So LemonDrop's threads this one and this one as well as fact that I rarely watch movies at all, inspired me to creating this little monster. I'm sure lots of you know some movies hyped to the point where you really don't even want to watch it. What are those and why?

I'll just leave it here and blend in. Even though my posts will be stigmatized as OP's. But shush, maybe no-one will notice.

Almost all of the Marvel and DC movies. Some of them are probably bad, even for a fan, but it seems that Iron Man saga is beloved by many. I couldn't be less interested...
Pixar and Disney movies, animation movies in general. Toy Story, Nemo, Wall-e, Frozen, Lilo & Stitch, etc.

How do you know it's overrated if you've never seen it? ;)

it's just a prank bro lol seriously I've seen this like episodes and stuff like I know how it is. But haven't seen from the beggining to the very end. So I just hate this. I know it means a lot to people who actually fall in love with this movie but that doesn't just make sense. Maybe it's really marvelous but all these fans and stuff it's just overrated for anything.

I don't really love Star Wars, I just don't think you can say something that concrete about something without having experienced it properly. I would not call Twilight overrated, because I've never seen it properly (I've seen parts of it), but I can call Citizen Kane overrated because I've seen that.

Well you're relatively right mate. But you know there's 2 kind of not having seen or experienced like the one you don't know anything about it and like literally haven't seen it and you hate it or critize already and on the other hand there's this one you kinda know what it is and what it's about but you haven't ever sit there and watch the whole story minute to minute. If you see what I'm saying It's just kid stuff that's all.

(Almost) Anything hyped after 1960. Especially if it's made after 1990.

Just from the front page: Avatar, Mad Max, Minions, Matrix, Inception, anything Marvel...

With the exception of Titanic and the newest Star Wars, I guess. :D

Just don't get all hyped up. It's good movie if you like cyberpunk and neo-noir but apparently my expectations were too high.

I remember The Hunger Games had a massive amount of hype and build up before it came out.
I am definitely not the target demographic for that movie.

Too many to list.
However, I'd watch a lot of the movies together with someone.

Maybe. But that wouldn't work for horror movies - I'd need someone to sleep with me afterwards haha.

Read the book, skip the 2005 movie remake--and if you want to watch the best version of it, get the BBC miniseries one from 1981.

Citizen Kane.
I always saw it recommended in the same breath as Casablanca - a movie that bored me almost to death, so I never bothered to try it.

I know I should, but ehh... backlogs be huge.

I have yet to sit through the entirety of Miracle on 34th Street even though I would channel flip through it as a kid.

While I know the basics about them, I've never properly watched through a full Rocky film, Creed included.

I've hardly watched any movies made after... 2009'ish
Glaring example from before then is Grandma's Boy
everyone that I've talked to about it loves it and is baffled that I've not seen it; unsure how well it was received by the masses
