Yeah, a story that includes a lesson as sort of an aside can still sometimes be good. But most of them try too hard and make me mad--either I'm mad cause I don't agree with their message, or I do agree and I get mad cause I feel like they've tricked me into seeing things Their Way!
Smart villains are always better then stupid ones, whether they're the protagonists or the antagonists. :3 Unless they're supposed to be stupid, of course. But sometimes people write villains that we're informed are very smart, and then the villains don't act like it.
