I really got excited and thought this was about the other (IMHO better) Avatar

But this font looks cool too.

on edit: I guess 13 years later, but who cares, it's Avatar the movie.
I mean, I do like the ideas and messages Avatar the movie was going for, but perhaps it was too visual for me. The experience of watching in theater was great/dazzling but nothing really stuck with me.
Maybe you mean Grace Augustine, Sigourney Weaver's character?
on edit: I mean it's a pretty hilarious confirmation of my point if so.
I actually liked the movie, it's just that the characters aren't often addressed by names, so it's hard to remember them. In Aliens, for example, people always refer to each other by names (Vasques, Hudson, Bishop, etc), but in Avatar they don't.
(And i can probably name actors who played most roles, including Giovanni Ribisi)
As far as Avatar ’The movie’, the plot & storyline was certainly not the most original, or memorable, but I’ll never forget watching it in 3D in the theater.
Still to this day, I don’t think any movie has come close to utilizing 3D visuals they way they did. It’s was absolutely stunning, and added a lot to the experience!
Especially for the time it came out, the 3D tech was just starting to become popular in theaters. I’ve seen many movies since then in 3D, and it always seems like an afterthought. Doesn’t really change or add that much.
Avatar, on the other hand, seemed to be designed from the get go to be a 3D movie and it shows. I will always hold it in my mind, as the pinnacle of 3D movies. Still waiting for someone to make a movie that even comes close.
Funnily nobody watches movies in 3d anymore I think? Looks like it was bust a fad.
This is okay IMO. There is no shortage of great movies. I don't mind that we've got Avatar: the incredible tech demo with uninteresting plot instead of Avatar: a good movie.
It's hypothesized that, with old accounts of Lumieres' enterprise being very messy, the 2D premiere of ‘The Arrival’ was conflated with the 3D showing, and that's where we get the stories of the audience panicking about the train.
Avatar however, took us to a whole new level. The modern CGI, along with the incredible amount of effort that went into planning out the cinematography to integrate with the 3D, is truly unmatched.
Many big ‘Blockbuster’ still have 3D versions, but it’s so clearly just something they add on after the fact, and they weren’t designed with that in mind. Very forgettable.
It has its place in some movies.
Sure sure, and storyboards were probably done by Picasso.
Possibly the greatest scene in cinematic history.
My only complaint about it is that in the beginning of S1 they had way too many gags at Sokka's expense. Fortunately, they've significantly dialled it down around episode 6 or 7.
