I agree with you overall. Although I'd point out that some people enjoy watching badly made and acted movies for a different reason. "The Room" is an absolute trainwreck that I enjoy watching.

But yes, you're right. It's funny how recommendation engines seem to rarely get it right as well. I find that the best recommendations come from friends that know me well enough to know what I'd enjoy.

Oh I enjoy bad movies! "Vampire Girl Vs Frankenstein Girl" Is a favorite. But its not really badly made - just bad.

Badly made movies have a huge hurdle - hard to watch, hard to understand, hard to even see what's going on. Hard to want to keep watching. Like all those Monty Python jokes about somebody boring - they didn't amuse me, they were just boring.
