No, I'm saying that it is possible to be moved by an argument someone puts forward without having every single fact available on the given subject.... You must have opinions about things that you don't fully understand or appreciate and sometimes those opinions must change based on other information that you receive that isn't primary source.
The thing I have questioned is your comment that a blind vote, based on a strong argument put forward by a peer, is 'worthless'.
Also, no one has asked you to back anything you don't want to, so I'm not sure why you feel that you are standing against some sort of peer pressure. It's
you that is criticising other peoples backing of a tiny percentage of movies they haven't seen.
And as for the whole Justin Beiber angle.... Did you ever stop to think that maybe you are the horror equivalent of a Justin Bieber fan? :p
