        Hope so, and that this isn’t the start of another “this was a movie of all time” type trend.

          I’m just tired of the trend of saying things are underrated, when they’re really not. The Big Short is a great movie and it is rated as a great movie. So it’s not underrated or overrated; it has a great rating and deservedly so.

            That’s fair. I know with video games it got to the point where people would make fun of people who would call games they liked “hidden gems”. Like, just because it’s not Pokemon or Call of Duty doesn’t mean it’s some niche game no one has played before…

      It’s always entertaining for me. I think that speaks more to the performances of Ryan Gosling, Steve Carrell, and Brad Pitt more than the movie itself. But, the way it presents the facts of the collapse is also a little unique and fun.
