The Most Overrated Anything

[Fidelias]

Modern Warfare 2

Inglorious Bastards

Scary Movie series

probably others, but can't remember them right now

The Beatles - Yes, they were great, but they were not as great as people give them credit for being.

Valve - Gabe Newell could walk into an orphanage and murder every child in the place, and STILL 90% of the gaming community would try to defend him.

First-person shooters - Almost every one, IMHO, sucks.

 

[Novania]

Twilight.

This, its just a bunch of sparkly vampies with useless angst and drama doing around...

Problem Solved.

As the titles implies, just say something you think is overrated, be it game, movie, fish, planet, etc.

I, for one, think Johnny Cash is incredibly overrated. He doesn't so much sing as he does talk slowly.

I say the same thing abouut Frank Sinatra, although I do like one or two of his songs.

The Beatles - Yes, they were great, but they were not as great as people give them credit for being.

I agree with this though I don't even find them great at all. I just don't enjoy their music personally.

The Killing Joke: Most over-rated Joker story.

Naruto & Avatar: Most over-rated animated series ever.

1. The Killing Joke is awesome.

2. Naruto, I agree on.

3. Avatar is freaking awesome, it's one of only two shows I got upset about missing episdoes for; what do you hate so much about it?

I embrace the new Morrison Joker, & "Lovers & Madmen" is my favorite origin story. I still like TKJ for reading right before "Birds of Prey: Platinum Flats" though.

They're not really vampires. They're just blood sucking superhumans. Vampires are theatrical and have weaknesses.

 

[Cyrax987]

Apple iPad (Apple anything)

Halo (everything Halo related)

Modern Pop culture films,music, TV shows in general.. it all seems like mediocre nonsense.

Any movie with Seth Rogen, Michael Cera (I hate that guy),or Jona Hill

Avatar movie

Family Guy

Dane Cook

Pretty much all of this.

 

[Cyrax987]

The Rock Band and Guitar Hero series.

"I'M NOT TALENTED ENOUGH TO PLAY A REAL INSTRUMENT SO I'M GONNA JAM SONGS ON A FISHER-PRICE TOY GUITAR AND BRAG ABOUT IT ON THE INTERNET ALL DAY LONG!!!!!"

I don't do that

 

[RowdyRodimus]

Jack Kirby (I think Steve Ditko and Don Heck were better artists and John Romita, Sr. is the greatest of all time)

Bob Dylan- the only song of his I ever liked was only done well by Jimi Hendrix

Pro Football (American or international/soccer)

Sean Hannity- I'm a die hard Conservative and I can't stand his partisan bullshit

Shakespeares works- Really, really just hate them. He (if it was one person) had three plays and rewrote them countless times.

Pixar/Dreamworks/Any Computer Animated movie makers- I love good old fashioned pencil and ink cartoons and a lot of times you could do the same movie with real people and CGI for less money and still tell the same damn story (Incredibles, Up, etc..)

 

[Soviet Heavy]

People who say the only mature animated features come from Japan.

A lot of those movies are overrated.

 

[QuidProQuo]

ACDC, Nickelback, Modern Warfare 2, Stephen King novels (especially newer ones), Avatar, Any pop stars, Diets, Social Networking (TWITTER, I'm looking at you).

 

[The Amazing Tea Alligator]

I can understand Half-Life 2 being overrated, and perhaps portal... but tf2.

 

[LadyRhian]

Reality Television: This includes stuff like "Survivor", "American Idol", "Dancing With the Stars" and "Jon and Kate Plus Eight" and the new "Kate Plus Eight". I give less than a crap for all of it.

 

[MegaManOfNumbers]

Anime. I just don't understand how people can so rabidly love it. Not saying it's bad, but it's not god's gift to the internet, and saying it's vastly superior to other forms of animation makes me want to bash people over the head with the Disney/Pixar logo.

*slaps and runs away*

anyone who thinks anime is overrated.

Ouch. I stand by my argument. I feel it's over-rated, and the irritating fanbase (present company excluded) does nothing to help this.

 

[Bob the zombie]

The halo, call of duty, mass effect, and street fighter series. they are so hyped up that when they come out I can't really enjoy them.
