You say that like it’s unlikely.
What are you talking about, Brad Pitt is a great actor.
AVATAR 10/10
I agree. There are plenty of movies I really enjoyed him in.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Fight Club, 12 Monkeys, Snatch, Se7en, Burn After Reading (He was fucking hilarious in that movie) and Inglorious Bastards. I can’t say that for much actors I’ll tell you that.
This’ll sound like a massive troll attempt, but this is my serious and honest score for Avatar.
Visuals: 8/10 – Nice CGI, but the design just gets boring and repetitive fast.
Story: 3/10 – meh, not really original and t was pretty much just a story built around the following point:
Cameron’s bullshit ethics shoved down my throat: 0/10 – Ye…
Total: 11/30
Calling the theme of the movie a bunch of bullshit ethics that were shoved onto you is kind of stupid. Every movie, song, and book has some theme that is shoved in your face. And that’s kind of the point.
The story was kind of simplistic, but it was a break to see something simple for once instead of a head scratching plot in which the writers through in twists for the lulz.
Well, when I watch a movie like Inglorious Basterds or Boondock Saints, there isn’t a sign of cultural criticism, no call for global action, no “shit, mankind sucks”. They’re good movies, decent stories and great entertainment.
When I left the cinema after Avatar, I felt “WHOA STUNNING” and “WTF was that shit?”.
Did you expect anything else after the countless stories you’ve heard about how it has a bad story?
Yes, it’s story is unoriginal and cliche filled, but it works for the movie.
Incredibly complex and intruiging plots just don’t work for epic films like that.
I know of no movie on a scale like that which has a great story. They just serve their purpose.
Movies like Avatar aren’t made to deliver incredible dialogue and such. They’re made to entertain. And that’s exactly what it does.
It was entertaining, but that didn’t help my sore throat afterwards.
I’m sorry you had to sit through a movie which championed a set of values.
I’m interested in seeing Antichrist also but from what I’ve read about it I’m kind of hesitant. It sounds disgusting.
Because peace is gay. :retard:
There’s no movies out that I really want to see right now. I’m waiting on Alice in Wonderland, though. Knowing Tim Burton, I’m sure that there’ll be elements reminiscent of American McGee’s Alice…which would be awesome.
interesting fact about American McGee; He has the worst name in the world. also They habve been tryin to make an actual movie of that game for years and it never seemed 2 pan out.
i will fight anyone who hurries to point out the irony of me saying soemone else has the worst name anywhere
Nah, the music producer from Fairly Odd Parents is called ‘Guy Moon’.
I mean. You might aswell be called Microwave Speakerset.
(Oh, and if you mock me for watching Fairly Odd Parents: Shut the fuck up, that show is awesome and you know it.)
Recently it’s been crap though. I do like a bunch of the older episodes though. And this is the worst name in the world.
Avatar visuals 8/10? Really? …
Holy crap: Ironically, if you hadn’t quoted that sentence, I would have never seen it.
I thought Avatar was very impressive visually, available in 3D nonetheless. Special effects have reached their peak - - now all we get to do is make it render faster. And the 21st century has lacked movies tackling simple plots elegantly… I’m glad that Cameron guy I hear so much about had the balls to not convolute it.
My friends and I made the observation that American film themes follow the standing president. It was certainly an Obama-era movie. Back in the Bush years, the best stuff coming out was more along the lines of 300.
And admit it, you swoon over my serenading syntax™.
Lookin back i think my fav film i saw in 2009 was like fantastic mr fox. im a child. also like the only thing that wasnt fuckin scifi. doublechild
Still upset Moon didn’t win any awards. I thought Moon was a better Sci-Fi film than avatar, and deserved more.
