>he thinks film can be criticized objectively
arguing opinions will always be a waste of time
>I'm too young and insufficiently versed to have seen (or recognized) objectively bad movies
>therefore objectively bad movies don't exist
You're basically claiming oceans aren't real because you've never left the desert.
Consensus is its own form of objectivity. The only reason gravity is an objective fact is because scientists agree it is.

This. That's why Rotten Tomato is always right. Everybody who disagree with RT consensus is pleb and should not post on /tv/ anymore.

A good way to critically evaluate films is to focus on their ability to express the abstract in a clear and eloquent manner, particularly through methods that are specific to the medium of film.
You don't have to agree with that approach but it is one way to create a context that generates agreeable 'measures for good filmmaking'.

Art can be judged objectively.
There's a reason why your macaroni art from the 1st grade is in the trash while the Mona Lisa is sitting in the Lourve being praised by all, you goobers.

Can you explain why you think these are objectively good?

>can you subjectively define objectivity?

That's not really what I'm asking. I was asking if someone could explain to me why these movies are "objectively" good, cause I really don't understand.
There can be objective criticism of film, but it's basically just pointing out plot inconsistencies.
Aside from that, it's subjective.
