I definitely felt this way about the Hobbit films. Which, yes, I know everyone needed to remind me all the time that they are Objectively Not Good and I do know that but also I don't care, I want to like them. And I can only do that if I don't listen to people talking about how much they hate them. Being a member of Oxford's Tolkien Society, this was not easy, as you can probably imagine *gg* but I was quite ruthless about telling everyone that I wasn't going to discuss them and was going to leave conversations if they fell into an endless spiral of negativity. Because you know what? I do in fact like a lot of things in them and I am just completely blanking out the other bits and this works for me.

Actually, it's not even that I wanted conversations to be purely positive, it's just that I wanted space to be able to say "the costume and set designs were really gorgeous" and that to be just as valid as "the orc CGI was bad". Rather than conversations with people who hated it and therefore wanted to argue that every bit of it was terrible, because their overall opinion of it was Bad and therefore no one was allowed to find any part of it Good. And I couldn't deal with that at all.
