For me the first thing that comes to mind is Tales from Earthsea. I don’t think it’s excellent or anything and has plenty of problems but people act like it killed their dog. While it has its problems that have been covered extensively, I think it has a beautiful atmosphere and art.

IMO it would have been better received if it wasn’t advertised as an Earthsea adaptation and was just its own thing.

    I agree with this sentiment. I’ll watch literally any movie that catches my eye. If it’s good, I’m happy. If it’s bad, my taste develops and I’m happy. If it’s really bad, I’m having a uniquely great time shitting on an awful movie. The experience is nothing but wins in my book.

      It’s just that time is precious, and other activities can take precedence for some. So after having wasted enough time on bad movies or series, and with this huge amount of movies some kind of prefilter makes sense (for me e.g. a rather high imdb score which I’m often agreeing with)
