*copypasta from the "Jack" online forums (www.comichammer.com/forums), so apologies if you already read this there... like anyone actually reads this crap anyway*
I just got back from seeing "Avater" tonight... quite honestly, as wary as I was going in (due largely in part to past disappointment due to over-hyping and wooden acting via CGI), I came out a believer.
BEST. FUCKING. MOVIE. I. HAVE. EVER. SEEN.
PERIOD.
Even the romantic scenes were enthralling. The action scenes... oh, sweet Jebus the action scenes...
*SPOILER ALERT!!!*
A knife fight between a ten foot tall cat-man and a mobile suit? Seriously, there is no part of that sentence that doesn't scream awesome.
[/SPOILER]
Quite honestly, this movie restored all the respect from me that James Cameron lost with "Titanic".
My only real complaints were that a few parts of the story were a bit predictable (as in I knew how things where going to turn out, just not how it was going to get there... kinda like a reverse M. Night Shamalan thing), and the 3-D was a bit blurry at times, which made some things hard to focus on. Then again, this is the first time I've seen a 3-D movie in the theater (last movie I saw in the theater was "Silent Hill", to give you an idea of how long it's been), so maybe they're all like that. Whatever.
That's my opinion, though... all I know is this: there haven't been a lot of movies I've seen that kept me excited an hour after seeing it, and I've never seen one in the theater that made me want to go back and see it again. I plan on seeing it again after next payday... hell, if it hadn't been the last showing I probably would have seen it again tonight.
Anyone who's waiting for it to come out on DVD or whatever, it's worth seeing in the theater if possible. It was definitely an experience worth leaving work early for. :D
