That implies there are no objective standards. Sometimes something just isn’t very good. Regardless of how many people like it.

and whether Twilight is objectively GOOD is of no moment to those who enjoy reading the books and seeing the movies. there are plenty of ACCLAIMED works that i simply have no interest in seeing. what does it matter?

It is the difference between literature/CINEMA and just plain ENTERTAINMENT. Not a soul on the planet is claiming Twilight is the former, but the success at the box office proves that it performs in the latter category.
