Without memeing, what is your honest opinion on James Cameron Avatar?

Purrrrrtttttyyyyyy guuuud

>>80591046
10/10

I really enjoyed it, but so did everyone else so that brought down my opinion of it a little.

>>80591046
turned it off after ~1,5 hour of nothing happening. shit movie.

I watched well aftter all the hype.
Maybe I expected too much from it but for it was just ok. Nothing special.

it's the #1 movie of all time that changed cinema forever

6.5/10

Entertaining, but forgettable, one dimensional characters, run of the mill plot, cant recall any cue from the score.

>>80591046

Anything that upsets redditors is 10/10

Its one of those movies you never think about again after leaving the theater.

I literally do not understand how this movie is pretending that the humans are the bad guys.

The entire movie is conflicting being the very obviously fact the humans are the good guys and yet the tone of the film is constantly warping this by trying to get the audience to dislike them. The movie is psychological torture.

i sought pornography of certain kind right after watching it with the intention of pleasuring myself

>>80592267
Whats not to understand? The hoomans comes to a world with a deep culture that they dont belong nor understand, and instead of trying to work around it they just go ahead and kill em.

All of this driven by nothing else than human greed.

>>80592267
>literally blowing up the blue monkeys' home and killing the them to get some good priced stones
>"""""""good""""""""

completely forgettable

I predicted basically the entire plot from the trailer, but I still enjoyed it at the time for what it was and the visuals were nice on the big screen. I don't think its worth rewatching on a small screen and I don't see the sequels capturing the same success the first had.

>>80592939

Literally the only scene I can remember is them blowing up the giant tree.

Nice worldbuilding and visuals, it was very pretty to look at, but utterly dull otherwise. Plot, characters, dialogue, none of it really stands out

The Army general, despite being dead, is confirmed to be in the three sequels.

Literally the most disappointing movie I've ever seen. Was hyped as fuck over Cameron returning to Science Fiction, since Terminator and Aliens rocked my world as a kid, and the masses of people in love with it only reinforced my excitement. I have never wanted to love a movie more than I wanted to love this one, but alas, it kinda sucked.

You let me down, Jimbo.

It'll be a redemption arc. His life force is part of the planet or some shit.

>>80593075
If that's the case then why go to Hippie World in the first place? Say the Humes get wrecked as they did in the movie. Fine. According to your pic they would just pack up and fuck off to the next planet to harvest mine. So, it begs the question: Why go in the first place? Why be so asshurt over some backwater alien planet life? The pic also heavily implies the Humes are more BASED cuz they can travel muh universe

>>80593075
when is this in the movie?

I can't find a youtube clip

It's not in the movie. It's a shitty txt graphic some autist made when this movie came out.

Neytiri is perfection, she makes the entire movie

>>80592267
the humans (or rather the mining corporation and their mercenaries) had zero ulterior motives. The mining corp wanted to sell minerals to the highest bidder and saw genocide as a acceptable way to earn more shekels. The mercs were only there because they got paid and did everything they were told.

Why dont they just nuke them from orbit?

>>80591046
Fun to watch once/twice, great in the cinema. One decent performance by angry scar man. Good set and creature design and nice and cleanly shot for a 2010's movie.
Absolutely shit plot and dialogue, embarrassingly predictable, definitely should have had another re-write, if only to make the villains not basically Captain Planet bad guys.
Also if you are hell bent on unambiguous natives=good, colonists=bad, maybe don't have the hero be a fucking jarhead who saves them all the helpless natives because he wants to bang the princess.
All the contrarian stuff about "the colonist were obviously the good guys" shit is funny, but there would be wiggle room for decent debate about the messy morality of colonisation/expansion/exploitation/endless growth/sustainable energy, unfortunately the film roots to ignore this to live out a fantasy where a colonist sides with an underdog and wins a totally good v bad war.
Hopefully the sequels expand, not retread, but keep Cameron's eye and pacing.

completely forgettable, and very heavy handed. its a movie theater movie, and painfully average when watched at home.

>>80591046
it was fucking great when it came out. First movie in 3D in my local theatre, I was truly amazed at how beautiful it was.
But yeah story's shit.

>>80591046
Solid acting, solid action, solid plot. Absolutely incredible world building; one of the only movies where I've actually felt like I was looking at an alien planet and an an alien species and culture. Maybe the best 3D I've ever seen in a movie, 100x better than the moving pop up book every "3D" movie seems to be now. Visuals that were mind blowing at the time and still manage to look better than 99% of cgi today. Epic scale that felt like I was watching Star Wars or LOTR for the first time.

Is it the best movie of all time? No. Can I see why it's far and away the most successful movie of all time? Absolutely.

Also, everyone pretending they would choose
>being a crippled faggot living on a shitty version of Earth
over
>being a 10 foot tall, dragon riding warlord married to neytiri and living in paradise
is retarded.

I like it and re-watch it about 2 times a year.

He'd be a celebrity, probably have a bunch of interviews and documentaries about life among the aliens.

This. Movie is eh but has a lot of ground to cover. Quaritch riding a dinosaur when?

>>80592558
But that's wrong, the humans repeatedly tried to come to an understanding with the aliens and resolve things peacefully, but the "noble natives" just kept killing them for being different. So after so many losses and failures, the military dude went "fuck it, let's kill the bastards right back". If the aliens hadn't been xenophobic, isolationist cunts, the whole movie could've been avoided.

Fantastic theatre experience.
Pretty good home viewing experience.

Mid tier for James Cameron movies but elevated because he used 3D so damn well.

>>80599094
>Invasion is a good thing!
The tree huggers didn't want to set up trade ports. What's there to understand?

>>80591046
i'd say it is worth a score of 4/10, mostly for ambitious special effects.

the best effects won't save a dull story with characters that aren't believeable

>>80599094
>resolve things peacefully

There's nothing to "resolve," the humans wanted their land but the navi didn't want anything from the humans so they took it by force. I can't just show up demanding your house, kill you when you refuse to sell it, then blame you for not wanting to "resolve things peacefully."

>>80599487
They didn't even get that far, the Na'vi refused to even talk to the humans for being too short and white. Hell it took a hoo-ah marine guy wearing space blackface for them to even consider communication because he was as tall as them in his fursona.

>>80591046
I've never seen it, and never will.

>>80591046
It was entertaining but unmemorable. No one gives a shit about the sequels. I wish Cameron was doing Ghost in the Shell.

>>80599909
What the fuck was Sigourney Weaver doing then? LARPing in the designated Na'vi play pen and nothing more? No. She was one of the first to make contact with those creatures and they told her "Fuck off"

>>80591046
Forgettable eye candy

Noo fucking tired of the "noble savages" meme. NO. They're SAVAGES! No civilization and they live like animals. Don't give me that spiritual bullshit either. Same way I feel about Native-Americans who bitch about not being able to ride horses and hunt buffalo back in the good old days before they had education, medicine and basic personal hygiene.

>>80591046
I watched it 4 times in the cinema, I haven't watched it at home since. I expect it's a solid 8/10 but when I saw it it was just the right movie for me with 10/10 escapism and cool robots and shit. The perfect movie for a 15 year old.

>>80591046
I was high as fuck when I saw it in 3D in the theater and it was fucking awesome. Repeated sober viewing at home was enjoyable, but I haven't watched it since.

>>80599985
He waited way too long for the sequels, people have pretty much forgotten about this by now.

>>80591046
It was okay, it was very predictable but I never felt bored watching it
6/10

>>80599997
That's exactly the point, they just told the humans to fuck off in general, before the land taking even came up. Didn't consider talking to the humans until the fursuit cripple man proved that not all humans are manlets.

In short: every side in that movie is full of cunts. The aliens are cunts who hate everyone that's different. The humans are cunts who think it's ok to kill people for being cunts. The main dude is a cunt who decides to get a bunch of humans killed for that sweet alien pussy.

Pretty much the only non-cunt is Sigourney Weaver, and unfortunately she's the designated has to die to make the audience sad character.

>>80593147
>>80593348
>>80593476
He was the only character with some charisma in the movie though, apart from some of Neytiri, so maybe a forced revival will pay off. If the sequel has the humans come back there as frontiersmen and work together with the natives and teach them the positive aspects of culture and civilization while an Attila/Genghis Khan type faction leads the navi and they clash that way. Basically a ripoff of the sequel to Rise of the planet of the apes.
