I mean, "Holy shit, I was right all along!" feels better than "Holy shit, this changes everything!" I respectfully disagree. The last time I watched a twist I didn't see coming, I felt a sense of elation that having "called it" could never match.

That said, it's only a twist if you go in with preconceived expectations. So as a rule, you have to be guessing at what happens next if you want to enjoy it.
