As always, I know no one cares about what I think, but I'm going to say it anyway.
I don't buy that we are all responsible for the 'poor quality' of movies and media in general these days. That isn't to say I disagree with the point Bob is making, I actually wholeheartedly agree. However, we are not all equally responsible for every movie that comes out and neither are we all the reason for these movies being bad. After all, we didn't all go out to see the Transformers movies.
The real 'problem' if you can call it that is the wildly different types of audiences that are out there. There is no general public or public audience, there are numerous audiences each after a certain thing. Just like Bob said in the video, the reason why Michael Bey is so horribly hated by everyone is because so many different audiences can find something to hate in his productions. We all hate him, but for different reasons.
And that is why movies like these are so popular.
Because with all the bitching and moaning you hear from allegedly everyone, there is an audience for this kind of thing and they are the reason more of them are being made - they pay to see it, and they'll pay to see more. But there are also audiences who very much don't don't don't like Bey's movies, as you can see above. There will never be a perfect movie industry - or any industry for that matter - because we all want something different out of our product. There will be product that you don't like, as there will be product you love that someone else hates. You might hate that slop, but obviously someone else loves it. And I can always go for some more fries.
Oh, and please don't try to bring up objective quality. That's a whole different - though admittedly related - debate.
Chin up for those of you who do hate the Bey movies, however, because we live in a world where change is the norm. It might take a few years, it might be a few decades, but eventually these movies will fade just as they manifested. I'm with you, by the way, in that I'm hoping more "intelligent" movies will be made and more audiences will be happy with those too and more dissatisfied with the ones like Bey's Transformers. We can do our part to hurry up the process, but please, don't hate your fellow human beings for liking what you don't. I know how hard it is not to.
