Or no?

Jaws was totally milked. Maybe it just doesn't seem that way to people today because its been 34 years since the last one, but back in the day it was clear to everyone they ran that shit into the ground.

Jaws - $260M
Jaws 2 - $102M
Jaws 3 - $42M
Jaws 4 - $15M

Milked dry. Jaws (and Rocky) was pretty much the punchline to any joke about endless sequels.
