He said not everyone can handle it, implying there’s something with people that don’t like it.
There’s this irritating Emperor’s New Clothes thing with movies and TV lately where creators can make the most boring stuff imaginable, and then when people say it’s boring you simply imply they aren’t smart enough to understand it.
And to add to my previous point: even if he has objective criteria, they are worthless if he doesn’t specify them.
I would actually even argue that with movies the subjective rating is part of its objective success. You can do everything by the book and still lose if no one likes it.
