Let's see them!

I'll start:

1. Friends

2. Twilight

3. Titanic (Yes, I love the movie, but yeesh.)

4. The Scream Movies

5. 24

6. American Idol

7. Any and all reality shows that VH1 puts out

8. ...? Anyone care to add anything?

I guess I don't understand the concept of this thread. How can something be overrated? The people that like it, like it. The people that don't like it, don't like it.

But if you don't like Scream, then you don't understand the genius of it

As in people calling it a masterpiece when it's really just the latest flash in the pan.

What makes a masterpiece a masterpiece if not collective subjective opinion?

Instead of answering your question, I will offer a refutation by example.

there is so much more than collective social opinion, because there is a multimedia entertainment industry that controls the flow of information in order to influence and persuade/dissuade public opinion, it actually puts pressure on people to keep up with the jones's and chose to have whatever taste is currently popular.

Here are some more over rated things:

"The Secret"
Ed Hardy shirts
miley cyrus or hannah montana
american apparel
Joel Olsteen
Deepak Chopra
