The reason for more action and explosions is this: People are dumb. But the biggest sign that the overage movie-goer is completely stupid, is the popularity of superhero movies.
I can live with a nice dumb action movie, hell i like those just as much as i liked for example a great movie like Nightcrawler. Example of an action movie i liked is John Wick.
But superhero movies and Transformer movies are so repetitive, childish and dumb, yet they are the ones pulling the big audiences. Proof that the average movie goer is stupid.

the people are dumb comments are tiresome. you do realize you are people right? someone somewhere is claiming people are dumb, i.e., everyone is dumb. and if everyone is dumb then everyone has always been dumb, we're not dumber now than we've ever been as people, we're smarter.
movies are simplified to get a pg rating so families will take the entire family to a movie, buy the merch, etc. that's simply based on the math.
the average age of a movie goer is 12-17, so yes, according to adult levels of intelligence, the average movie goer is dumb, he's 15.
