In my humble (a term alien to you) opinion, John C. Wrong, fiction stories (wether books, comics, games, movies, shows, manga, etc.) only have ONE primary purpose, to entertain. And I don’t know about you, but entertainment, like any other ART form, is HIGHLY subjective by its very nature. Sure, art can also be used to spread information or messages, or make people contemplate things, but entertainment is still THE primary purpose.
So, sure, I respect that you may dislike the Odyssey or Watchmen or TLJ and like Left Behind or God’s not Dead or such stuff. Even if I strongly disagree with your tastes and reasoning. But in exchange, do respect that people like me have other preferences. I have liked things the majority dislikes, and I have disliked things the majority likes; but I still don’t pretend like my tastes are superior to everyone else…
“Good art is a distraction. Great art changes people.”
And believe it or not, that quote really resonates with me. Some stories really have made me think about the world or morality or even myself.
