You could, you know, be less judgemental, especially for something simple like a favourite media franchise.

You're still refusing to acknowledge my point about why someone would consider it their favourite, and it has nothing to do with not expanding their perspective. It's you that refuses to expand your perspective beyond your own capacity to understand stuff.

Do I need to care what the plot is like? My favourite media franchise has a pretty terrible plot, as well. It's not the reason I love it. You seem unable to grasp such a simple concept.
