Not the op but I've felt the same way in the past about certain subjects...

Sometimes it's just that the person posting their opinions seems to know what they're talking about - because they know all the right words / they use all the jargon for the subject and sometimes it's easy to forget it's still just their opinion and not actual fact - no matter how "knowledgeable" they seem to be on subjects like acting or literature or whatever it is.

Hm...well, I'd just try to remember that it's okay to form your own opinions, and try to come to terms with the fact that not everyone else will agree with them. Even if they aren't popular ones, that's shouldn't matter; you don't have to accept someone else's word as law regarding subjective material. And I understand some people are extremely well spoken and have loads of charisma, so if your own opinions aren't that strong then you might be easily swayed by their 'knowledge'.

I'd also hazard that maybe it has to do with the kind of insults that come along with these seemingly-factual statements about acting quality.

"X can't act, and if you can't tell that, you must be blind!"

"Y is so terrible, the only reason anyone could stand them is because they're hot!"

"Z's performance was so terrible, any real fan should be mortified!"

There's a strong current of not only "my opinion is right" but also "if you disagree, then you're stupid/ignorant/don't know what you're talking about."
