    Nah, it’s worthwhile reflecting on things you like, even in public assuming no one is going to jump down your throat.

    The main recommendation I’ve gotten up to now is “Oh my God, you haven’t watched The Godfather?? You’ve watched so many movies” from one sort of person >.>

      Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m talking about. People do that with Star Wars a lot as well. Always gives me second hand embarassment.

      Plus like, leaving all else aside, I’ve never understood how peer pressure and making somebody feel lesser for not seeing a particular movie is supposed to make them enthusiastic about doing that (though of course much of the time that isn’t the point, it’s a mask for a smug sense of superiority)
