Lets switch to a sports metaphor. Is it like saying Michael Jordan is the best basketball player ever, but I like Charles Barkly better?

: ...for example, in my opinion Stanley Kubrick is the greatest director ever, however Dario Argento is my personal FAVORITE director. I mean, his films are all very flawed but I just love them so much- I'd never rank them up there with Kubrick's stuff as far as "greatness" but I love them so. Understand what I'm getting at? I think that's what Alfred Packer meant too.

: : I'm not criticizing your picks, but isn't probably the number 1 characteristic of all good films, that they are enjoyabe. To me, you're saying "American Beauty was better than Toy Story, but I liked Toy Story more." Please explain.
