Movies you love that everyone else seems to despise

I have noticed that there are quite a few movies that I like a lot and have seen multiple times that others hate with a passion. Here are a few examples:
- Star Wars prequels
- Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
- Matrix Reloaded & Revolutions
- Avatar
- Superman Returns
- All 3 Transformer movies, especially the second one
Basically any movie with huge stakes (generally the world), some type of savior, awesome CGI, and a passable plot (not looking for a Shakespearean play here).
Is it just cool to hate these movies? They are simply fun experiences and obviously do really well at the box office. I watch movies to see awesome things happen and to truly escape, not to be reminded of real life.

You're telling the wrong board this stuff. That's like going to the food board and proclaiming that McDonald's is good food.
I personally enjoy those movies as well, although I wouldn't say they're great.

I really like the Transformer movies, but people seem to bang on them pretty hard.
I enjoyed Avatar, but I think I could only watch that movie every 2 years or so its so long and in depth

Vanilla Sky.
I always really enjoyed this movie and everyone who has seen it per my recommendation hated it.

Man on Fire
Any of the Police Academy Movies
I Know What You Did Last Summer
It's hard for me to say, my wife hates every movie that I like... These are the one's that stuck out to me...

The third one was passable, and they have semi-enjoyable moments.

I actually agree with these. Obviously not better than first, but still good.

It's a passable movie.
