[QUOTE="Def_Jef88"][QUOTE="supermetroidfan"]

[QUOTE="Def_Jef88"]Besides, I dont know many people who like those except POTC and Anchorman. Most of them are fairly, small fan base movies.supermetroidfan

Napolean Dynamite was big. People were quoting it so much. I never got into and when I finally saw it not too long ago I was deely disappointed by it. One of the worst films ever. Nothing interesting in that movie.

It died fairly quickly...

Anyways, its still one of my favorite movies. It manages to be hilarious without all the filth thats all too common in movies these days. I think the lack of a plot or any real point at all added to the charm of the movie. Its up there on my list of favorite movies. In fact, its porbably my favorite comedy movie besides maybe Rush Hour.

I really couldn't find anything funny about anything going on being that everything was mostly boring as hell.

Actually I found that move so funny because it had no point. Another movie that is funny and has no point is "Waiting" which is one random and hilarious joke after another.

Well thinking about the movie it seems funny. But watching it is hard since it's so excuciatinlgly boring that it ruins what could have been funny.

The only reason I thought it was funny is because My friends and I have done alot of that crap that they did and I could actually relate to the jokes.

In my humble opinion, Naploeon Dynamite is your best choice, however, I find your lack of Armgeddon to be disturbing.

The worst part of it is that it was 3 hours long. Sucky movies that drag along suck even worse.

[QUOTE="Account_27"]The Departed.-MlKE-
I find it funny how everyone loved The Departed and then when it won the award for best movie people are like "wait a minute, Goodfellas didn't win the award and that was better than The Departed so this movie sucks now."

Goodfellas is the greatest thing by man(In my opinion). But I still enjoy the Departed, finally a gangster(Not lol I'm gangsta foo, but organized criminal/wiseguy/whatever) film, last I saw was Casino. Well, the Sopranos is pretty good, but that's a show.

Fight Club

The Exorcist

Kill Bill I&II - Pulp Fiction was a much better film.

Good Will Hunting

A Clockwork Orange - Most people just think it's cool to like this movie.

you got number 2 wrong, it should read like this

Napolean Dynamite: It's extremely boring, apparently talking a mildly retarted voice makes a guy funny, no funny lines/scenes in it at all, I don't even know why this movie is even popular, apparently dancing like an idiot is funny to people? Horrible premise, horrible story, just an all-around extreme definition of an overrated film.

1,2,and especially 5 aren't highly rated enough to be overrated. luccaface

My thoughts exactly. I also like how the most over rated movies of all time are all from within a 10 year period.

Why did you make this thread? You do know saying something is "overrated" means nothing, it just means you didn't like it. So this thread is just pointless opinion.

I think that we are misusing the word overrated to describe these movies. Websters defines the word over, when used as a prefix to mean excessive or to an excessive degree. The word rated whenused in this context means to determine or assign the relative rank or class of.

Now of the movies you listed the only one I do believe that was overrated (by the media) was/is the Pirates Series. I'm not saying the other movie are good or bad, I'm merely saying there wasn't all the hype around them like any of the Pirates movies.

I would like to through my own title into this category and say The Blair Witch movie was completely over-rated. All the hype and the special on TV, before and/or during the launch was too much. The movie in my opinion was just OK at best.

Anchorman I can understand, since pretty much anything Will Ferrell does is overrated. Napoleon Dynamite I can understand, because I get why some people don't like it, but I do think it's genius. The Pirates of the Carribbean series is a big budgetted special effects blockbuster franchise with an amazing cast, but there are issues with the story telling, so I can understand this one too. Twister... well Hell, I didn't even know anyone cared about the movie.

The only choice I take offense to is Fight Club. The movie in my opinion deserved its fame, because it was probably the most original film I saw at that time. It had just about everything. Amazing shots, brutality, humor, storytelling, drama, action, MEATLOAF! It's just a damned good all around movie.

I only saw the first Pirates movie, and enjoyed it. Now that people are saying the last two weren't that great, I might not watch them unless they're on TV and nothing else is on.

However, I have to agree with Twister, although I don't think anyone considers it a classic. "Let's tie my belt to this flimsy pole, no F5 tornado will take us away!"

Citizen Kane is one of the greatest movies of all time, if not the greatest. While I don't like Gone With the Wind, it isn't overrated.

Persaonlly I loved Fight Club, and have many more overrated movies that would fit up there than that.

How about Jaws, a cheap movie I saw absolutely nothing in. Jarhead, another absolute crap movie. The one that takes the cake however is the Dumb and Dumber series.I know many people who swear by these movies, yet having watched the first 2, I didn't laugh at either even once.

I hate when people throw the "opinion" card, but that's all this is. Ferrel has his own humour which admittedly, he based his entire career around, but it truely is his own, and he does it damn well. Napoleon Dynamite was a solid watch, but it was a huge hit and it got anoying real fast. If people didn't start saying everything in a Napoleon Dynamite voice for about a year after, the movie would have stayed funny. Pirates isn't the greatest series ever, but there's not a whole lot to complain about really. Over Rater? Maybe. But it's supposed to be a fun family action movie(a weird combo, but obviously it's working). Twister? Ok. This movie was crap. But how is it over rated? Nobody likes that movie!
