    at first I didn't care much for the trailer, but then I read an article on a moviesite about what makes cameron's films good. It's the story telling, not the FX, even with his most expensive films he still makes character driven movies. I agree with that, and Blue cat men or no blue cat men, it could be great flick.

    The newest Trailer makes it look a bit better, but the story is STILL weak and cliche'. I still think this movie will epically fail.

    Cameron was sued with the release of terminator and looks like he mights be sued again, for plagiarism

    Call Me Joe by Poul Anderson
    • The protagonist is paraplegic and gets around in a wheelchair
    • Bitter at his disability, he's only happy when he's telepathically controlling a artificial, lab-made creature which is used to explore Jupiter (which is harsh but livable)
    • This creature looks like Jupiter's native alien lifeforms, which are blue, cat-like and and use primitive weapons to fight off the planet's other predators
    • The protagonist -- in his "avatar," if you will -- meets some of the female aliens and begins to fall for aliens and their culture

    Okay let me start off by saying this...

    This movie makes any Special Effects prior and probably for years to come look absolutely obsolete, to the point of making past CGI completely laughable.

    Now, this film has more action than any film I've ever seen, just wave after wave, of action scenes, then some tiny bit of character building that is quickly subdued with more action of epic proportions. While watching this film, you wonder the whole time, just how much this thing really cost to make. You literally sit there, as the scenes get more and more extravagant, saying to yourself "Okay they have to be getting close to tapping out on the effects here" and nope, not even close, just when you think they can't push the effects to even better territory, they go above and beyond your expectations. The CGI blends in with the real time shots so realistic it's mind-numbing to watch.

    The 3-D is amazing, but you already know that and Cameron does a great job keeping the early 3-D in the "human" world very subdued (while still being great looking). Then when we head to Pandora, the holy fuck storm of 3-D smacks you dead in your senses. I'm talking stuff that looks like it's sitting on your friggin chair in the front of you, stuff that looks like it goes not just in front of your face, but past you and around you. It's quite a marvel to watch. I wouldn't watch this film under and sort of influence, you would be completely freakin' out

    This is the absolute best sounding film I've seen in the theaters as well, the rear pans are incredible and the imaging is a thing of amazement (granted I always sit in level 10, seat 17, exactly in the middle of the theater, yes I am anal).

    The acting for the most part is very good, a couple of misses here and there, but those that are vital to the story, deliver the goods.

    The plot is interesting, very much like the Native American tale, the story is prominent and the moral values of life/society become a bit forced, but it's what you are to expect in movies these days. While being classified as a Sci-Fi film, I'd call it more of an adventure film, an epic adventure/action film with Sci-Fi elements.

    Overall, this might be the best movie theater experience of my life. The effects will leave you staring in amazement, and every scene, you think to yourself that you are watching cinematic history. The movie feels epic, it looks epic and it sounds epic. You feel like it's bigger than a movie, and that it's like a 2 and a half hour long amusement ride to a beautifully constructed cinematic world of James Cameron.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, Avatar is what movies should be, a tour de force of amazement and an all-out effort from all involved in the making of the film to deliver the most entertaining film that's hit theaters in years or even decades.

    Great movie to watch. I really enjoyed it. You just cannot praise the 3D imaging enough. That said, the story is old. During most of the dialog, I kept thinking to myself "Hey look, its what we did to the native americans, in space, with smurfs on steroids rather than indians".

    Would I recommend it? Yes, if you can bypass the story and simply enjoy the view. Its like dating a complete moron with a great body. Its a nice ride, but not much to listen to.

    Watch it in theatres if you can get a 3D viewing. If you can't get a 3D screen, wait for the dvd.

    Not saying the story kills the viewing experience. Its worth a watch, no doubt. I just felt with all the new 3D and CGI tech going into this thing... a rehashed story felt out of place.

    The story is simple, but it's a story that works with this type of film, the effects and mind-blowing action will keep you far too occupied to worry about any story

    (Minor spoilers)

    I liked the flick, but I think the action is getting a bit overhyped. There's bits of action thrown in, but it really doesn't pick up until the last hour, and I expected more of a war between the two races, which also didn't really happen until towards the end and it wasn't all that great, so that was disappointing.

    Like many have said, the story is simple (almost too simple), but then we all didn't really see the flick for the story alone. The FX was great though, and so's the 3D. Sadly, I didn't get a lot of sleep prior, so I caught myself dozing off quite a few times throughout the 2nd half of the movie.

    I also didn't really like how those blue freaks were basically straight up Native Americans, from the stuff they wore to the typical Indian calls and noises they would make. The filmmakers couldn't come up with something more original or creative? In the end the movie is worth a watch on the FX alone, but don't buy into the action hype that a lot seem to be spewing.

    7/10
