Also, I got to agree with Wall-E and Inception.

Scareface? 😛 But seriously, yeah, I think Scarface is kind of overrated. I mean, it was well done, I guess, but he was just so damn self-destructive that it was unpleasant to watch. No wonder the rappers like it, though. They all strive to be like him.

But you're crazy about The Matrix and Tarantino. I'll give you Death Proof and Jackie Brown, but Inglourious Basterds and Pulp Fiction are effing excellent.

all rappers want to be like scarface?WTF

STFU not even funny nor is that true

That "I'm Still Here" was total rubbish!

Sensitive rap fan is sensitive.

Don't worry, now that dubstep exists rap is only the second worst "musical" atrocity mankind has ever committed.

yeah, rap is bullshit. hip-hop on the other hand...

1. Fight Club: good movie but feels like it was written by a self-satisfied college freshman who just had his first class on Kierkegaard and vomited out everything he knew on existentialism.

2. Avatar: Is it just me or were the special effects actually kinda bad? And the motion-capture was nearly as good as LOTR even though it came years later.

3. Titanic: Fun movie but kinda stupid. And it's been a very long time since James Cameron has done something interesting.

4 Donnie Darko: You probably think this movie is "Deep" unless you matured past the age of 14.

5. "Inglourious Basterds" Self-conscious, self-indulgent, obvious, predictable, simple-minded, and boring. Christolph Walz was awesome though.

6. Anything by Stephen Daldry

7. The Godfather: Great movie. GREAT movie. Just not THE movie.

8. A Clockwork Orange: Kubrick's worst movie, but that admittedly isn't saying much.

9. The Coen Brothers: They are so goddamned talented, but just can't seem to get over how clever they are. They come across as nihilists. Zhey care about nossing lebovski!

10. Gladiator: Remember when Ridley Scott made interesting movies? You know, 30 years ago?

Casablanca has to be up there

1. Star Wars original trilogy.

2. Avatar

3. Titanic

4. The Dark Knight

5. Terminator 2

6. Blade Runner

7. Batman Begins

8. The Big Lebowski

9. Die Hard

Can't think of any others

I seriously suggest you read some of Chuck Palahniuk's other stories.
He's got over 15 novels to his name & Fight Club isn't even his best.

Hmmm.... I think I hate you.

I love both Batman movies, T2, Lebowski, and Die Hard.

Some of the most overrated Best Picture winners of the past few decades - Terms Of Endearment (1983), Out Of Africa (1985), A Beautiful Mind (2001), Crash (2005); none of them were worthy of that honour.

There's a good fine line between legitimately good and overrated that can sometimes be difficult to really pin down, but plenty of these mentioned films seem to fall under the former more-so than the latter. About time someone brought up Cameron's Avatar though, a.k.a. Pocahontas in space.

This thread has made me realize how insane many of you people are... lol.

The Matrix is just a large budget rip off of Dark City.

That is a ridiculous assertion. They have some similar themes, but The Matrix (Trilogy) is FAR more elaborate and intricate than Dark City (and besides, if I remember correctly, I believe they were filming about the same time). I like Dark City, but it's no Matrix.

And anybody who calls Die Hard overrated needs a severe beatin' 😆 I laugh at you for your silliness.
