Personally I though Black Panther was really well done. I'm hoping the second one is a success even though Chadwick is gone :(

Arcane has to be the most recent over hyped movie I came across.

I agree with your choices! additionally, I think most romcoms are hugely overhyped. Especially the ones that have come out recently. They are definitely fun and entertaining but they follow the same premise and I've yet to come across a unique one.

I think Avatar was one over hyped movie. I found it a little over-the-top, and I'm not sure if all that blue color was dye that went on the actors, or just pure tech. For the sake of the actors, I hope it was all done using technology and that they didn't have to do all that acting with blue chemicals smeared on!

Really funny seeing some movies I hold so high in regard being criticized on this forum lol. I see your points and respect your opinion of course, I was just shocked! I will have to say I think Marvel is overhyped and that is my unpopular opinion. And the effect it has had on the industry is awful. Every movie has ginormous budgets and crazy editing and flashy CGI and shock factor twists and action for merchandise potential. But the heart of writing and artful cinematography feels lost. When I get together with my friends or family we always scramble to find a good new movie to watch these days.
