I personally find obvious inaccuracies that I, as a not particularly well educated person, can still pick up on to be the entertainment equivalent of going out to eat and realizing my salad has grit in it.

Like, I’m not entertained by ostensibly historical movies that don’t either make a conscious choice to go “anachronisms for everyone, fuck yeah this is fun!” or alternatively to at least make an effort to not have, idk, a doctor in 14th century Prague warning everyone about the dangers of bacterial cross-contamination.

If there’s gonna be blatantly wrong shit happening in a historical movie, I want it to be because it’ll make a comedy funnier, or draw a more obvious parallel with an equivalent modern situation, or for some other considered reason that’s not “people don’t care about facts or history, only sex and explosions and witty one liners, so we as screenwriters/directors don’t give a shit either.”

i mean, sure, but not meeting your personal preferences is not necessarily failure in a movie, is it? there is an audience for movies which put their focus elsewhere.
mind you i share your taste, but for example the popularity of police procedurals tells me a lot of ppl don't give a fuuuuuuuuck about any degree of accuracy and so producing things that way is valid.
