So you're a Jazz fan? ActuallY I think that's pretty cool. I am not a fan myself, but I respect the art form. I can find a musical style "not to my taste" but I can still appreciate it from a purely intellectual standpoint.
Take pure classical, like Mozart. I don't go around listening to Mozart and there are film where I think the usage of Mozart is completely and utterly wrong. But I will never say that Mozart sucks. I'm not a fan, but I am fully aware of his genius and the genius of his music.
But I see your point. It DOES seem that people tend to degrade other musical forms, but that's purely because of our ignorance of the type of music. I mean no disrespect to Jazz, but when I talk about it, I talk like a complete amateur/neophyte. I admittedly know nothing about it. I will try to be more sensitive to people's musical tastes in the future.
And as a side note, I've been especially CRUEL to fans of Speed Metal, when I poo poo their music in films. ;)
Dr. Kila Marr was right. Kill the Crystalline Entity.
