Underrated

Its a shame when things are underrated. I always hear people talking about the overrated things, but never mention the underrated. Its probably because things that are overrated are well known to the public, but that same public does not know there is a helpless product that fits their expectations waiting to be discovered. Although it does not even have to be a product; some people might consider nature to be underrated. In some cases it makes perfect sense. For example, I believe Hulu.com is overrated, but the problem is that all other websites that are better are illegal, such as http://www.free-tv-video-online.info/ (do not go there because it is illegal; I only posted the link as an example... *wink*). Also, there are a lot of films that deserve more respect than they received including cult films and regular films. I understand why cult films are underrated, but I believe that the only reason regular films are underrated is because they require a higher level of mentality. For example, people might disagree with me on this but I believe that The Matrix trilogy should have gotten twenty times the number of views it actually did. Now-a-days when people speak about classics the only movie that comes up is Star Wars, and when you do hear people talk about the Matrix they don't talk about its idea, theme, or story line; they talk about that one scene where that one guy dodged some bullets. Also, this has nothing to do with this blog post, but I would rather mention it now than create a whole post about it. Why is it that when you weigh yourself at Publix, it says you weigh about two pounds less than you actually do? Is it because they want you to think you've lost weight, so that you buy more food?

  1. The Matrix movies were great! Yea most of the time when people talk about the movie, it relates to the dodging the bullets. I bet if most people watch the movie again they would realize that the story to the movie is completely amazing. For the Publix thing, I have a story that i just made up. Some random person weighs them self before they go to Publix. Then they go around and shop at Publix. On their way out they weigh them self before they leave. They have lost a few pounds OMG! They will enjoy coming to Publix more often and lose weight. The end!!!! P.S. they want our moneys!!!!!
