Yes, Hollywood's big movies do like relying on cgi and not story. However I still think it's necessary to have modern special effects in the movie or new audiences might lose interest, attention spans have dropped greatly since the original trilogy came out. Story should come first, but if not then good characters ought to be next on the list of priorities. Guardians of the Galaxy didn't have a great or original story itself, but the characters and their interactions managed to outweigh the cgi.
