use a motorcycle, hence the “rider” of his name.

The first movie is “Kamen -Honor Reboot 2023 Hideako Anno “Tire stone”, The film, which rests on the same film production as “Tire Ultraman” and “Tire God”. Like the Godila, there is no one, the firm continuity of the stone rider, but unlike the Wong Fay Hang movies, they all control a single corporate person. So, Kamen Rider is the longest franchise of the movie of all times.

The longest American series in the American film is probably 72 Westerne film production with Roy Rogers, released from 1938 to 1951. Roy Rogers, of course, was a prolific and popular cowboy performer, which was most famous on the show show, cowboy songs and his horse, right. His Roy Rogers Show TV series was one of the most popular on his day, and he popularized the song “Happy Trails”, which many of us know only through cultural Osmas. We also dwelling “Yippie-Ki-Yay” thanks to Rogers. (No, John McClane didn’t come up with it.)) In the republican images, 72 films about Roy Rogers were displayed, and all of them seem to follow extraordinary continuity.

Roy Rogers movies can become the longest series of films stated by one studio, following the same actor, and is in the same continuity. Roy Rogers always played the folk version of himself.

Roy Rogers’ first film was “Under the Western Stars”, and it was about Roy, who fought with evil water fat cats who wanted to charge farmers for using their utilities for agriculture. Roy Rogers was not covered, but was a terrible gun, but a noble, gentle, soft hero in a white hat. In 1944, his longtime partner Dale Evans joined the movie “Cowboy and Seniorit”. Roy and Dale married in 1947 and were married to her death in 1998. 72 and the final film about Roy Rogers was “The Golden West”, released in 1951.

72 films from 1938 to 1951 are about 5.5 films per year. Those who speak about the broad nature of the Marvel cinematic universe will be well aware of the busy cinematic life Roy Rogers.
