This reminds me of some advice about whether or not to marry a guy [In reply to] Can't Post
yeah - maybe they aren't perfect ... but in the end, is your life better with them in it? If you want to keep them then maybe there are some flaws - but who doesn't have flaws?

I do see some things in the films that I think could have been done differently or some small things I didn't like but in the end, I am glad they are there and enjoy life more with them than without them - and really, while I can imagine the "perfect film for me", will I ever really find just what I imagine out there somewhere? I'm doubting it! So I thankfully accept these films and enjoy them.

But I guess there is a difference between "yeah I like it but there are a few flaws" and "I didn't really like that - why?". Both might sound like each other when people are discussing nitty gritty details but they aren't really the same thing.
