One of the more perplexing cases of totally overblown hype recorded in human history would have to be Del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth. Best movie of 2006? No. Best foreign movie of 2006? Still no. Top 25 of 2006? Not even.
If you can watch that and The Lives of Others twice each (hell, see The Devil's Backbone too) and still say that Pan's Labyrinth is the superior movie, you're basically saying that Magic Johnson doesn't have HIV. You, are wrong.
