Goonies--that remidns me... Willow! Willow was an awesome movie!
I probably would've liked Blade Runner, if it wasn't so gawduful slow.

George, amen to Dogma and Chasing Amy. Two great movies. Also, I forgot about UHF. Another film I thought of no one talks about, probably because it is so recent: One Hour Photo. It is out on DVD now and I have to get it. Honestly, one of the top 5 movies I have ever seen. See it now. Not as underrated as some of the others because everyone I know who has actually seen it praises it.

Star Wars Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace--- Okay i know what you are saying terrible movie.... but it was destined to suck, it is the only movie that didnt require too much fighting, it was a setup movie, but EPII is awsome, and EPIII will rock in the great battle deparment
There is so much to respond to in this thread. But for now I'm going to say that The Phantom Menace is one of the worst movies ever, and it grossed grossly, so it has to be labeled overrated.

UHF is one of my top 5 movies of all time (and High Fidelity isn't )
UHF rules.
Besides, what better way to say "I love you" than with the gift of a spatula?

Oh, and, I watched Kayla post that Titanic comment *live*, and she said "I bet people aren't going to get the sarcasm." I didn't believe her, but I was wrong. Titanic had the highest domestic product (unadjusted), won a few handfuls of awards, was talked about at school for weeks and weeks and weeks. That's why it's such a strong counterexample of an underrated movie.

Got that right. Ghostbusters and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were awesome, but the cartoons were MUCH better. I think FOX is trying to remake the ninja turtles. I'll have to see if its worth my time. As for most underrated movie: COOL RUNNINGS!!!! Wow that was one awesome movie. It was so hilarious. Im laughing right now remembering some of the great lines...

Give it up, it's bobsled time!
This is one of the greatest classics, but I think it gets a great deal of credit to match, at least among anyone with a soul. So I wouldn't call it most underrated, but what a great film.

How about A Goofy Movie? It is nearly pure genius, yet it is snuffed in the line of Disney classics. Great soundtrack, great characters, great plot, great attention to detail--the list goes on and on.
Check the map, Goof. This movie's underrated.

Clerks is excellent, that's my favorite Kevin Smith movie "I'm not even supposed to be here today!"
Lilo & Stitch, ya it's a Disney movie so it's automatically kinda hyped, but it disappeared, plus I'm sure a lot of you all never saw it as it is a Disney movie, but rent it and watch it, it's hilarious.
UHF
Fight Club is brilliant, just brilliant
Blade Runner
Clue

I got more still, but I will stop, all classics, if you haven't seen any of these, go get them!

LOTR Fellowship of the Ring. I don't think they hyped it a lot because they weren't sure if people were going to like it. Ask anybody who doesn't like the movie if they have read the books. Most haven't and wouldn't understand it anyway.

The Emperor's New Groove. Disney didnt promote it, yet it had true comedy that evolved beyond the Shrek fart jokes and had irony.

I must watch this soon. I have it in my home and I hear it's quite intelligently funny. I think I'll watch it tomorrow.

EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE! How could've I forgotten! Awesome and hilarious movie. Also, good to see someone else like Rocky Horror Picture Show. Creepy, but great.

Also, what about the entire Naked Gun series? Probably one of funniest series in cinema history.
