That person was clearly unhappy about that one specific thing not being appreciated. That doesn’t mean they feel that way about every piece of media they enjoy.
And to be honest, it’s totally fair. When I recommend a movie to someone, it’s not because I want them to love what I love. It’s because I want to share my joy (or whatever feeling is appropriate to the piece) with them and it’s a bit sad if they can’t experience that feeling as well.
ok, you use the word “recommend,” while the person i responded to said “force,” which i’m sure doesn’t mean at gunpoint, but by being insistent, demanding, naggy, and other insufferable behaviors, and then got upset that they didn’t instantly become also obsessed.

is that you?
You’re right, I glossed over the use of the word “force”. For those less forceful and more reasonable, my comment stands.
