That movie was pure mindfuck. I liked it, and not just because of that kiss between the two guys in the rain at the end.Lord Pounder wrote:American Beauty. Kevin Spacey is a fantastic actor but the whole movie left me kinda bummed. On the lighter note we did get to see Mena Suvari and Thora Birch showing tit, but or such a suposedly deep movie it wasn't.
Actually the christian idea of the hell underworld and monsters and stuff is hellenised, from the greek concept of Hades and his realm.Tsyroc wrote: I also had a problem with the "Unleash Hell" line.Not only did it seem contrived I also had a problem with a Roman using it considering the time frame.
Nah, fight club is great, you heretic.I think Fight Club is overrated, myself. But probably not the most overrated movie ever.
So? The romans didn't actually call it "hell" did they? The greeks (who the romans ripped their entire religion off and just changed the names) called it "tartarus""Rye wrote:Actually the christian idea of the hell underworld and monsters and stuff is hellenised, from the greek concept of Hades and his realm.Tsyroc wrote: I also had a problem with the "Unleash Hell" line.

Private Lion? *mew*Personally i thought Saving Private Lion was overrated, i didn't actually care about what was happening to the people after the beach storming.

Theoretically, if a good movie has an enourmous amount of hype surrounding it that makes it look like the best movie ever, wouldn't it be considered overrated?Nah, fight club is great, you heretic.
No, only over-hyped if it didn't live up to the hype.Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi wrote:Theoretically, if a good movie has an enourmous amount of hype surrounding it that makes it look like the best movie ever, wouldn't it be considered overrated?Nah, fight club is great, you heretic.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is perhaps the first movie that was subjected to a MSTing (long before there was even a MST). The movie itself sucks, but the audience participation is a blast.Durran Korr wrote:The Rocky Horror Picture Show. What is this movie's appeal?
Hi Ryan *kiss*Rye wrote:private lion is an Adam and Joe Toy story reference. I was tempted to say either that or "Shaving Ryan's Privates" but Ryan is my name, so i didn't.

Personally I really liked Titanic. An in person I have only met a handful who didn't. It's only on boards such as this that I meet people who actually hate it.Ghost Rider wrote:True, many movies are overhyped.
I view Overrated as some movie, many people love and praise to no end as if it's the greatest piece that genre has ever done...but when viewed or read it's at best mediocre.
For me...some overrated pieces are Titanic(sorry the movie is regarded as some fantastic love story...ugh) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon(shyeah greatest foriegn film)
That is such a hateful thing to say about the most enjoyable musical of all time.HemlockGrey wrote:Those who have criticized Gladiator, the Godfather, and Tarantino movies, you will shortly be visited by a lone vengeful Sicilian mobster who will proceed to murder you all in a horrible bloodbath. You knew the risks you were taking.
Most overrated movie of all time? Grease. My fury towards this movie cannot be expressed through mere words.
I thought Deep Impact was lame. The movie was too focued on a pair of dog-faced kids going through the motions of a romance and the unrealistic family life of a newscaster. The best actors in the movie, Morgan Freeman and Robert Duvall, were relegated to "supporting actor" status.Warspite wrote:Aside from Titanic, Pearl harbour and Citizen Kane, I would like to add Armagedon, I haven't been abble to see this movie in one entire sitting, Deep Impact was much better IMO.
I agree, but in general the story, along with the more down to earth acting was much better. (And why do these two movies need to have a "need of the many outweigh the need of the few" kind of crap? Can't they blow up a fucking rock without comminting suicide? Sheesh!)Kuja wrote: I thought Deep Impact was lame.

It is not enjoyable. It is a worthless, despicable lump of trash and assorted waste that has somehow garnered the status of 'classic'. It is possibly the second-worst John Travolta movie ever made.That is such a hateful thing to say about the most enjoyable musical of all time.
