jhauser · 02-18-2004, 11:21 AM

What do you think?

American Beauty
Paris Hilton filmed with night-vision equipment
My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Vanilla Sky
Any others?

Strife · 02-18-2004, 11:31 AM

I wouldn't include American Beauty in that list

eroswebmaster · 02-18-2004, 11:32 AM

anything Fellini has done.

123Jason · 02-18-2004, 11:36 AM

I also liked American Beauty....however...I couldn't stand
AI wish I would have walked out on that one. And I know a lot of people will disagree with me...but I think the American Pie movies...although funny...were way over-rated. Too much hype before-hand leads to a let down if you don't find it side-splitting. Also hated The Hulk.

axelcat · 02-18-2004, 11:38 AM

Dude American Beauty and vanilla sky are awsome movies take them off your list.

Now for my big fat greek wedding thats the one thats overrated

DrThorsen · 02-18-2004, 11:40 AM

Pirates of the Carribean. Depp was great, but no better than a Keith Richards interview and the rest of the movie was Disney-schlock.

mindoza · 02-18-2004, 11:40 AM

i am going to agree with jason on the whole American Pie thing...two others that nobody agrees with me are Silence of the Lamb and Titanic

I gotta agree with you about American Pie... It was like all the funny parts were in the commercials. Skip the movie watch the teasers~

dunefield · 02-18-2004, 11:44 AM

Most Over Rated Film...

Godzilla...
Pearl Harbour...
Independance Day
MIB 2

SykkBoy · 02-18-2004, 11:45 AM

American Beauty (sorry, I watch too many teen porn videos, so it didn't have the same effect on me ;-)) it wasn't a bad movie, just didn't live up to the hype for me
Titanic- how the fuck did this movie become the top grossing movie of all time? blech
Citizen Kane there, I fucking said it....I'm not a huge fan of this movie...I resepect it's place in movie history, but sorry, not even in my top 100
Psycho I realize this could help get my horror movie fan card taken away from me. Aswith Citizen Kane, I respect this movie's place in movie history, but it just wasn't "all that" for me...

the matrix

Pun · 02-18-2004, 11:49 AM

I'd say either of the Matrix sequels.

As someone said earlier about the American Pie series, when a movie is hyped up so long before release it's nearly impossible for the movie to meet the expectations.

Besides that, "A Beautiful Mind" did absolutely nothing for me and it was ranted and raved about... I'd call it garbage and highly overrated.

Shakespeare in Love, no contest

Roger · 02-18-2004, 11:51 AM

come on, American Beauty was a good one. I even bought it.
Lost in Translation is overrated.
Amélie Poulin is overrated.

strobi · 02-18-2004, 11:52 AM

Lord of the Rings! hands down! and starwars I

hova · 02-18-2004, 11:53 AM

Pearl Harbor and the two Matrix sequels and T3 was a huge disapointment

nofx · 02-18-2004, 11:58 AM

Titanic, you already knew the boat was going to sink in the end.

tayloryum · 02-18-2004, 05:51 PM

i thought "there's something about mary" was overrated

american beauty was a great movie, and "greek wedding" was not that funny at all.

Theo · 02-18-2004, 05:59 PM

Independance Day for sure one of them

webgurl · 02-18-2004, 06:00 PM

I didn't say they were bad movies, I said they were over rated movies.

Boondock Saints and Escape from New York, however, are bad.

Ic3m4nZ · 02-18-2004, 06:17 PM

Titanic , it's way overated and the Celine Dion songs in it sucks

ldinternet · 02-18-2004, 06:18 PM

Equinox, Boondock Saints was boring and stale.

I'd rather put a pencil up my nose and bang down on a table than endure that fucking shite again.

Hitchcock would have to be on that list. Several of his films aren't all that.

Okay, name some of your favourite films.

badmunchkin · 02-18-2004, 06:35 PM

What comes to mind are the last 2 movies I saw - Lost in Translation and Mystic River. Both are being nominated for and winning a bunch of awards - I liked the actors in both films - I shoulda liked 'em but they were both very disappointing.
