The Most Overrated Films Ever

Matrix

Sorry but i never got it. Ok, so there are people always wearing sunglasses and so on, the word is at the edge of doom but most of them seem only to be interested to have matching outfits and posing as if they are having a photo shooting.

I mean, yeah sure.... "Oh my God, we are all gonna die because...." - "Thanks that you told me in time, so i have time to look for an new outfit i can wear for saving the world. Do you think the eyeglasses are matching with the shoes? And what do you think of my pose? Do you think it is better to safe the world while doing that pose or do you thing this is the better one?"

Or when it comes to their sanctuarium (However it was called.) so do they shoot everyone who is not between 18 and 30 years old and attractive or are they hidden somewhere in a cellar below?

And all that pseudophilosophy talk. Nietzsche and Kant would kill themselfs in shame, if they knew that someone would refer to the matrix dialogues as "deep psychology. O_o

So the first one i watched in television some years after, and it was an pretty normal actionfilm. So my friends were hyping around when the second film was released, and we watched it in cinema and it was soooo boring. There was a action szene without any sense, just to show some computer tricks, and it never ended end after 20 minutes when nothing else happened but special effects i slept away in the cinema. (no sarcasm)

So i tried it again when the second and the third film came into television but its just that boring, that senseless pseudopsychological talk, that useless posing and focusing on outfits, the long period when nothing happens and you have to wait until the story goes on, until they think that they have showed you enought special effects now....

I know, there are so many people who love it, and i really tried but i never managed to watch the second or third film until the end.

Most overrated movie EVER: AVATAR

Been there, done that. It was called Pocahontas, the Smurfs, and Fern Gully. Eat s**t, James Cameron.

Oh yeah, Matrix was pretty damn overrated too. Actually, you know what? most movies are overrated bs.

A Christmas Story...no wonder our nation's IQ has gone down... -.-

I also enjoyed Avatar a great deal, and while I can see how its plot harkens back to other movies, I feel as though the 'humans are the bad guys' in a sci-fi invasion story isn't done all that often, especially not in Hollywood blockbusters. I mean, I'm certain there have been many writers of sci-fi who have written stories where human beings travel to other planets to exploit and enslave the local people, but in pop culture, it's usually the aliens doing the invading. Avatar, to me, felt fresh for turning that upside down.
