You just have to say that some people are going to like it, and leave it at that.

Sure, it's frustrating when arguing logic vs emotion (very Trek-like, no?), but I know that the things that infuriate me about the movie are things that don't even matter to those who enjoy it.

I was talking to someone who won't read or watch Twilight because she rewrote the rules for vampires.

I always claim to be an apologist for genre movies, even though I know that most of them are crap. When so many of my friends love a particular genre flick that I know in my heart of hearts isn't a "good" movie, it's probably better to just let 'em.

I'm reminded of my pro-Suspiria arguments a year or so ago. I'm aware of the faults of the movie, but I feel that the pros far outweigh the cons. Many of my friends don't agree. C'est la vie.

I've made my points about Star Trek. I'm ready to move on.
