It's not bad

But do you remember how people lost their ability to reason rationally about it? It's not overrated because it was actually bad, but because of how hyperbolically it was feted.

POLL: Most overrated movies this decade:

SouthernBlueBlood All-American

4/17/18 12:48pm

Gravity.

JuicyJam

4/17/18 12:49pm

Bad but we’re people praising it as all time great? I don’t recall that

SouthernBlueBlood

4/17/18 12:51pm

Gravity is not a bad movie. Just stop it.

Indy Coug

4/17/18 12:52pm

I guess I can agree. I just hated it and I like the actors

SouthernBlueBlood

4/17/18 12:53pm

It’s really really dumb though

Dillinger

4/17/18 1:46pm

It won all sorts of awards, but I don't nearly pay attention enough to know

JuicyJam

4/17/18 12:55pm

Did you watch it at home? Because that movie is a simple roller coaster ride,

SandYFan

4/17/18 12:51pm

Can't remember if I saw it in IMAX. 3D for sure though.

JuicyJam

4/17/18 12:54pm

Hmm. Okay then.

SandYFan

4/17/18 1:04pm

It's also great at home with a large TV and 3D glasses

Indy Coug

4/17/18 12:54pm

Agreed but great visuals in IMAX 3D

Crush4

4/17/18 1:15pm

how did the Last Jedi not make this list

brightcoug

4/17/18 12:50pm

Because no one thinks it’s one of the greatest movies just popular and many liked it

SouthernBlueBlood

4/17/18 12:51pm

Dunkirk end of discussion.

You can't end the discussion just by saying end of discussion.

Technically I could. I have the ability to shut down a thread.

Yes he can, end of discussion.

Six Foot Seven

it is overrated but not like some other movies tho

karatekid

4/18/18 10:23am

Of those there I say La La Land, Avatar, Grand Budapest. In that order.

Geldir

4/17/18 12:51pm

Avatar is really up there for me as well

SouthernBlueBlood

4/17/18 12:52pm

Crash. It was a ripoff of Grand Canyon. LaLa Land is next.

Turnpike Lane

4/17/18 12:54pm

Interstellar, Arrival

Sea Chicken

4/17/18 12:54pm

absolutely

bluelands

4/17/18 1:01pm

Sounds like you have trouble with the modern concept of time

CallingDingo

4/17/18 1:01pm

The ending of Arrival **SPOILER**:

Sea Chicken

4/17/18 1:04pm

The whole love thing in interstellar was dumb

SactOWNit

4/17/18 1:06pm

Yeah but it didn’t come close to ruining the movie

Turnpike Lane

4/17/18 1:28pm

What I liked most about Arrival involved language more specifically.

Belboz

4/17/18 1:35pm

Inception

That's just crazy talk

mannheimadler

4/17/18 1:13pm

I just tried to pick the most popular movie.

RdF3

4/17/18 2:16pm

I wonder what is the most correctly rated movie of the 2010s.

Disco LaFleur

4/17/18 12:58pm

The Emoji Movie

The Dark Knight

Dark Knight is incredible.

SandYFan

4/17/18 1:05pm

Does that mean good or bad?

Sea Chicken

4/17/18 1:08pm

Good.

SandYFan

4/17/18 1:22pm

It's not bad

Batman Begins and The Dark Knight are easily the best superhero movies post-2000

RE: Batman Begins and The Dark Knight are easily the best superhero movies

Gustav

4/17/18 1:10pm

I would say both post and pre 2000, though Tim Burton's Batman was pretty good.

This post disqualifies you from commenting on movies.

Best villian in the history of movies, with room to spare. RIP

ALUF 1990

4/17/18 1:42pm

Memorable performance but lots of arguments for better villains

Gustav

4/17/18 2:23pm

Perhaps you are thinking of a different movie. Heath Ledger may

ALUF 1990

4/17/18 5:26pm

Shut. Your. Mouth.

crazY

4/17/18 5:47pm

Dark Knight was a good flick, but not an all-time great

Dissenter

4/18/18 11:09am

I'm going to go with either Star Wars or Avengers

Cougarclaw

4/17/18 1:21pm

Probably still Avatar, but Greatest Showman earned a spot on this list, IMO

coltonbyu

4/17/18 1:44pm

I read American Sniper first and it might be the worst movie done after the book

trom2foot3

4/17/18 1:55pm

LOL.

RockyBalboa

4/17/18 2:14pm

I admit, I really loved the book and that may be the cause for the disappointmen

trom2foot3

4/17/18 2:25pm

Crash is an overated, manipulative piece of garbage

RockyBalboa

4/17/18 2:12pm

From this list, I vote Grand Budapest. But only b/c Wes Anderson is so much

I've never felt the desire to see Avatar again. I've seen La La land and enjoyed

buckeyecougarguy

The clear answer is Mad Max: Fury Road.

I don't know how most movies get anybody to watch after the first wave of people
