You know what I'm getting bored of? No. And I don't really want to guess. Oh, you answered your own question. Apparently I don't need to guess anymore then. I did answer your question. You asked two questions. I answered the one I felt most pertinent. I did not realize I was supposed to reply to every single comment made to me in your reply. I will keep that in mind next time.  Your previous three suggestions of "OVERSTATED, OverLIKED? Maybe OverWatched?" are all the same as overrated to me. How about "Movies you didn't like as much as everyone else - 2007"?  Your pointless circular arguments have totally convinced me of my intellectual fallacy. 300 is now the greatest film of all time. Citizen Kane, Goodfellas, Gone With the Wind, Godfather, and It's A Wonderful Life are all reduced to dust by its awesome power. And we can never use the term OVERRATED again because one guy said so! |

Beowulf.
Most of the reviews I've read on it(online and in newspapers) were at least favorable. I thought it was like watching someone play a shitty RPG for 2 hours. I don't understand why it wasn't Live-Action. I can't believe the same director who made "Back to the Future" and "Cast Away" made this!

Ehh, I didn't see many movies this year. I liked 300, but it wasn't a masterpiece. I go to movies to see violence, I'll read a book if I actually want to have something to think about.

300. After the first half hour it's the bloody same scene over and over.
Also, to the above, I don't think anyone liked PIrates 3.

I can't say whether 300 is overrated or not because i haven't seen it yet (Getting it for christmas) but i wanted to.
But out of what i've seen and from the reviews i say "Bayformers", I know i said "30 Days" before but after remembering what a s***fest "Bayformers" was i changed my mind.
Plus it starring Shia Labouf made things worse.

I thought so too, and people around The Crap thought I had stomped and destroyed their precious childhood toys or something. Including a little kid who tried to give me this wonderful counter-argument against me: "Oh you worry too much about style and substance." Eh? |

I have to go with 300 here too. While I liked it, it didn't do much for me.

Nevermind. This isn't going anywhere productive. I'm done. You're always a quitter. You are a moron. And, kids, "overhyped" is a subjective term. This is more along the lines of "movies that were hyped that you didn't like." I thought Transformers was awesome. Therefore, it would not be overhyped in my opinion. |

Since I can only go by movies I've seen or have been dragged to...
I have to go with TRANSFORMERS. That did not deserve the box office gross it got. I guess people were so mesmerized by the special effects they forgot about everything else.
