There is a lot of truth in this statement.
If people stopped going to see bad movies, sequels, reboots, remakes etc they would stop making them. The reason Will Smith makes a ton of money is because most of his movies make a ton of money. If people stopped going to see his movies he would make much less. so long as people support the type of movies Hollywood is making, they will continue to churn them out.
As for there being nothing good to watch. That is is just not the case. Almost every week there are independent movies getting limited releases or releasing on DVD/pay per view that are very good. The problem is they might not be easy to find and you might have to drive a little further than normal to see them. If people support these movies more of them will get made.
