If you start looking at movies on a moral level - I don't like that, that hurts, that's mean, that's bad - then I don't even want to talk to you. Or like, someone that says I don't like science-fiction movies, or I don't want to sit through a Western, or I don't like violence in movies, then I completely tune out.
