    Movie: Avatar

    Someone linked me to the trailer and I totally thought it would be for The Last Airbender, but it's actually a lot more interesting...

    I love James Cameron so much. I was skeptical about this movie and the hype surrounding it until I saw that trailer. This is gonna be cool as shit.

    I'm going opening day.

    This movie has been getting a ton of hype for years, mainly because of the new techniques supposedly James Cameron is employing in this movie. The same techniques that he hopes to apply to a movie for Battle Angel Alita (Gunnm), if he ever gets to it.

    Not digging the giraffe/fish people. Story looks interesting, if a bit chaotic. I'm not big on chaotic movies. I hate how people act in chaos.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I've been hearing about this movie for a few years now. I thought it would never get a release date. Some of the futuristic weaponry in that trailer made me think of Starship Troopers (highly underrated movie by the way).

    Damnit i want to see this SO BAD but, alas, i have no "movie-going" friends except one and he's off studying in Japan ;( ... guess i'll have to wait for a 1080p BluRay rip to hit the torrents.
    (no way I'm watching this in anything less than HD)

    I thought it was very good. The best movie since the Dark Knight in my opinion.

    Excellent movie. The world portrayed was so unique and I pretty much enjoyed most all of it.

    Second the Dark Knight comment. My only qualms were that the video quality wasnt anywhere near as sharp or bright as I could get at home.

    When the blurays made available, this movie is gonna glow!

    Did you guys watch it in 3D? In an IMAX?

    I watched it in 3D, I feel like it makes the colors deeper and more vibrant.

    I didn't get a chance to since the 3D showing was at a time when my friend had to work.

    I plan to go rewatch it again in 3D sometime next weekend.

    Watched this in imax 3d last night and it was amazing. Once you get past the fact you are watching blue aliens you dont even relize that everything on thier planet is animated, it is that real. If you don't see it in 3d you will be missing out one of the most exciting cinematic experiences of your life up to this point. It is that good visualy. The story to me was like dances with wolves lite. This is not a bad thing, just dont expect it to make you think too hard like the first matrix or any deep thinking movie. Overall I thought it was a good dtraight forward story. Don't expect lots of twists and turns thats not what this movie is about. It is however a great movie. I highly reccomend it and I will be going to see it again next week as well. May even see it a third time and I almost never rewatch movies at the theater. Thats how good it is.
