Most Overrated Movie Options

[*Kathleen*]

What would you say would be the most overrated movie ever?

I can't believe Lord of the Rings was mentioned in this topic. If Star Wars was mentioned, I probably would've had to hurt someone.

^haha.

4. Star Wars. Overrated as an original trilogy, but never to a disgusting degree. With the presence of the new trilogy, which was a heaping pile of shit, it has moved its way into the ranks of the most overrated. Even thinking that the new trilogy is "ok" is a gross misrepresentation of how actually awful these new movies are.

i must disagree.

i must disagree.

Sure, you can disagree all you want. But, why?
The old trilogy was an epic of technological advancements in film. For that reason, and near that reason alone, it became quite the phenomena. The plot was unoriginal, and covered little ground. Characters were enjoyable, but were hurt by a lack of development, bad direction, no real performances, and some terrible written dialouge. To say the least, it was cheesy. And, for being an Action/Adventure Sci-fi epic, it never really thrilled me. In fact, I always prefered the comedic side of the trilogy. Still Harrison Ford is the only thing I will revisit the original trilogy for. That's it. Han Solo is a bad ass.

I would say that the original trilogy is way overrated. But, that's because it has a certain charm to it. It isn't really that fantastic of a film, but even I would overrate it. I would give it higher marks just because of its enormous cult status and charm. However, I would never pay the same respects to the shit box of aborted fetuses that was the new trilogy.

These new films were a disgusting mess. Totally lacking in the charm that was present in the original trilogy. Worse characters, worse direction, over acting. I felt ill leaving the theater they were so bad. But, people still praised them. Left, right, up, and down. The problem is, we aren't playing the same game here. When the original trilogy was made it was a huge step forward in technological advancements. The effects were awe inspiting in 1977. It amazed audiences all around the world. It was also a lower budget, per-hollywood-god production. The new trilogy losses the charm, and does worse what the original could barely do in the realm of sophisticated story telling. The film is pedestrian and simple, because of this it can reach a wide audience. That's why it is such a successful franchise, and also why it is such an overrated series of films.

But, as I had said before, if it wasn't for the new trilogy, Star Wars would have never made this list. So, thank George Lucas for being a money grabbing little-talent douche bag.
