    Whether you had fun and the quality of the movie are not entirely related.

          I’m sick of these elitists telling me it’s gross to eat nothing but five cans of refried beans, like, let people enjoy things!

            I mean, nobody wants to admit they ate nine cans of ravioli, but I did. I’m ashamed of myself… The first doesn’t count. Then you get to the second, then the third. And the fourth, and the fifth I think I burned with a blowtorch. And then I just kept eating…

          That’s why I find myself staring at a half eaten jar of green olives or an empty sleeve of crackers during the wee hours. Sometimes we just want to get to the point and not bother with the journey.

        Evolution (2001) is an objectively bad movie.

        It is also one of my all time favorites because it’s fun and doesn’t take itself too seriously.

        Schindler’s List is an objectively good movie. It is decidedly not fun.

        Nah movies are ranked on a set of objective criteria such variety and use of color, the use of varied angles, runtime:budget ratio, and so on. Technically speaking the best movies are usually produced by accidentally dropping a cellphone from a hot air balloon

        No idea why you’re getting downvoted. Did all the lemmings forget how to experience joy? If you like the art, it’s good art. That’s the whole point.

        Some movies are intentionally not fun, because their message isn’t about fun things.

        Leaving Las Vegas isn’t fun.

        I think you should read my previous comment again.

        One can have fun watching a bad movie. One can have no fun watching a good movie.
