How much could be due to the last decade's appetite for legacy sequels? If all the big business is in bringing back the stars of the prior generation's biggest blockbusters, then no wonder! Same stars, 30 years older. Star Wars 7, Indiana Jones 5, Terminator Whatever, and so on.

Also, is the "old people have fun" subgenre a newish one? Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Book Club, 80 for Brady, and so forth. Even one or two of those movies might bump up the average a bit.
