Well, we agree on the importance on the script but many times movies with a lausy script were very successful. A couple examples: Scary movie got a great performance at the box offices and at video and dvd sales and it got one of the worst scripts ever. Another, and possibly clearer example:
Titanic!!!!!: 1-It is the most awarded movie in history (tied with Ben Hur).
2-Titanic got pretty much all the technical Oscars, including best direction.
3-The movie make over 1800 million dolars worldwide.
4-Now raise hands all who think it got a great script????????
Remember that this year Good Will Hunting won the script category and this doesn't affect Titanic overall. We agree that a good script movie is important, but sometimes this got nothing to do with how much the movie likes to the audience.
