I was pretending to be so in love with The Godfather that I saw this as an objective fact, rather than a matter of opinion.

I was also making an oblique reference to the meme that The Godfather is "the perfect film".

I was trying to be amusing, but apparently I failed spectacularly. I am ashamed.

This explanation makes it especially amusing.

I was amused!

godfather is bad and violent. but i was enjoying their cluelessness and your insistence.
