1. I liked it a lot...
It would have been awesome in 3D though. Much better, I'm sure.

5. It's fun. James Cameron plot, though.
He can't do subtle or nuanced bad guys; between Snidely Whiplash in Titanic and this guy, among others, Cameron may be Master of the Universe right now but he is also Master of the Obvious.

8. It reminded me a lot of a Disney plot, too.
Don't want to give anything away though. I really loved it. The images on Pandora are so beautiful.

6. I really liked it.
It didn't really drag at all, considering its length.

9. I did watch it all, the movie went fast.
I liked the ending.

A certain part is really sad.

Should have seen it at the movies on a really big screen.

13. glad you enjoyed it. A lot of people (obviously) did.
to me, it was Thomas Kincaide brought to life with the sermon intact.

different strokes :toast:

11. I enjoyed it. It was hellafun.
Granted, the plot is not profound or enlightening or anything...

But do you always "want" that from a movie?

12. Saw it just a few weeks ago at an 3D IMAX theater
I like it, but more of the technique than the storyline.

14. Avatar is coming back to theatres on August 27th.
3D and 3D IMAX theatres only, so if you want to see if on the big screen and in 3D, you'll have your chance at the end of next month.
