Low quality as in ‘the visual spectacle is better in this Hollywood movie than in this other one’? Most people I know have no ear for dialogue, only eyes for explosions and titties (and soyfacing at characters from recognizable IPs) and sometimes, only sometimes, cinematography, so for the vast majority of people I’ve met the budget for CGI and cute/popular actors and actresses is directly responsible for how enjoyable the experience will be.
If not then no, not necessarily. Hollywood makes maybe 3 movies a year that don’t insult my intelligence and have at least enough depth that a serious conversation can arise from its themes. They have all the money in the world but, for me, the quality of ‘pop movies’ has steadily declined since the early 00s.
