Doesn't matter if there are a lot of haters (which is a side effect of great popularity), people are looking at sales figures when saying Transformers is overrated.
The movie raked in tons of cash so that's why people still say it's overrated, not because they think the entire population believes it's a good movie.
Kinda like how Call of Duty is hated everywhere on the internet, yet it's still acceptable to claim the series is overrated. Actually I like that analogy of Transformers to Call of Duty, they're both very similar.

Good point.
The best strategy in the game: go up stairs and pause balls.
Surprised to see Twilight here, I thought most people thought it was terrible. Anyway, I say Batman Begins/The Dark Knight and the Harry Potter movies.

New Moon. I only saw it cause there were apparently 18 mistakes continuity wise and stuff. Good times.

It's like, I just love a cowboy
You know
I'm just like, I just, I know, it's bad

Can I just like, hang off the back of your horse
And can you go a little faster?!
The Hangover: was just AWFUL...I felt like I was a watching a bunch of lame wannabe's trying to be 'mr funny man' During the movie i was thinking....When is this going to get funny? These guys are all noobs, and the gags were all lame and 'been there done that'. This comedy would of been funnier if I had seen it in the 90's. As it stands I maybe chuckled twice. Yet mainstream tweenagers ate this crap up at the theatres. Yes folks, this is the most overrated comedy of all time if you ask me. this garbage pales in comparison to the great comedies i just listed.
Yes. This a thousand times over.

Most popular things are overrated. The truly artistic achievements often do bad or so-so, or they get critical acclaim but not financial. I don't understand why Avatar, Harry Potter, Transformers, Pirates of the Caribbean, Shrek, Pixar, Judd Apatow, Kill Bill, or the Twilight movies are so popular. I think they're all overrated. Then again, I might not think that if I was younger, it might just be a generational thing. Then again, I didn't like most of what was popular in the 90's when I was a kid either. Titanic, The Phantom Menace, Toy Story, The Blair Witch Project, Scream, The Big Lebowski, Pulp Fiction, Dazed & Confused, Half Baked, or 90's Batman movies, so maybe it isn't generational. Who knows, everyone has different tastes. I rarely like what's mainstream. I like movies like Primer, The Comedy of Terrors, Harvey, M, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Grand Duel, and Duck You Sucker! most of which the average person probably wouldn't know of.
I didn't quite understand why Harry Potter 6 got so much hype after the failure of the 5th movie for me the 6th was a really poor film, the music was really poor, and i also read the book that was poor, for me it was really a heating to the 7th movie.
It is a really disappointment for me that Yates is going to instruct the two last films, why couldn't they continue with him that directed the 4th film that is the greatest Harry Potter movie of them all, there was blood, there was action and there was drama.
All of these things did the new fu***** director cut out in the 5th and 6th movie
The 5th Harry Potter book was so good and the movie could be better than the 4th but the director messed it so much up.
The Matrix. Worthless campy tripe, that movie is. I genuinely don't understand it. Laughably ridiculous stunts wrapped in a plot that strains for relevance. I just don't get it.

Pixar overrated? You're officially insane And Judd Apatow is a comedy god.
Pixar is definitely not overrated, but I can see the Judd Apatow argument. Now, the guy has made more classics than most comedians could ever dream of--Anchorman, Superbad, Taladega Nights, and for my money, Walk Hard: The Dewy Cox Story. But I'm not sold on the two "big ones" that people seem to gush about: 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up. Both were pretty unfunny, and relied on pretty thin gags for most of their raunchy, gross-out gags.

I hate to be off topic, but an absolutely great film that not many people have seen is Red Cliff. Its a recent japanese movie that wasn't in theaters and didn't have any hype, but it had great action sequences. It is a really long movie though, at a total of 5 hours. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3qIXQCHf94 . on subject, I don't think any of us twilight haters will understand why people like these sub-par novels and movies. I think that the movie 2012: supernova is a massive stinker. in fact, you should check it out to laugh at all the stupid, questionable decisions and ridiculous numbers of plot holes.

Most of those films you listed are simply popular, not necessarily overrated. There's a large difference between popularity and being overrated.
Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland is extremely overrated. A movie that has Johnny Depp on the cover, and "Tim Burton" in the title does not a legend make.
