the fact that most movies rely on special effects and hype, as opposed to strong story lines and good acting, really turns me off as well. CGI might have been a big deal 10 years ago, but the honeymoon is over. Movies really need to get back to what made them interesting in the first place.

This sums up my thoughts to a tee. So many movies are just plain BAD and people flock to them because they have amazing effects. With todays technology, effects are not an exception, they are the standard and should be flawless, therefor making them have no weight as to whether or not I will see a movie in the theatre.
Star Wars 1 ruined the other two for me. Spider-Man 2 ruined all future Spidey movies for me. I'll never see 2 and 3 of Star Wars nor another Spidey/Hulk movie ever again.
And remakes are ruining Hollywood. Come up with something original already!!
