Saw "Avatar" last night.

I'll go ahead and say that it was a good movie. For how long it was, it definently kept my attention the whole time. But I also have to note that James Cameron basically regurgitated the plot of Titanic into a sci-fi love story/thriller.

Two lovers meet from different worlds (rich girl/poor guy, human/navi), and attempt to overcome the shortcomings of man.

I could go into more depth about the similarities, but if you've seen both movies, I think you can see what I'm talking about. I don't fault Cameron for doing this, both movies made over a billion dollars. Just noting it.

i think Dances with Wolves is a much better comparison.. but with TEH BESTEST visuals and Most Epic Scene of All Scenes..

You're not watching Avatar for the plot.

Agreed, I thought of that while I was watching it. Dances with Wolves with better special effects. But I liked Dances with Wolves, so I was ok with it.

Beyond that, how many times has a movie been made where dude goes undercover and then has a change of heart about the people he infiltrated? You get the "I was supposed to stab yous in the back, but then I got to know you" line, very original IMO. But the movie overall was very good, it did keep you interested all the way through, there was never really a good time to say "Its kinda slow right now, Im runnin to the restroom"...

Every sports movie has just about the same plot-line. Underdogs overcoming great odds. Yet we still love sports movies.

Evidently people have had suicidal tendencies from this movie. When I saw previews for it, I thought it looked stupid. There's some serious poo over this though. Crazy. People need to get out more. That day to day grind must be a killer *thinks to himself: stay in school as long as possible*
