    Thumbs up avatar - james cameron

    Anyone seen this? Thoughts, opinions?

    Saw this yesterday. Lots of opinions on the story, it has been called a dances with wolves in space, also a "white guilt fantasy". No doubt you know the story already, it is the one that gets used in 50% of all sci-fi videos and games.

    the movie has been hyped for the 3d and special effects. well, I have to say that the hype does not do these justice. some movies like to show beautiful landscapes and vistas. much of this movie looks entirely like that. tons of visual details everywhere. pure amazement. see and enjoy.
    RIP Father.

    I saw the movie and it reminds me of the story of the American Indians. The effects were excellent and this movie will do fine and I believe most will enjoy it, but as far as the story goes, it's like every other Hollywood movie who can't seems to come up with new stories or ideas but still entertaining and fun to watch.

    I post about this movie coming up not long ago

    The movie I like to watch that is coming soon is Robin Hood with Russel Crowe and it looks interesting and most of all it was made by the same people who did Gladiator. I think this movie will have potential and do very will.

    I haven't seen it (yet), but there is ALOT of buzz about it all over the place. I keep hearing about it at work, friends, radio, just folks taking at restaurants. Seems like every late night show has people that aren't even in the movie plugging it. Seems like a must see.

    This was a pretty entertaining movie, the visuals and effects were top notch. I had heard this part and after watching it, it is true .... the plot seems like the writer is making a personal statement about his conceptions on what is happening in the Middle East.
