With more and more studios being operated by corporate conglomerate suits, the big releases will continue to be more and more exceedingly risk averse as time goes on. So anything that really goes for it in a way that differentiates itself from the crowd is going to appeal to me purely on an "I'm glad it exists" level.

Granted, our tastes obviously differ on certain films, lol. But like you said, that's completely fine. I don't expect everyone to love the same shit I love, and I don't expect to love everything different that comes down the pipeline. But I'm always glad when something different exists.

And I'm always glad when any filmmaker can find their way through the sea of suits they have to encounter and still end up with anything remotely unique. I know firsthand how fucking impossible that can often be.
