I 100% get this and I think a lot of people are missing the point. It's like going to a football game without knowing the rules, which team is better, or who is winning and having fun anyway. It's not having fun watching people suck because shitty football can be funny.
Some movies (Marvel, Fast and Furious, Transformers) are Pepperoni Pizza. They are not a 7 course dining experience because THEY DIDNT SET OUT TO BE!
If you sit down to a pizza and tell me its the worst soup you ever had, you're a dumbass.
It's not even about does this movie live up to the hype or type of movie or does it tell the story well. It's there is a giant tv in front of me, stuff is happening on it, I'm with friends, there are snacks, I'm not even sure who's who, what's going on, or even what language this is in, but I enjoyed doing that we are doing this thing. It's just the entertainment clears the absolute lowest bar. And I had fun doing that. The 10% not enjoying it is if something takes away from that like being sick or them being out of milk duds.
