Every movie on that list has some creative artistic merit.
Except Boyhood

Blade Runner, Boyhood, Avatar and the Dark Knight currently tied for first

AVATAR

Go ahead, abatap wannabes. Post your copypasta. It won't change the fact Avatar is SHIT.

Modern movies are far more overrated desu opsama
>>
boyhood bout to sweep this series
>>
Inception in 1st place out of nowhere, this is better than the Kentucky Derby folks, my money's still on Boyhood
>>
From best to worst:

Blade Runner > The Dark Knight > The Usual Suspects > The Departed > It's a Wonderful Life > Inception > Napoleon Dynamite > Boyhood > Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

Although Episode III is far more entertaining than Boyhood. I would say Boyhood is the most overrated flick on that list.
>>
>>82543125
I'm with you, Boyhood will win.
>>
>no forrest gump
>no skyfall
>no crash
>no million dollar baby
>no E.T.
>>
>>82543180
>crash
Does anyone actually rate that film highly? It got good reviews when it came out and won best picture but after it won best picture it received immense backlash and it seems like that backlash never went away. Whenever someone wants to prove the Oscars are irrelevant they point to Crash winning best picture.

Maybe I would swap around The Usual Suspects and The Departed but I stand by ranking The Dark Knight that highly. It's one of the few capeshit movies that's actually pretty good.

It's only overrated by faggots that shitpost on here. Critics ripped it apart and the general public didn't like it very much.

that is quite a reddit and badly thought through list itself, you underaged fagglet.

what would your list have been then faggot
>>
>>82543292
It didn't make any fucking sense to me when I watched it. Wasn't the entire point of the movie for the villain to kill anyone that knew what he looked like before he went into hiding? He killed like fifty fucking people so no one knew what he looked like, but then exposes himself to the police for hours and they know what he looks like.

If anything that film is underrated. It's a fucking great film that no one ever talks about.
>>no Kingdom of Heaven
I think you've spent too much time on /tv/. It's highly rated on here but it doesn't get a lot of attention outside of here.
>>
depends on what ratings we count

obviously if IMDB is anything to go by half of the films in that top 20 aren't even that good

It's Blade Runner, but all the BR retards will flood your poll with random answers just so BR doesn't finish 1st.

>>82542455
Godfather

Seconded. Even the visuals are not that great.

I guess you just didn't understand it
>>
>>82543415

OP here, most of those aren't rated highly enough to be the "most overrated," also PTA and Scorsese own your fucking life

I forgot about Barry Lyndon though, but I've literally never seen anyone on /tv/ mention it so I didn't include it, it is one of the most overrated ever though, also I liked Pi a lot and haven't seen Babadook or La La Land yet

fuck those IMDB tards in the ass

Call me a pleb or whatever, but my vote would go to The Godfather or Apocalypse Now
>>
>>82543140
Fuck, just realized I forgot to rank Avatar. I would place it near the bottom.
>>
>>82543643
if anything it's underrated because of the rise in autistic plebs calling it overrated because it isn't The Godfather
>>
ABATAP takes the lead
>>
>no shawshank redemption
>>
>>82543707
It seems like IMDb is the only place that ranks it so highly. It got great reviews from critics but I never see people say "OMG ONE OF THE BEST FILMS EVER!!!" It's weird.
>>
>>82543680
Someone's got himself a Scarface poster in his college dorm and thought it made him hardcore.
>>
Episode 3. It's considered the best prequel, which I'm fine with. The problem is that it's also considered "the only good prequel", which is wrong, because they're all bad. It's also the only specifically "bad" movie in this list except for maybe Boyhood and Avatar.
>>
is avatar even "overrated"? isn't it just popular? it's not like it won the palme d'or or anything, it just made a lot of money, so does transformers, no one would ever say transformers is "overrated," everyone already knows it's retarded
>>
>>82543180
>>82543502
What's wrong with forrest gump though ? There are far worse movies, and if you're not autistic you can easily see why it was a huge success.
>>
>>82543757

OP here, Revenge of the Sith is the worst Star Wars movie full stop, don't @ me
>>
>>82543755
>I disagree with you therefore you own a movie poster

can't argue with that logic
>>
wtf avatar? you haters are just mad jelly

>What's wrong with forrest gump though ? There are far worse movies, and if you're not autistic you can easily see why it was a huge success.

>>82543773
I wouldn't call it overrated. You don't hear people still talking about how the movie was incredible. I think everyone knows it made a shit ton of money because it was beautiful visually and was the main movie that came out during the 3D fad.
>>
>>82543806
I'd say second worst, but I legitimately think Attack of the Clones is one of the single worst blockbusters ever made, ignoring the fact it's from the Star Wars franchise.
>>
did someone link to this poll from an anti-avatar thread or something lol, how did the votes go up this fast
>>
>>82543839
I didn't like the movie because everyone thinks it's a happy ending, but it was literally an AIDs infested junkie raping a retarded man and leaving him with the kid.
>>
dude it's overrated because I said so lmao
>>
>>82543321
Actually everyone loved it

nu /tv/ was a mistake

the only overrated films on the list I would say are boyhood, avatar, the usual suspects, and maybe the dark knight.

What a fucking entry level "I have only seen 100 movies in my life" list.

Try

>Tree of Life
>Slumdog Millionaire
>Mullholland Drive
>Persona
>Interstellar
>Everything PTA
>Everything Villeneuve
>Everything Peckinpah

Ok I'm getting a bit hyperbolic but everything on that list is decent and well made.

Pick one. It's largely considered to be qbricks least good offering, but you don't know that because all you see are the cult following fanboys online.

they are obviously all flooding the poll with avatar votes. it's a conspiracy i tell you

>>82542455
The Tree of Life
>>
>>82544180
I did. Have you seen it? Dakota Johnson had that "I don't know what " which makes you want to jump small animals or women.
>>
The Departed.
It's enjoyable, but at the end of the day it's still an obnoxious remake of a okay Chink thriller, done shot-for shot
>>
>>82544811
Departed is way better than Infernal Affairs
>>
>>82542455

Add Big Lebowski and I'll vote
>>
>>82545081
Eh, it lack the intensity of the original film, plus it didn't have that shitty love triangle subplot. Both movies have it's strengths and weaknesses.
>>
>>82545197
I think it's more that Infernal Affairs was mediocre at best while Departed is a middle of the pack Scorsese film which still puts it miles ahead of some cheesy Chinese cop flick

I did actually see it in theaters with someone from Hong Kong and he realized it was a remake right before Leo was shot in the elevator, which I thought was funny.
>>
>>82545081
Quantify "way better"
>>
>>82545283
I just didn't think Infernal Affairs was that good
