Critics argue that the movie is poorly written because its plot is predictable. But these critics are themselves failed screenwriters. Thus, the movie's writing is actually quite good.
The argument is flawed because it
- dismisses a position by impugning the personal circumstances of those who advance it rather than engaging with the substance of their claim.
- presumes that whatever view commands the agreement of most people must therefore be correct.
- concludes that a claim is true solely because no one has succeeded in proving it false.
- never settles on a clear and workable meaning for the word 'predictable.'
- shifts from showing that the critics' reasoning is unpersuasive to concluding that their opposite verdict is established.
