And I Present the most Overrated Movie of all Time. The Avengers.

Holy Shlt this is getting really annoying.

Bad... Ohh wait, no plot.

Lame cheesy cliché dialogue.

Good acting down to downright terrible acting, Samuel J, Agent Maria.

Good pace.

Great Special effects.

Ok fine, it's a fun little summer action flick, it isn't the worse movie of all time but can we get back to reality, it's really not that great.

It's got an 8.8 on IMDB

It's in #29 in the IMDB top 250

I'm about to start killing kittens.

Floss it out of your vagina noob.

There's something that a lot of people like, but I don't?

OVERRATED!!!!!!!

Movies are for entertainment, The Avengers appeals to more people than Citizen Kane whether it's subjectively better or not. If I had to choose right now I'd rather watch The Avengers.

It's an insult to movie enthusiasts everywhere. Eddie-Vedder

I haven't seen it but I made alot of fanboys cry on the official marvel forums when I posted my plot prediction.

1.5 hours of the "heroes" trash talking and being smart asses with each other with the typical swarmy joss whedon dialogue. 20 min of the team suddenly getting along and defeating the big baddy.

Thats the movie in a nutshell.

Getting attention on the internet in three easy steps:

1: Take something popular and well liked.
2: Tell people it's sh*t and overrated.
3: Wait for guaranteed replies.

I understand that, but movies should also be reviewed by movie level standards and not appeal, I mean Twilight has bad scores, and while The Avengers isn't anywhere near Twilight bad it's way over scored. It's like the comic book nerds are breaking the IMBD scale. The site is usually pretty much spot on when it comes to reviews, this is the first time I've seen a movie so overrated, it's just like if the Twilight crowd started using IMDB and overrated it a ton and it made the top 250 list. Then you'd see my point!Eddie-Vedder

It felt like an 8.8 to me. Movies aren't reviewed like "X movie is better than y so it should be scored higher but X is worse than Z so it should be lower." The score doesn't reflect how the movie compares head to head with other movies.

Also, why the f*ck do you care so much about IMDB's top 250? That thing has always been a joke.drinkerofjuice

[QUOTE="drinkerofjuice"]Also, why the f*ck do you care so much about IMDB's top 250? That thing has always been a joke.Eddie-Vedder

Shawshank Redemption at #1, over Godfather 1 + 2? No.

Pulp Fiction over GBU and 12 Angry Men? No.

The Dark Knight, Empire Strikes Back and Fight Club over Seven Samurai? No.

Inception over Casablanca, Goodfellas, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Once Upon a Time in the West? F*ck. No.

In short, f*ck an IMDB top 250.

The film may have actually been good if it weren't for Joss Whedon being the director. Everything he's made I've found to be disappointing. I don't get why he's heralded within the movie industry.

Your being a moron, the list isn't an EXACT PERFECT RANKING, the point is all those movies are classic legendary films, the fact that The Avengers is mixed in with those movies you just listed is what should really annoy you. You listed some sick movies and then BAM HERP DERP THE AVENGERS.Eddie-Vedder

The Dark Knight is deeply flawed.

Shawshank Redemption is good, but not good enough to warrant a #1 spot.

And that's just the top 30, I can dig a little deeper and pull out more red flags if you'd like.

You're painting the top 250 list as some end all film list when it excludes a ton of classic and contemporary films. The ordering is just one of the issues here.

The Dark Knight is deeply flawed.

Care to elaborate? There is absolutely nothing wrong with this movie in my opinion. The benchmark for superhero movies.

I personally just can't stand the voice. I mean it baffles me that everyone listened to Bale and thought "yep that's good."

99% of critical acclaim was Heath Ledger's role as The Joker. Not much attention was called on Bale due to him returning from Batman Begins.

Actually, that may not be the exact reason, but that last part is me guessing. Also, 99% is an exaggeration.

That's the synopsis of the comic in a nutshell really. So the writer stayed true to the comic...bravo!

Then there are the characters who come off as so robotic and emotionless aside from the Joker. They feel more like tools or components needed to continue the story, instead of feeling like actual people. Then the exposition heavy script has spots of bad writing, most notably: "No more dead cops!"

The thing is that Nolan does a good job hiding those faults to the audience the first time through. But you can't help but notice these red flags the more you watch it.

All in all, it's deeply flawed. But Ledger's performance and a handful of good scenes elevate the film into more than watchable territory.

The Movie JUST came out.

Of course, people are going to be excited. There's going to be a lot of hype in the air.

It's kind of pointless to complain about it's attention during it's initial release. Complain about the 'top' lists when its hypes dies down and you may have a case, but right now you're just in the "I hate everything that's popular" camp.

How is not explaining every little detail a flaw? It's a superhero movie not a manual on the mastermind of a supervillain. People should learn that not everything has to be explained in movies or literature for it to make sense.kuraimen

It's true that not everything needs to be explained to make sense. But then there's the problem: It made no sense whatsoever.

Fight Club and Inception aren't good movies.
