The Day The Earth Stood Still
We left the theater making fun of the movies. So much product placement that I could've barfed up McDonalds and picked up my LG phone. Pfft, that movie was pretty ugh. I would've rather waited to watch it on DVD or something. At least I could've returned it and got my money back.
Oh and Juno... I saw it and I was like "Oh. This was cool but not THAT cool. But apparently all the cool kids HAD to see it... So glad I saw it online and not in the theater... Oh yeah, Superbad too. It was funny but not SUPERFANTASICALHOLYSHITAWESOMESAUCE. It had it's funny moments. Oh well.

James Bond died in Casino Royale..funny enough its suppose to be his first mission...The thing is Craig and the two new Jame Bonds arent Jame Bonds AT ALL! They are Bourne movies...Want a Bond movie? Watch the Sean Connery age...those at least feel like you watching a movie about a spy...Kiutu said:

Dark Knight
It was not a bad movie but it was, by far, not the greatest movie ever as everyone says it is. The plot was convulated, the ending was depressing and unsatisfying, I hate the Batman with him using his "grunty" voice in a failed attempt to sound menancing, and while Ledger's portrayal was admirable, I felt his material could have been written better. It baffles me how people keep saying it's the greatest movie they've ever seen when I've seen much more epic movies that were written better and had much more talented actors.
Maybe people have bad long term memories when it comes to movies?

I would have to go with 2001: A Space Odyssey. I don't understand why that is the high water mark for science fiction.
Either Quantum of Solace or Napolean Dynamite. both were massive dissapointments that i was really wanting to enjoy
Well im sorry but I cannot accept that LOTR was overrated, perhaps its referred too as a fantastic series to often considering that its really a pretty dedicated cult film.
While I enjoyed pulp fiction and kill bill immensely I can completely empathise that they were both overrated.
But one of the true heartbreakers for being overhyped and an utter let down was the simpsons movie. I mean the simpsons governed my upbringing, they made better gags in regular episodes than in that piece of crap.
And finally every Will ferrel film other than anchorman and blades of glory, i kinda liked those.

Im sorry but Transformers was a big dissapointment for me. First of all, Shia lebuff!? Second of all, its like they took everything thats cool about transformers, and put it in the back seat to yet another love story. I get it, girls and boys like each other. Not every movie needs to remind me of this. Which reminds me, Pearl Harbor.
EDIT: Peter Jackson's LOTR was subpar.

This statement is full of truth. You forgot to add that the movie is movie about teen angst with gothic undertones just for the sake of making a movie about angst.Baby Tea said:
I don't see that Day the Earth Stood Still was overrated; I'm pretty sure everyone said that it was a steaming ball of pig snot from the get-go, (even if Keanu Reeves isn't a scientologist, I still hate him for how he mangled Don John in the Brannaugh remake of Much Ado About Nothing. So wooden and dry he would've caught fire if someone touched him with a spark... and I WISH THEY HAD.)
I agree with the person who brought up Citizen Kane, but if we're going to dig back into the classics, I think there are probably a few more that should be dragged out into the light: Gone With the Wind, Lawrence of Arabia, to name just two.

I'm sorry, matey, but you deserve to be keelhauled for those remarks. The Godfather is one of the deepest series of all time, for it put a human face on criminals. And the Holy Grail, well, that was an extremely inventive telling of King Arthur, I can tell you.dwightsteel said:
I don't get it, 2001 is one of my favorite movies.Frybird said:
Anyway, my most overrated movie would be The Dark Knight, not because it was bad but because it was so massively hyped and raved over.
