The Dark Knight

Most overrated post-2000 and most overrated of the last decade. People were claiming it marked some great divide in filmmaking-- before TDK and after TDK. Stuff like Avatar had detractors and mockers from the start.

SouthernBlueBlood All-American

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.

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.

Inception

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

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

Gustav

4/17/18 1:09pm

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

Gustav

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

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
