Well maybe right. What draws a general audience? A flashy trailer of the sun exploding or someone talking about their family issues?

I never said they're mutually exclusive. There's tons of big budget explosion movies that have great scripts. Dark Knight, Casino Royale, Matrix, The Bourne movies, Heat. The best movies have legs and continue to sell for years after release, exploding sun only gets you a good opening weekend.
