I know this poll will not settle the debate, but people complain all the time about new blockbusters being bad, sequels being bad, etc. In this list, 8/13 come from established franchises. And, 9/14 made more than 500 millions at the box office (counting Dune 2 because it will surely make more than 500 millions.
If people think new blockbusters are that bad, they should ponder whether they liked these films or not, then they should pounder if they liked as much films of any other decade lets say the 1980s. I suspect that most people's impression that films have gotten worse is rooted in the fact that they have only watched the older films whose reputations have endured.
My personal opinion agrees with "Sturgeon's Law", 90% of everything is garbage, it is unavoidable. It is the duty of the viewer to anticipate what he will like and spend his money accordingly. There is no need to whine. You can ensure that the movies you watch are good (about 75% of the time), but you cannot ensure that all movies are good.

Please edit:

It might also be good to clarify that these are their highest positions, not current.

@Maxence_G ,
Congratulations on having your poll, Highest-Rising Top 250 Films of The Last 10 Years, go live.
This is an interesting concept for a poll and has the potential for a series of similar polls.
For instance:
Highest-Ranked Top 250 Films for the 1920s
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) is the earliest film to appear in the IMDb Top 250
https://250.took.nl/title/tt0010323
... as confirmed by these searches.
https://250.took.nl/titles/year/1920
https://250.took.nl/titles/decade/1920
The criteria for each decade would need to be adjusted to have 2 to 35 choices in each poll.
If you do not wish to pursue this concept, may other poll authors do so?
