Learning the difference between
- it’s bad (affectionate)
- it’s bad (craftsmanship/quality)
- it’s bad (I don’t like it/it’s not for me)
- it’s bad (promotes or perpetuates harm directly)
- it’s bad (actively benefits missing stairs/bad actors)
- it’s bad (seems to have nothing to say/incoherent)
And - it’s bad (has not aged well, regardless of quality at time of creation)
Has been a big step responsible for a huge element of personal growth and it all started with “ok but WHY do I love bad movies so much” im not even kidding
Anyway more people should have their own personal Manos or Six-String Samurai on their list is what I’m saying
Oh I am taking this list and showing it to my students to explain why they're not allowed to ever just say a game is bad
