there are no better or worse hockey players

hockey players are subjective, its opinion based.

But players can win awards to prove they are better than others! They also produce stats that can be compared to other players to prove superiority!

Movies can do neither! Ow8..

no cuz opinion opinion opinion

also something about opinions

players are different.

movies are like paintings as ogres are like onions.

for example. which is the better painting?





its a matter of opinion.

you have to say why players are different

players are like strippers.

Mean Girls >

Also I think I can chime in

You guys are arguing over a subjective question. He asked which was better, not which had more academy awards

The term 'better' is relative. Furthermore, the basis of our discussion is intangible.

There are things you can quantify: Dollars, weight, distance

There are things you can't quantify: Emotion, justice, faith

We cannot conclude that one movie is better than the other because we are gauging emotion and opinion

If we were gauging it's box office success, then we could easily decide which is better

All we are able to conclude is that the majority of this part of the forum think that the movie is better, but that in itself does not translate to the movie being better. What makes it better or worse is a matter of opinion, and that will never be tangible


Tl;dr: Something can only be objectively better than something else if it is tangible and objective


Super tl;dr: Semantics

Judging art =/= judging movies
