If the first movie is any indication, then the Avengers will probably become the biggest franchise.
But as it is now, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and LOTR are the ones that easily come to mind.

Star Wars has another trilogy coming out and has been huge in merchandise for decades.

Hellen Keller would know this.

Adjusting for inflation, Star Wars is likely #1

Yeah, Star Wars is still the king.
I love how well the Marvel franchise has done though; people I never imagined liking comics would talk about how much they loved Avengers. Marvel's becoming a powerhouse at this point.

Also Star Wars is still incredibly popular with merchandising and legacy.

Harry Potter is the only thing i could think of that would be close to Star Wars.
box office total:
Harry Potter - $7.7b
Star Wars - $4.2b
franchise total:
Harry Potter - $24b
Star Wars - $27b
Harry Potter has 2 more movies and it's done. Star Wars has another trilogy (possibly more) coming.
Star Wars is the clear winner.

It's not fair to really compare the franchise total at this point since Star Wars has thirty or so plus years on Harry Potter.

I don't think so at all. Having a 30 plus year start can't be just shoved under the carpet.
It took Star Wars years to come back to the big screen and with all the money the Harry Potter franchise made you can bet your ass it will come back to the big screen.

And you'll be there to finally watch it for the first time.

Bottom line, Star Wars wins.

Take your petty comments out of the thread. Try at least to be serious and be an adult once in your life, 37 year old.
