The collapse of the studio system in the 1950s (due to the Paramount antitrust decree and television’s rise) gave way to a brief, director-driven period: New Hollywood. However, the blockbuster reset the rules. Jaws (Universal, 1975) and Star Wars (20th Century Fox/Lucasfilm, 1977) taught studios that a single summer release could generate more revenue than a year of modest films.

Star Wars is a pivotal case. George Lucas, frustrated by studio interference, traded his director’s fee for sequel rights and merchandise licensing—a move dismissed as foolish at the time. Within four years, Star Wars merchandise had grossed over $1 billion. The lesson was not lost: ancillary markets (toys, theme parks, apparel) now drove production decisions. Studios transformed from storytellers into IP managers. Lucasfilm’s creation of Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) also centralized visual effects, a trend that would lead to the CGI dominance of the 1990s. | Studio | Parent Company | Signature Style
