That's exactly my point.
Special effects action extravaganza films don't have to be awful like Michael Bay's Transformers movies. It's completely possible for talented filmmakers to produce movies with exciting action and amazing special effects while ALSO having good stories, writing, acting, directing, and cinematography. This is why I don't give the Transformers movies a free pass because "they're just action movies about giant space robots, what were you expecting, Citizen Kane?"
