Hollywood is the biggest industry in the world making movies.
I love movies, i'm part of film society and I don't like 90% of the ones coming from there. Crap after crap of sequels and special effects garbage with no content or complexity of characters (oh, and romantic comedies). And yet they are the top box-office ones. The success of a movie depends largely on money, actors, marketing and special effects. Very little on story, interpretation, photography.
Does this mean Hollywood is killing movies? Of course not. Does this mean I hate Hollywood? WHY? The fact that an industry can produce and attract millions of viewers every year is enough to give the OTHER movies a chance to be seen, to be noticed, to become successful by attributes other than great million dollar productions.
There are great movies from low-cost productions IN and OUT of Hollywood and in other countries as well, because as much as you can dominate the market with "non-movies", there is always room for every other genre... from horror to b-movie productions; from low-cost to porn; from personal visions to documentarys. The wider the industry gets, the more chances the kind of niche cinema you like gets to evolve and reach others.
The same happens in music or videogames. It's the nature of entertainment.
