But, well, critics and directors are more invested in it than the casual movie goers? And I'm not judging here.

It's just my experience with many people that they go "woaah, x was awesome" or "the scene of (crass violence) was great". Given, those are often some dudes who partly want to come off as crass, probably also influenced by prejudices, but they're pretty much the target audience for many movies, video games etc.

I think you're right that it's not intended to be totally without moral value in most cases, but most people will enjoy villians without being judged by others.

I agree with your last line, but then casual viewers usually never run into a situation where they hear someone sincerely, seriously arguing that some villain who did horrible things is totally justified.

I still think there's a big difference between "approve" and "enjoy," but casual viewers generally take it for granted that when you say "I liked villain X", you mean you just enjoyed him. Fandom people, though, have usually run into a lot of people who genuinely DO approve of a villain, so are more likely to go "wait, do you mean you approve or do you mean he was just interesting/enjoyable?"
