    Good for you that they are currently showing some films that you want to see. Where I am the cinema listing is as follows....

    Twilight New Moon
    Law Abiding Citizen
    A Christmas Carol
    Nativity
    Up
    The Fantastic Mr Fox
    2012
    A Serious Man
    Paranormal Activity
    Situations Vacant

    Ughh.

    Well, in fainress, there are four great films up there:
    Paranormal Activity
    Up
    The Fantastic Mr. Fox
    A Serious Man
    That's not bad for autumn, in fairness (a notoriously crap time for movies here - as we wait for January for most of the Oscar contenders).

    I don't believe cinema has been any weaker the past few decades than it was before. If you averaged out how often we saw a great movie during the nineties or the eighties, it'd be about the same - you'd be lucky to have a good film once every three or four weeks.

    I put together my own top fifty films of the decade over the weekend (yes, I'm a nerd), but I'm actually quite pleased with how the past ten years went.

    Nice list there albeit very different to my favourites of the past decade. But creating a list like that confirms that great movies are still being made on a regular basis.

    What you claim to be "dribble" OP may be a masterpiece to others. Depends on what you're into really.

    Pick a random film and take a chance.
