Avatar (2009 Film)

**Triumph** · 12-20-2009, 06:40 AM

In an effort to stimulate conversation: Anyone see Avatar yet? If so, thoughts?

My personal opinion, as copied straight from my Rotten Tomatoes review: Cameron creates a vibrant world that is spectacular to behold. The characters and story, however, are rather archetypal.

Avatar is hit or miss, really. And "Did You Hear About the Morgans?" was boring.

My dad and my sister want to see it but I'm very "meh" about it.

I just saw the movie. I loved the storyline, and personally I don't think the graphics we're all that they we're hyped up to be. I watched it in 3d and it would have been just as good in 2d. I wished they would have used more of the 3d in the movie. Also for you sc players, doesn't the humans reminds you a lot of the terran?xD They had marines banshees thors and firebreathers.

We must not have seen the same movie. It was a suburb technical feat. I bet their render farm could have kept a small state warm for the winter. The 3-D aspects were amazing, too. The glass effects were so real...I almost wanted to reach out at times. Too much 3-D could have been distracting, though. It's a tough line to walk. There were only a few "ZOMG, WE'RE USING 3D!!" moments, which is a good thing. Those tend to take you out of the movie. The usage really got me into the world in this case.
