I dont think so. Gamers are more *nerdy* than the average person, and also are more likely to consider themselves *intellectuals*. There are tons of people, especially in the United States, who never read anything that's not for work.
I don't think likening cut scenes to movies is correct. Long cut scenes occur in few games. Though MGS4 is great, some people are annoyed by how artificially lengthened some of the scenes are by bad chocies of dialog.
