I have often spoke about how stories on Terra aren't "As good" and that we're just not story tellers like folks from Earth. The truth is, I use the part of TC's Earther brain to take my ideas and turn out the words. I figured a concrete example of just how bad it might be might be the Titanic Cinematic universe. Some examples of movies around the original (which is actually more or less a mirror of the Earth version plus a lot more sex and nudity in the car):
Titanic 2 - A well meaning WWII shipping magnate tries to use the blueprints of the Titanic to ship weapons to troops in England. Sadly, the Titanic 2 is shot down, and our brave American and the USO entertainer heiress are lost at sea.
Titanic 3 - During the cuban missile crisis, Cuban, in an attempt to build the American blockade, builds a ship using the Titanic blue prints ...but gets sunk, nearly starting WW3. The doomed American / Cuban love affair does not go well.
Mr Limpit 2000 - A revival of the classic but it is revealed that Limpit was actually descended from a dolphin that tried to save Jack on the original titanic.
Avatitanic - Unable to get his dream made due to the awful performance of Titanic 2, Terra's James Cameron made a space liner called the Titanic that orbitted around Pandora. The doomed love affair between Sigourney Weaver and the Face Hugger was disrupted by evil cat people.
Titanic 4 - Set in the 80's, this cross marketing feature included Jaws, Predator, Aliens, and Batman and is viewed as a cult classic. It also bombed, primarily because of the inclusion of Punky Brewster as a vampire slayer.
Titanic Forever (Titanic 5) - Necromancers raise the Titanic as a Ghost Ship where all of the characters from the previous Titanic fight off the Phantom from Phantom 9, Love Isn't Going Away Anytime Soon; wherein the Phantom Cinematic universe permanently became part of the Titanic one.
Namor - Fox held onto the liscense for this and made an X-men movie wherein they used their powers to raise the titanic and attack Atlantis. Namor stopped them.
