Seriously Overrated Stuff
chocobo:
Just about everything is overrated. From alcoholic beverages to your favorite website. Everything has it's fans that'll do their best to exaggerate the quality, content, etc... of everything.
However, a few things I find a little too overrated:
Twilight (too many fans of something that's literary content is garbage)
Lost (are they found yet? C'mon, too many people go overboard with lost)
Apple (any products ipod, macbook, etc..)
Saw movies (first one was alright. It was something a little different, but a contract for 8 movies!?!?)
Paranormal Activities (Blair Witch project volume 3. It was more laughable than scary.)
Michael Bay movies (Was that a blur??? KABOOOM, BAM, BANG, KERPOW!!!!)
Comic Book movies (As much as I love them, not every comic needs a movie let alone 3-5)
Trilogies (Some have been good, but more often than not, the first movie was great, second alright, and third was horrible.)
Also, on the subject of exams. If you have a decent teacher, their exams will cover the material learned in a new form. Sure you memorized what year the United States was founded, but can you discuss the events accurately that lead up to it happening? Sure, you read a book, but can you discuss the concepts behind the book, the themes, and why this book was so relevant to today as well as yesteryear? Exams shouldn't just be a test with multiple choice answers. It's foolish of a teacher to hand them out. All that shows is that you skimmed your textbook good enough to find the definitions of bolded words or ideas. So literary exams should make you go into detail about more than just the content of the book. Science exams should set up hypothetical situations and make you figure out the reasons why/how such situation is happening. Math exams should take the formula learned and present equations based around it. History exams should be more than memorizing dates and names, they should make you go into detail about how all these names and events came to be. Multiple choice is only the choice of a lazy teacher.
