no, I think with the cinema being as expensive as it is, people have higher expectations, especially when it comes to special effects in big hollywood blockbusters.

if it's a thriller, or courtroom drama, I think a lot of people are less likely to see that at cinema, with home systems being so good, and films being available at home so good, but they expect the high caliber of acting you see in films and TV.

Comedies as well, ppl want to be entertained and made to laugh.

I think you're asking the wrong question:

Do film companies take less risks and just churn out lots of similar films knowing that's what sells, and have low expectations of their audiences?

With so much quality content out there, ppl are more choosy I think about what they watch.
