They do feel like different meanings to me.
Granted, I'm not a native English speaker, but my native language also uses the same word for many (though not all) of those. (For books and movies we'd use the words for ‘beautiful’ and ‘ugly’ instead. And for weather we use ‘beautiful’ and ‘bad’.)
Seconded, and I'm not a native English speaker either, although in my case I think they feel different because of how much I talk about ethics.
