I don't know how others use mplayer, but I've been typing mplayer -whatever /path/to/file for years now, and I never felt the need for gmplayer or any other GUI, but I'm sure I'm not the reference implementation of "Joe Average User" ;) However, there's still VLC and smplayer for those who need a GUI.
