In the end, it makes sense to me to use the broad definition of a franchise, but obviously there are a lot of different ways we could have sliced it.
I get that. For me it just doesn't seem like a fair comparison. When you look at the franchise as a whole, I'm not sure any of them can stand up to a 20 movie extended story.

To your point. When I think of harry potter, fantastic beats doesn't even cross my mind. Same with Lord of the rings. I don't think of the Hobbit movies.
