I'm not defending the glut of crap that comes outta Hollywood these days - but I wouldn't dismiss everything as being in the same bin with Transformers. Every generation has its' sludge.
I'm sure audiences in 1957 (when The Bridge on the River Kwai came out) - would've jumped at the opportunity to see Braveheart, Gladiator, Private Ryan, LOTR, ...etc.
They still make great epics. They're just fewer and more far between, is all.
