[Kratos]

So I finally saw Avatar today. Can't believe I left it this long. All I can say is wow
Great movie, very Beautiful, amazing soundtrack. I can't stop thinking about it, the last film to do this to me was LOTR.
Bravo James Cameron, Bravo.

Who does nowadays.

 

[CelticPredator]

Not James Cameron...that's for sure.

 

[ironwez20]

huh now why did i think you would show up ?

 

[Darren Carnall]

The script was original enough, it was the story that was familar. Albeit with a future slant.

I go to the thread, and reply to a post. Thats how a forum works.

Just like i'm going to reply to Darren too..


I bet it was(not sarcastic), but all the good stuff was cut out. Leaving the film feeling very cliche. And while it wasnt a HUGE deal....I dunno. Now that it has a chance to win the Oscars, I feel very different about it.

what was cut out? I only know what I saw in the theatre. I've not read any behind the scenes stories or anything. (I know how the technology was done... but nothing about the story)

I think he's talking about the extended alien sex scene

The script wasn't very original at all, either. For crissakes, he even went to the "We're not in Kansas anymore" well.

Avatar has a script so obvious my eight-year-old nephew was able to predict what would happen all the way through.

 

[Something Sexy]

Who gives a ____, movie was still badass.

I wanted to hear something like, "I love the smell of burnt Na'vi in the morning."
