I love the Harry Potter series (Movies and espeically the Books).
But I agree there are some fans that get way overhyped and are totally obsessed with HP. Like collect merchandise, dress like characters, research Harry Potter, get excited about a HP movie before the trailer comes out, Got on Harry Potter forums…
Hmmmm…that sounds familier? Kind of like a lot of people (including me) with Pixar,
heres the thing everyone has a immense love for something out there for example my dad is obsessed with cars my mother hates it while my mom is a collector of salt shakers that look like things i know he hates that one us here are in love with pixar hp fans may hate us because we love pixar so i say lets not knock on someone for what they love because we all love diffrent things as much as u may hate hp fans incredi girl they may hate you exactly the same and im not ragging on you im just saying lets not be haters everyone likes what they like whether it be good or bad.
The only films I think to be overrated are the awful Disney Channel (Un)Original Movies like High School Musical and Camp Rock, but you probably already know that by now. I’ve been known to rant about them on this site before, and other sites for that matter.
Well, yes, everything has fans. But HP and TL fans go and rub it in everyone’s face. We don’t hate people for not loving Pixar, we just wipe our shoes and move on. Fans of bigger movies(HP, TL) take it way too far. Keep your fandom top yourself; that’s what the internet is for.
That’s interesting, I am a fan of Harry Potter and I know lots of people are. I don’t go around rubbing it in everyone’s faces. The Harry Potter fanbase is HUGE and that’s a ridiculous generalzation to put on it. And Pixar fans aren’t innocent either…
Thanks. I hated High School Musical right from the moment I saw it advertised on TV.
As much as I like to admit I’m a fan of something, I wouldn’t just go around rubbing it in everyone’s face like you said. That’s just being a complete fanboy really. I mean, most people stereotype Jonas Brothers and Justin Bieber fans as completely obsessive people who can’t spell and will bash on anyone who doesn’t agree with what they think. Obviously not every one of them is like that. I simply fail to see why people like them so much, but if they like it, that’s their opinion. Just don’t turn into a fangirl about it.
Okay, okay, sorry. I just get very angry with people at school and try to vent here. Sorry. But seriously, certain things have way too many fans. And the ones who are really in-your-face do tend to be annoying.
The way i see it the hp fanbase is a little large considering that at least half have never read the books. Plus the movies screw the books over with graphics and lack of plot detail. So in comparison to all pixar films which aren’t based on books Harry Potter AND Twilight are overrated
Sorry if I offended you earlier, EJE. I just get so frustrated with people at school, and then forget everyone is not like them. Sorry.
Man, I personally like it, but I must say Alice in Wonderland. I mean, here everyone knows it’s not that great. I like the movie, and I can see that! I don’t see why all the kids around here think it’s all that.
I agree aswell gaga rose to stardom for no reason.I also feel the bieber is overrated…Im getting ready to hear 50 million fan girls scream at me and then locate where i live and murder me.
Yay, another new thread i can send my own opinions on again!
I have to agree with everybody who thinks Twilight is overrated, i just can’t stand all these TwiHard fans who actually brake up with their boyfriends/girlfriends to live out the magical, unreal dream of being with Edward Cullen, when he doesn’t even exist! Also, i’m starting to see an even worse trend of movies for this new decade, i mean, Cowboys and Aliens? Really? with Harrison Ford in it too? Why would they do that to his career! Super 8, not worth seeing, Fast Five, maybe, but i think the fast and the furious series should have ended with the fourth (or third?) one. Sucker Punch, maybe worth watching, seeing as it completely original and entirely action packed (although the robot in the poster background looks like a abridged version of a Big Daddy from Bioshock). I was really hoping for some good flicks this year, but now, hollywood’s just lost it’s touch it had on the public, they’ve been making dirt movies for dirt fans.
OMG i know when i saw the trailer for cowboys and aliens i can honestly say… It looked like a joke or like it was gonna be a car commercial or something.I first saw it during the superbowl everyone was laughing then when they saw it was an actual movie we laughed even harder.
Well, I don’t think we should bash movies that aren’t even out yet. But, from what I’ve read, I can see why you’re not excited. But maybe you’ll like them better when they come out.
