I've gotta go with 'The Dark Knight Rises'. For the life of me I cannot see what all the fuss was about.......

I've only seen 2 on that list, and I didn't find Avengers or Ted to be overrated.

I'd have to agree with the Avengers. I liked it a lot, but it didn't really blow me away. Not trying to bash the film at all, but it wasn't anything remarkable - I wouldn't see it again or buy the bluray. And this is coming from a huge Firefly/Serenity fan who even watched...Dollhouse.

Out of those, Ted for sure.
I went in to it after hearing it was "one of the funniest movies in recent memory" and what I got was a two-hour Family Guy episode. I chuckled a couple of times, but the majority of it wasn't funny at all.

Bah, I don't even know what overrated means anymore. As Hit-Monkey said, nobody called The Avengers a film for the ages or anything close to that, so in what sense is it overrated? It was advertised as a fun superhero movie - did it deliver? Most people would say so, so where does the overrated-ness come from, exactly?

Deeming things "overrated" has become in itself, overrated. |

That site, and the 'writer' involved, just wants the 'hipster, everything cool and liked isnt so cool and liked' hit count.
It can piss off.

Whilst I agree "overrated" is the wrong word to use for The Avengers, I do have to wonder what people thought made it so much better than other fun Superhero movies. I thought it was a pretty par for the course superhero movie.

I thought it was a pretty par for the course superhero movie. I think the fact that it worked so well and everyone played off each other amazingly is a big reason. I mean, The Avengers wasn't exactly a complicated story but it was just so much fun to watch. |

I thought it was a pretty par for the course superhero movie. It was the first time that a bunch of heroes you'd gotten to see in their own films all came together in one movie. That's just really cool to see. |

Hmmm, I wonder who most of the people that said the Avengers was overrated might have been. Fans of another big comic book movie of the year, perhaps?

I haven't seen Avengers yet so I don't know if it deserves all the praise or not but I can see why some people consider it overrated when some others are calling it the greatest movie of 2012 or the greatest comic book/superhero movie of all time. |
