Weebs and koreaboos aren't that bad, or at least I haven't seen them do anything "wrong."
Same with teaboos.
The Emoji Movie was good.
Teen Titans Go! was good.

Teen Titans Go was crap and was a major disgrace to DC.

Emoji Movie was terrible.

Pixels is good, but not that good, still good though.

Ignoring the fanbases, Undertale and FNAF are still good and interesting games.

Here's a unpopular opinion of mine:

I actually think Mr.Satan from hit anime/manga, Dragon Ball Z, was the most hilarious character i ever seen as a kid

I think Disney declaring the Star Wars Expanded Universe non-canon was a wise move. It was so confusing IMO. And I think those are VERY overrated:
  • Live and Learn from SA2 (and the game itself).
  • Ocarina of Time.
  • Chrono Trigger.
  • Final Fantasy 7.
  • Frozen.
  • The entire Dragon Ball franchise.
  • Super Smash Bros. Melee.
The list could go, but I'm pointing the most egrerious examples IMO. Oh, and I like FF3 way more than FF6.

Ocarina of Time.
So you're saying that OOT wasn't a massive leap for the Zelda franchise and didn't achieve an unprecedented feeling of adventure and scale in video games? Or are you just saying you don't like it as much because it didn't age as well as some other games did?
Personal preference =/= overrated.

Don't get me wrong. I actually like the game, it was revolutionary for it's time and I think the 3DS remake tops the N64 original.

What I'm saying is that people workship the game. For example, it's common to say that you hate OOT on a Zelda forum, and then you get bombarded by offensive nicknames, f-bombs and the like (especially since there is the 3DS remake). Another example is when Undertale won the BEST. GAME. EVER. contest, surprassing Ocarina of Time. Those "Zelda elitists" then exploded and a short lived flame war occurred.

In my opinion, people must understand this is just a very good game, not exactly the holy grail of gaming.

Glad to know that. I even saw a video called "Melee is broken" and I can't really disagree.

OOT, while not being the holy grail of gaming, isn't all that overrated to me, maybe a little, but it is still a great game that shines with creativity and is what, introduced the Zelda universe in the 3D space at the time.

Melee to me, is overrated, but not very overrated. It's a game that is still praised by many for what it brought to the table after 64, despite being hated or not liked for some of it's problems like glitches.

Dragon Ball Z franchise, in my opinion, may be overrated but it is not that all overrated. It receives more popularity than other should be overrated series, like One Piece, and it is still going strong, today, releasing more content and media from the franchise that many fans still enjoy.

I will agree with the fact that the other games that you mentioned and Sonic Adventure 2, are very overrated.

I mean of course people get angry when someone hops along who wasn't there when OoT revolutionised the Zelda franchise into what it is today, saying that they "hate the game" when it's inarguable that it's a milestone in gaming history. The comment "I hate this game" is very unspecific and could refer to both dislike towards gamplay as well as history of a game. It's really on the person saying that to be more specific. As for the Undertale thing, I think that can be completely attributed to zeitgeist and a passionate Zelda fanbase. Undertale wouldn't win such a contest in 2018. It practically just came out when the contest happened, so it's fresh on everyone's mind. A certain bias there is inevitable, and getting angry about that makes sense if you ask me, regardless of which important game the fresh release surpassed.

You forgot to mention Mario Kart 64 (bury me I don't care)

Why no one notices Double Dash? I think it's the most underrated Mario Kart
Also I think Megaman ZX and ZXA are from the bests Megaman games I've played

Double Dash is one of the only three MK games I've played. Our class once won a football tournament between fifth and sixth graders and as a reward, our teacher brought a GameCube to the school and we spent a whole class playing MKDD. I got to play it as well, even though I didn't play football lol.
But let's get on topic again: DD is indeed very creative but barely noticed. I agree.

I honestly completely agree with you.
I do not get why Super Circuit is the "bad" Mario Kart title. Okay MKSC isn't all too great either but it's still enjoyable to an extent since the controls are responsive, just slippery. Super Circuit also looks better tbh despite being a weaker system.

Though I still dislike Super Mario Kart more than MK64.
The biggest flaw of MK64 is the rubberbanding. Like, I'm quite good at Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart DS (not a pro though) but 64 just has a fuckton of flaws. Besides rubberbanding, the controls are mediocre, the graphics are ugly, and the multiplayer is overrated. Also by far the 2nd worst rainbow road in the series. (only SNES Rainbow Road's ORIGINAL VERSION is worse)
