Well OP, now that most have eluded to your delusional state for thinking Hollywood would have any ulterior motive behind what they do other than the almighty dollar, I have a different take on it.
Yes, as some have stated, Hollywood is good at playing on the fears and hopes of people, tugging at your heartstrings, and giving you eye candy to satiate the most "discerning" of movie goers. They are also masters of predictive programming(Acclamation), building on old fears, the creation of new fears, and molding the perceptions and paradigms of generations of people the world over.
Hollywood is, and has always been, a psyop. Along with their aforementioned predictive programming, They are masters of NLP, hypnosis, and subliminal manipulation, programming the mindset of the masses.
Yes, they are trying to tell you something. And they want you to pay for hearing and seeing it too. It always amazes me how easily Hollywood gets a pass from everyone. They are as guilty and treasonous as any politician or elitist you want to point a finger at.
To ignore the underlying message and manipulation in movies and television, is exactly what they want. IMHO.

If you put all the money and time put into these recent films.. its in the hundreds of millions of dollars.. Why so many films relating to eachother? Now we have more..
The reason why we have so many films similar to one another is probably related to one of the following ways:
a) The end of the world is the main theme, started with 2012 Movie, but each movie has it's own twist on the story
b) The end of the world theme stirs a lot of drama and emotional thinking in the audience
c) The writers of the scripts of these movies can't think of anything else better than the destruction of earth
d) And finally.....these movies are using more CGI effects to bring about the idea of future advances in technology (by either alien or human race) and their cause on the destruction of earth. As humans become more evolved, they use, consume, and destroy natural resources to get to become a Type 1 planet
Speaking of Type 1 planet, it reminds me of this video by Michio Kaku that describes transitional changes between a Type 0 planet (ie. Earth at the present) and a Type 1 planet (ie. where Earth is going into).
I believe these many listed movies are trying to show us what a Type 1 planet is like and are trying to prepare us for this change (with the exception of John Carter, that's just pure fiction and fantasy...for now )
The movie which deal with aliens are either whacked out of concept (like Cloverfield...good movie btw), or very unrealistic (Avengers....but Stark Technologies a true possibility)
Battleship may represent a true alien race for a Type 3 civilization as well as Battle LA.edit on 13-12-2012 by Skywatcher2011 because: (no reason given)

These movies involve acts of terrorism and the US military.
This is all propaganda to show how important US troops are to fight terrorist activities.
You may even think of Osama Bin Laden as being the Godzilla in Godzilla 1998 movie. He brought down a couple of big buildings and even this Godzilla hid inside a cave/drain pipe/cave where the US submarines fired rockets into.

Note both these movies are out in 2013, because 2013 is coming, our way, because the old earth wasn't destroyed, now was it.

No, there's more to it than that. Pay attention to set dressing, the mannerisms of the actors and other minutiae.
You'll see it. Start with a movie on DVD; something you've seen a few times before.

Like most have said already Hollywood makes money for a reason and that to sucker us in which in most cases works very well.
