Besides, what you're basicly saying is "if a person has a minority opinion there must be something wrong with him". It's not an uncommon way of thinking, but it's one that always makes me sad.
(Not to mention that I seem to recall about as many people who hated or just laughed at Titanic as those who loved it, so I hardly consider "not liking it" a minority view, at least not a very small minority.)

Agreed.
I respect James Cameron for the work he has done and his accomplishments... but, to me, Titanic wasn't amazing.
I know people who think it was and I understand their point of view. I know people who didn't and while for some of them it was just backlash against something popular, for others it was for more significant reasons.
The Dark Knight to me WAS amazing, but again I have heard good arguments for why people don't like it... and some people don't like it because it is popular.
Can't please everybody... ever.
