Is There Any Artistic Merit Amidst the Popcorn?

I really don't care how movies are when directors decide how they want to be. If a director is all about selling a movie just to merchandise off of, and for the popcorn sales, movies like Spiderman, or the Batmans. These kind of movies they aimed for families to go to in the theatres, and when families go to theaters you know that they are going to get popcorn and drinks. Movies like that will obviously come out with action figures that the little kids are going to want as soon as they see it and like it. These kind of movies aim for that kind of target, and is the reason why they make these movies. I also believe that it can be for entertainment purposes as well though. I mean i straight up like the action of Spiderman, and the story line behind the movie.

Other movie like The Lord of the Rings, and Harry Potter, are the kind of movies that sold mad merchandise, like action figure, and video games for all sorts of game systems. I for one didn't even dig buying any of the merchandise, because i liked the movie for the action and story behind it. It was a epic flick, as well as Harry Potter, which i wouldn't define much as epic, but its pretty good if you want to wish you were a wizard from a magical world or something.

I enjoy movies that open us to new worlds of wonder, much then movies that want you to buy products. Those kind of movies i enjoy watching on a regular basis because they are worth watching. It problem all depends on what type of audience its intended for as well. Disney would for sure make movies and base them on products. A good example would be the movie "Cars", which there were lots of merchandise for. The little kids would die for these kinds of things and make mommy and daddy buy the stuff for them. Movies like "The Bourne Ultimatum" would be a movie that you would watch only for the purpose of entertainment. Unless you found action figures of Matt Damon, these kind of movies are generally for watching.
