I know you're using hyperbole, but that's just factually untrue. I know many avid moviegoers who care about the craft just as much as the final product itself. Is it every one of my friends? No, absolutely not, some will still go see whatever Disney or MCU schlock is being put out now simply because of the brand label, but that's far from the general consensus. I'm aware that this is all anecdotal, but still, please try to overgeneralize a little less; the more frequently half-true opinions like that are spouted, the more likely it is that they become the truth (at least in the eyes of the big studios)
