This is everything wrong with the movie industry right now.
Look at what people like and what they're paying to see.
As oppose to what they should be liking and paying to see.
That's most spring lineups until the blockbusters start hitting. Have you just started watching movies? Now is when the shelve their risky or unreliable projects, summer is for big bucks and fall is for the films actually made with critics in mind.

TMNT, apocolypse and through the looking glass are all good and entertaining movies. They aren't citizen kane, but not nearly as bad as cancerous internet bloggers make it out to be.
The problem is with reviewers not the normies.

Most people that bother to see movies in theatres are children and the parents forced to take them. Or manchildren. Big fucking whoop.

He also compared Hannah to Kick-Ass because they both have a young female character, thinks I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry is a modern classic, thinks Live Free or Die Hard is the best Die Hard, compared The Road to Resident Evil, thinks Clash of the Titans is better than the LOTR Trilogy, prefers Transformers 2 to Transformers, and thinks CJ7 is deeper and more profound than There Will Be Blood.

If you actually read the reviews of what he dislikes, he makes a pretty good case for disliking them.
If a film is "universally-acclaimed" most of the time the critics are just echoing each other (see: The Force Awakens)

>not knowing film seasons
Late Fall/Early winter:
Long films that people will have the patience to sit and watch, comedies, "holiday" films, and films which are big draws for the season. (Harry Potter, Star Wars, Hungry Games, etc.)
January and Feb. are for films that are almost assured sleepers or non-hits. This is your indie films, low budget movies, movies the producers think won't sell but went too far in production to end, etc.
March is the "slush month" where anything with a potential to be a larger franchise or which have a decent shot at profit go but the studio isn't sure will carry summer. (Need for Speed, Neighbors, Transcendence, Chappie etc.)
April-early June are the pre-blockbuster months. Stuff that should almost definitely make the studio money in some way, but maybe isn't a triple A title.
Late June-August is for blockbusters. Triple A titles that make money.
September & Nov. are the "For Your Consideration" months. Oscarbait and studio wankery.
October is the break between the "For Your Consideration" months to have spooky films for halloween.
and then the cycle repeats

>movie industry
There's nothing wrong with the movie industry. The operative word is industry. It's there to spend money and make money. It's doing its job fine.
The bigger problem is people who claim to want to watch higher quality films but only pay attention to what Hollywood's churning out and nothing else. Maybe instead of complaining about how shitty the view is (despite the fact you can never change it) you try looking at something else?
