The masses of people obviously do not care as much as you do about the story and are just there to enjoy themselves and watch optimus prime kick some robot ass. This trend will not change.

I think I see 1-2 movies per year at theatre's, so I already have stopped going. I'm not going to spend my money, and more importantly, 2 hours of my life on a movie that makes me feel dumber for having seen it.
Are you sure this is what people want or are they just going for lack of better options? Or are they buying what hollywood is selling them? I'm not so sure that people are the driving force behind movies with paper thin plotlines.
The fact is hollywood blockbusters focus primarily on making money, and secondly, making a movie. Until "the people" decide they've had enough of that, then you're right, the trend will continue.
