The Golden Globes are usually a preview of what goes down at the Oscars, so next month the results may be the same. Impressive.
Avatar and James Cameron win

I just saw it. Its another Titanic. Once its out of 3d it has hit its sell by date. Banal script, mediocre actors. It was entertaining because of the technical shit, but it did not amaze me. Personally, I think three hundred thousand dollar movies with great scripts would have advanced film making a lot more.
This will be a dust collector by next year.
What I do admire James Cameron for, is his business capabilities. He is the Billy Mays of Hollywood.Comment

Dust Collector? Hardly. The script was amazing. It wasn't original. It wasn't Shawshank. It wasn't Green Mile. However, it was unbelievable in its own right and with the graphics included, it made for an unforgettable movie. That's just my opinion. As far as a dust collector? Look for it to be the biggest DVD seller of all time, and rightfully so.I just saw it. Its another Titanic. Once its out of 3d it has hit its sell by date. Banal script, mediocre actors.

It was enjoyable in 3D though. Everyone saw Titanic 10x when it was popular, but I haven't heard anyone watching it since then.Comment

Because Titanic was tailored for prepubescent, socially inept females. This movie is for everybody.You're probably right.

Not only did Avatar make gobs of money, it also broke new technical / cinematic ground. He deserves every ounce of that award
Pocahontas rehash story notwithstanding.

Are you sure it's pocahontas? Is it conceivable that Cameron just created a story that's been used before? It's hard to believe that the greatest filmmaker in history has to resort to rehashing plots.Greed is Good

I just watched it today. It was awesome! The colors were awesome and the story was great.Comment

It might be a dvd success at the beginning...prolly not. Revisit this thread in a year. It is a dust collector. Its not a good movie. Titanic won all kinds of awards and it was a total crap movie. Same thing applies. Cameron has an amazing talent to bamboozle critics and audiences alike. But like I said, he is one of the greatest pitchmen of all time and for that he gets a lot of respect. But dude....the script was shit...just replace Jake with Jack and a planet for a ship and a battle for an iceberg and Leonardo di Capocolo with some guy who sounds like he was singin' doo wap on a street corner last week and whaddaya got??? Aavatanic....Dust Collector? Hardly. The script was amazing. It wasn't original. It wasn't Shawshank. It wasn't Green Mile. However, it was unbelievable in its own right and with the graphics included, it made for an unforgettable movie. That's just my opinion. As far as a dust collector? Look for it to be the biggest DVD seller of all time, and rightfully so.
I know I am swimming upstream on this one, but I laughed at the dialogue, just like I did in Titanic, and all those critics that were kiss Cameron's ass went really silent in the first year after its premiere. King Kong was more ground breaking than this piece of cinema history...historical for making money and some video game effects....Comment

King Kong was shit? In 1933 it was scarey and huge. Ground breaking film making. Your opinion kinda suffers when you say something like that.
I bet you thought Orson Wells was a shit director and Citizen Kane was a movie of the week.Comment

Titanic and Terminator 2 were awesome movies. Avatar more or less sucked. It was cool watching it in Real 3D once, but other than that, the plot was weak and predictable. The characters were all elementary and superficial. Overall, not a very stimulating movie.Comment

Just got home from watching it. Epic movie, very good in all aspects.Comment

I need to go watch it again.
This will be a movie they'll keep putting back in theatres for showings in 3D.What name is pr0 / Untouched Markets using these days? Untouched Markets - pr0 - Refund My Money Now

Cameron didn't really create the story. He "borrowed" it from somewhere else, just like the rest of Hollywood.

Regardless, Avatar rocked.Comment

I can't believe anyone thought that this was a good script. The visuals were amazing and groundbreaking, but the script was SO full of tired cliches and worn out stereotypes that I was on the verge of leaving, and Vino actually fell asleep for the last 45 minutes.
I find it hard to believe that anyone older than a teenager couldn't see these problems, but then I overestimate people all the time.

She is a designer and a talented one. People with an affinity for visual arts absolutely LOVED this movie and I was one of them but of course that's not the only reason, there are too many to list.Comment

OK, just list a couple. Let me try....its pretty...it is a serious step in blending games and films...animated characters have moved to a new level of realism...
But so have video games. My problem is that this movie is so full of tricks, it never suspends disbelief. That is the primary goal of entertainment and judging by what most have posted here, this movie fails on that level.Comment

Avatar was amazing in all aspects. So the story isn't original - so what?
However, my movie of the year is Zombieland.Comment

Exactly, so it wasn't original. I guess everyone has a different taste. This movie really grabbed me like none before. But I understand that it's no Shawshank, Green Mile, Braveheart, etc.Greed is Good
