Again enjoying something doesn't make it great some people might enjoy Titanic or Avatar but if they had the slightest clue about movies they never would put either in their top 100 movies of all time list.


Opinions vary. One mans bag of rubbish is another mans bag of treasure. 

Define great. You tell me what makes a great movie or a great videogame.


There is no magic formula that defines what makes a great movie or game.  That being said Titanic or Avatar will never be considered great.  Also with games most of them don't age well so what is considerd great now might not be so in the near future.  With movies its a different story Django Unchained is a great movie now a will be so in the future also.  As a matter of fact over time its greatness will probably increase.  My original point still stands enjoying something doesn't make it great.  I enjoy Kung Pow! Enter the Fist I would rate it 7/10 which is miles higher then its 14/100 metascore but even though I enjoy it I wouldn't consider it a great movie.  There are plenty of people that enjoy things that are really only mediocre or even bad that doesn't make something great.


Umm titanic is overrated, but a massive about of oscars and critical acclaim, it sure is considered great.
