I would think really good films will generally rise above whatever dated aspects (to varying degrees) they come with.
Sure, there's a great degree of subjectivity in all that, and even something like Tommy Wiseau's The Room can garner a cult following that sees a kind of beauty in it that even Wiseau himself probably never intended. For the record, I've never actually seen more than a few clips of The Room outside of what's shown in the end credits for The Disaster Artist...
Still...
Yeah, Highlander isn't a particular good film, but it certainly has its own cult following... and I still enjoy it now and then, particularly Connery's bits in it. Even something like Short Circuit, which I mentioned earlier, has enough fun (enough) moments for me to share a silly, good time w/ the family -- and we just finally did again (nostalgically w/ commercial breaks and all on the Roku Channel) the other day after avoiding it (and commercial breaks) for many hears, haha...
