On a similar question, I must ask, are the Minions from Despicable Me overrated? I really can't decide. I didn't think they deserved their own movie (which did end up being a decent film), and they make up the majority of Despicable Me merchandise (have there been any toys of the girls?). It seems they were given most of the focus in promos for Despicable Me 2 (I didn't expect the girls to have a big part in the sequel, judging by how little screen time they got in the promos... I assumed Gru had to either rescue them or leave them behind for a mission).
Sometimes I wonder if The Muppets 2011 film is overrated. It's still a great movie, and I'm not tired of it, but it seems like a lot of my friends/acquaintances who aren't big fans of the Muppets really like that while being more-or-less unaware of the older works (I've occasionally talked about The Muppet Movie - the one from 1979 - to people who thought I was talking about this movie instead, I assume most of us have either encountered those people or expected similar confusion based on the titles).
