I think most movies that people see as “universally loved” are children’s movies, and the people who love them the most are those who watched them when they were kids. Sometimes, they’re not very good if you see them outside of their intended demographic.
Avatar the Last Airbender for me. I just can’t get into it. I’ve tried watching numerous episodes and given up or have seen countless clips that just don’t catch my attention. Seems most people who did started when they were fairly young and the love grew overtime, and all the power to them.
I know a person who doesn’t like Shawshank Redemption because she feels uncomfortable with enclosed spaces. And I’m personally not fond of movies with people who act like gangsters, so I’ve never felt particularly affectionate towards Godfather movies.
Funnily enough, I don’t like those movies either and are also perfect examples of the title post for me. I don’t think they’re good, I don’t think they’re bad. They’re movies that just sail right over my head and I’m like “I guess this one just aint for me.”
Atla is pretty long and if you didnt start watching it as a kid it could be pretty hard to get over the start of it. It starts off very slice-of-life-ish with some of the more mature themes sprinkled in between, and becomes much more dense later on. It’s also a story about a bunch of kids (who grow and learn to cope or deal with their issues later on) which isnt the easiest to identify with unless you started watching it at a young age.
