Avatar

i went and saw Avatar on Sunday night...okay so there is so much hype about this movie - it being the most expensive movie to date, directed by James Cameron (director of Titanic, the most expensive movie previous to Avatar), nominated for four Golden Globes, 3D....blah blah blah. so yes...visually this movie is amazing! its not as clear as I thought it would be though, some scenese I feel the outter edges of the screen becoming a little blurry. I also feel like the neon EVERYTHING was a little ridiculous. BUT i don't feel a visually stimulating movie nessecarily means the movie was great. Story wise I thought it was a terrible movie. It is basically an updated Fern Gully/Pocahontas mash up, with neon and cat people! also this movie doesn't move along very quickly...they spend a lot of time explaining things that were already clearly known as it was inferred by characters reactions or past moods toward certain situations.

soooo i know im in the small minority that don't think this movie is stellar...and im okay with that. go see it though....its way cool...but sit next to the edge, it's long and you will need to take a bathroom break mid-movie!
