    The title is quite confusing. It sounds like the last time all top 10 spots were occupied by sequels was 50 years ago. What they actually meant is that over the last 50 years numbers of sequels in top 10 was gradually increasing (starting from 0 in 1973/1974).

      if any movie can come close to the quality of Dune 2 I don’t care if it’s the 29th sequel in the Fraggle Rock cinematic universe.

        It helps that Dune part two wasn’t a sequel but the second part of a big movie. Much like The Lord of the Rings trilogy was a huge movie in three parts and not just a follow up because the previous one made a lot of money.

        Dune part one is amazing but the narrative is incomplete without the second one.
