Overrated Something or Other

[wingchun100]

Here's a neat little topic. Pick something that you think is overrated. It could be a band, a book, a movie, a clothing line, a restaurant...whatever. And just name it. You don't have to go into why.

For me, it is a band: Green Day.

The Hunger Games. (Movie, 2nd and 3rd Books).

I'll address the movie. We have an extremely cliche set of characters, cliche scenes, cringe worthy romance, the lack of feeling enough emotion considering the intensity of the plot (Innocent, Helpless Children Dying. How bad must it be to not make me sad at that?) and the most stereotypical (and least terrifying) antagonist.

Next.

i read the books and gotta concur that book numbers 2 and 3 are just plain dire -- thought they were just too overrated and an ok read but sleepy -- bad books

i love the tracks by hardwell - the disc hardwell revealed is a favourite of mine

Kubotans. If you are going to actually go to the effort of carrying a weapon. Why would you muck around with that thing?

I just pick up a rock and I am going to do more damage.

Most magazines, how my younger sister would read this is beyond my understanding. All talk and opinions about celebrity lifestyle bs or some unnecessary product. Could be just my opinion but I prefer a little more realistic (i don't know these people, what they do isn't interesting)

Shurikens. Even in the hands of Ninjas.

The only ones I have ever read are Fangoria and the occasional issue of Entertainment Weekly.

I didn't mind the first season of Real World...when it seemed real. Once they figured out "fights=ratings," it has been fake ever since. And why is it the angriest roommate always has to be the black guy? I mean, I am white myself...but that still bugs me.

Yes I have never heard the term butt rock myself, and I don't know why it could be applied to hair metal...although I do agree a lot of it sucked. LOL
