Ehh, I didn't think it wasn't a good story. I watched the premiere here in Brazil, just fantastic.. Go for it! Special effects, characters, conflicts, everything, just so planned and well done, I expected it to be great, it wasn't. It was EXCEPTIONAL! Really a movie that you get involved in. Hey, there was even an applause after the movie ended.

I'm a bit worried if ReinBlue should have gone to 2h 40' movie. After all, he's not the youngest of us anymore.
Marco, for sure, is blue now... might take a while before he can report. heh

I can't see Avatar anytime soon, because I am currently neutropenic. Venturing into a crowded public theater would be very dangerous thing for me. So for the time being, I'll just listen to you all tell me how wonderful Avatar is with great envy.
I've noticed hollywood and the film industry are moving away from small budget niche productions for cinema and more towards high budget big spectaculars.
When the recession hit last year, the original plan by the studios was to make lots of small budget films, but that business model couldn't draw in enough ticket buying patrons, so the reverse is now true, in that we are going to see more big blockbuster type productions, probably one or two a year.
I'm personally waiting for James Cameron to do a remake or reinvention of the SciFi classic "Forbidden Planet", which was started as a project, I believe, two years ago.

I'm looking forward to the remake of 'Clash of the Titans'
It was one of my favourite movies when it came out and the remake is looking great.

Yes. Yes we DO, Naiko!
And HOLY SHITE TO CHICAGO is this ever a FANTASTIC 2.4 hours!
Triple (blue) Thumbs UP!
The RAW CREATIVITY using some STANDARD plot lines tangled up with some JAW-DROPPING new ideas just makes me want to use BLOCK CAPITALS MORE THAN I EVER HAVE!!!
translation: I liked it very much.

Very classic story. Sure the plot has been done (not too sure about the whole dances with wolves reference, don't remember any big corporations and I'm pretty sure the natives didn't win that one), but that's a pretty week criticism considering the magnitude of cg advances made in this movie. And I would have to say that the movie didn't just rely on its impressive $200 million budget. Or the facecl Cameron developed a special camera for shooting 3d, or the special headgear that was created for face capture. It was a believable plot, regardless of it having been pursued before. This technology (again, don't remember that from dances, though the native who plays the chief in avatar was in dances...) brings us one step closer to having limitless creativity in film. I'm exciting to see what is next.

Just saw it this evening, I liked it a lot. It was just well done, nothing really to complain about for now. Also, for those that don't know, it's not a 3D film like you've grown up with, it doesn't pop out of the screen at you, it's more like the screen is a window that you're looking through, everything in it has depth. Easier to watch than traditional 3D films, although it might take your eyeballs a few minutes to learn to focus properly. Once you do, it isn't hard to watch at all.

True - the 3D ADDED to the movie experience, instead of being a gimmick, and thus a distraction to the movie. Very breathtaking in spots - and only a few arrowheads poking out of the screen to make you duck!
It's just a shame that everyone dies at the end.
Oops!
Maybe I've said too much!!
