Came across this. Interesting how perspective can drastically change one’s viewpoint.
My own somewhat parallel experience is in regard to TNG. In the beginning and for years I just couldn’t accept TNG. For me there were just too many things wrong with it. But over time my opinion mellowed as I revisited the series. No, it never became a favourite, but there was a fair amount of it I now liked and respected. But thats another subject.
In terms of the films I initially liked them all (TWOK-TUC), but soured on them to a degree over time. Now TMP is the only one that still works for me. The TNG have never worked for me and still don’t. The JJ films are unmentionable.
