Or, people who want complex plots dont watch blockbuster films; they watch indie movies.

The same way that if you want a literary novel, you aren't reading the latest YA best seller.

The super mainstream stuff is always going to go for broad appeal. There is nothing wrong with that, but the people who want something different are going to have to step outside the bestseller box the way they always had to.

It's a shame, because in an era when One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest and Annie Hall were winning Best Picture the blockbuster film and "indie" film were harder to differentiate.
