<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>So yes, if <i>you</i> didn't like The Matrix, then <i>to you</i> it is a bad movie. When people say "The Matrix sucks" it is implied that <i>they</i> think The Matrix sucks. It does not mean that according to some objective standard of suckage, independent of any one person's opinions, The Matrix sucks.
So stating that Titanic was a great movie <i>because</i> it won a whole bunch of awards and was critically acclaimed is nonsensical. Some of what we consider great literature was not popularly received at the time. Does that mean that at the time, was in fact bad, and when people started to like it, it became good? That's nonsense.
<i>If your response is that I just have bad taste in movies, then look at your own opinion on Titanic and I will apply the same concept to you.</i>
Of course, that's fair and rightly applicable. Your opinion on movies is not inherently better than mine - and nor are my opinions inherently better than yours. It is <i>my opinion</i> that you have bad tastes in movies (well, this movie), and it may be <i>your opinion</i> that I have bad tastes in movies. Who's right? Neither, it is an inherently subjective judgement. The concept of absolute rightness does not apply. There is no objective standard from which to determine who is right.</div>
