And I just didn't love it. I thought it was a good movie, the graphics were great, the story was MUCH better than the last Cameron hit I saw (Titanic, which I disliked immensly)...but I just kept waiting for them to burst out in song, singing "Circle of Life" from the Lion King. It was entertaining and I LIKED it, but I think the media, Dh and his brother had built it up so much that unless the film really was magical, it just wouldn't meet or exceed my expectations. We did splurge to see it in 3-D, which I suppose added a little "something" to it, but it wasn't necessary either.
The concept/idea of being able to go from living a human life to a different species was pretty kick hiney, though!! That idea, I did love. ![]()
Re: I went to see Avatar this weekend (no spoilers)
agreed with all points. we also saw it in 3D too and would recommend it just for the visual effects. It also reminded me a lot of the cartoon movie Ferngully.
