I agree that blockbusters are mostly trash these days, in contrast to the popcorn films of years gone by, by to say nothing is memorable since 2008 is hyperbole.
They need to rejig how movies get paid for streaming. Give the movie makers a payment each time their movie gets streamed. People are still spending their DVD money (and likely more) elsewhere. It's juts not always getting to the people who make the content.
