More Predator films and Aliens movies with Colonial Marines would fix Hollywood. Also annual live action remakes of The Transformers (1986), with higher budgets each year, would be advisable as well.

Turn theaters into literal bordellos with new releases playing in the background; watch people complain about $30 for a ticket + popcorn when it was only $5 back in the 1980s.

If it costs more than X amount of money it's a "spectacle" and not a film.

All the movies coming from the studios should - as a requirement - come in a set variety of stratified budget brackets with different box offices like weight classes in boxing or wrestling.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
Stop only making movies that are part of some comic book universe. Stop making movies for China.

I thought that the only solution is to hide until the whole "Cinematic Universe" crap has squeezed every single nerd and China dollar dry, and collapsed into itself because of the ever increasing budgets...

...and then loving Suicide Squad and BvS are still making money. Never underestimate how little comic book fans care about how lovely the product is. So no solution is viable until the customer base stops being poo poo, I guess?

Less focus groups, testing and consultants. Less doing everything they can to try to ensure stakeholders that they will see a safe return on their investment. It doesn't work anyway. Movies still fail, they are just more boring about it. I want more coked up creatives making crazy decisions that sometimes work out great and sometimes don't.

Also stop pandering to me. I suck and resent seeing my lame wish-fulfilment desires cynically reflected back at me.

comic fans can't even keep the tiny comics industry afloat. internet nerds are a vocal minority who have little to no effect on the success of movies about nerd poo poo.

There is a big difference between wanting your family to eat and making something that creates something spectacular. Here is the horrible secret about movies that don't suck:

They have already been made, and most people didn't watch them.

I consider myself one of the people who didn't watch these wonderful masterpieces of film. Because there are so many of them, and time counts - and it keeps counting. And on your death bed, your immovable and vitriolic eyeballs will lose their luster.
