So Transformers 2 & Bad Boys 2 -> Goodfellas & Departures (Okuribito) if we apply that same logic to movie's?

Well given those films all released in different years (different decades even in some cases), I'd say your comparison is inherently flawed.  None of those films were in direct competition.

Uh? It's just to reflect the difference between a commercial film and less commercial movie's which are better.

By the way, even today people prefer to see the ramdom Michael Bay flick than a Martin Scorsese flick.

 

In terms of the market?  The commercial film is probably "better".  Commercial films can still flop though (ie: Waterworld), and less/non-commerical films can be huge hits (ie: The Blair Witch Project).

To extend this to games, how would you define a commercial and a non-commercial game then?  Are Nintendo games commercial while PlayStation games non-commercial?  

No I say the mainstream ussually goes to what is more accesible or better marketed to them. Games like Mario Kart Wii (probably the worst in the series) and Wii Sports do that well, just like Transformers 2 does that in the movie industry, while a movie like Shutter Island is still pretty commercial (DiCaprio), it will always appeal to less poeple simply because it just isn't as accessible and there are audiences that you just can't reach with those kind of movie's.
