That's true, however if the majority of movies are like that, most people will watch them, shifting movie culture toward this kind of movies. Sure, niches could form, but given a movie requires a lot of money, that's really hard. Besides action/blockbuster movies, also so called "artistic" movies are generally worse in quality than the past (I don't think this is just nostalgia). One related thought: doesn't make sense that every year someone has to win an oscar. There should be years without a winner at all. That's not allowed, so winning an oscar doesn't really set a quality goal but it's bounded by a year timeframe
