Movies you underestimated by their trailer

Unlike a lot of other people, I didn't care for the parody trailers for the new Muppet movie.
The movie itself, on the other hand, is a huge breath of fresh air after years of sticking the Muppets through insufferable garbage (I only needed to sit through 2 minutes of 'Muppets Wizard of Oz' before I couldn't take it any longer). The only movies that beat it are Henson's first two (I loved it even more than Muppets Take Manhattan).

Agreed. I wasn't thrilled with the idea of seeing it by the parody trailer I saw. I am now looking forward to it, but not because of the trailer.
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

The film is basically a much-needed "f**k you!" to cynicism, so you have to go into it with the right mindset. I'm glad I did.

Oh yeah, I remember the Muppets Wizard of Oz... and now I don't.  So forgettable that I don't remember the second I do.
