"I'd like this movie/game, even though this reviewer didn't" Oh, I do that all the time. I used to figure that when ever the reviewers in Locus magazine got condescending "if all you are looking for in a book is a plot that moves well, this book might satisfy you, BUT..." that meant I would probably like the book, and anything they raved over I probably wouldn't like. Too much emphasis on "literary" quality, and not darned near enough on good stories, for my taste, some of them reviewers.
