Yeah, but it was 1902. People were impressed with moving pictures in general back then, regardless of what it was. For fuck's sake, they were experimenting with a brand new medium. You can't apply that to the films of today.

Special effects films with little to no plot have been going on ever since though. So why is it such a bad thing for a brainless effects extravaganza to come out nowadays? It's not like "good" movies aren't being made anymore either, so I don't see an issue with people enjoying forgettable popcorn flicks.
