[QUOTE="John Crichton, post: 929881, member: 4779"] Agreed. There are always personal tastes involved when judging entertainment (and art for the that matter as they intersect) but there are benchmarks in place, even for the uninformed. Actually, my thoughts on "The Thin Red Line" are that it actually was a good film but I didn't like it at all. A movie like UHF is below average but I loved it. Taste does come into play, but objectivity is important to keep if you truly want to enjoy a particular medium. I'm not trying to tell anyone how to watch a movie or listen to a song but it helps before labeling something as crap. Personally, I think that most folks just don't get many of the films they don't like nor do they admit that the film is any good. I'm guilty of it for sure. :) [/QUOTE]
