Savvy.com (formerly xposed.com - read the funny reason for the name change here) has got a list of ways Hollywood can make good movies instead of mostly crap. I've snipped out the headings since most of these are self-explanatory.

• Less Formula, Less Predictable.
• Stop Recycling Old Shows and Storylines.
• Care Less About Opening Weekend.
• Avoid the Herd Mentality.
• Entertain Us.
• Challenge Our Presumptions.
• Use Special Effects to tell Human Stories.
• Give Adults Something to Watch.
• Give Us the Occasional Down Ending.

Last I checked, that's only 9 things. Not a bad list though.
