    I have just learned to accept that if I enjoy the movie watching experience and feel it was worth my time, it doesn’t really matter what others think. That doesn’t detract from my enjoyment of the film in the slightest. I may be curious why people disagree though, at the very least.

    Movies don’t always have to be a slam dunk or a masterpiece. I watched the detective pikachu movie on edibles and had no clue what any of the plot was but I loved every minute because the visuals were stellar and something I’d wanted to see as a kid. The Ryan Reynolds shit had me mega confused lol

    Even if I didn’t like a movie, at least I have an experience to share (more applies to watching with someone else) and something to discuss and keep my mind occupied for a bit on something that is low-stakes at the end of the day.

    Even if I absolutely do not like a movie at all, at least all I’m out on is a little time and maybe money; and maybe I can bitch to a friend if they’ve seen it.
