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..

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"...

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*

    • Uh oh somebody must be upset about that "Panthers don't know how to run a team post of yours" where I questioned wanting to know how you know so much and are so qualified maybe? Projecting or not Deon is a walking talking issue currently and in my opinion as shown by many issues in Colorado the past couple seasons. Shedur will bust and will not be the star his dad was in my opinion also but until we see it all play out, both yours and my opinion is just that; an opinion.  He is a good QB in college no doubt but when he doesn't have dad at the next level I am curious to see how it goes. I was once around Deon however briefly during the COVID era. His eldest son was with a team I was involved with in a capacity for one shortened COVID season. No problem with his boy but his father I could tell was an issue. Without going into details, Deon is something else entirely. Perhaps not a completely bad human being but one that can get extremely toxic and thinks the world should immediately bow to him and do his every bidding because of his own past accomplishments in football. That could get very tough if the right franchise is not found with leadership that will tell him to know his role, sit down and shut up.  Adversity does not define everything true but adversity on a football field during a season is minor compared to life adversity I've seen some other players face first hand who came from nothing and are still dealing with issues currently as they make their way through college. Football field adversity does not compare to the real world off the field and out of the locker room adversity some face. You speak as if you may know something on the subject other than what people see on television and read on the internet. What locker rooms have you been involved in or witnessed the everyday play out during the season once the high school level is passed? I have to admit my experience seeing the everyday lives play out at the NFL level is limited to former players who have gone beyond Div. 1 and I only know what is told to me by them when they return to me in off seasons and breaks so I can't fully get an idea at that level. I have however seen a few days at the college level play out and I base my opinion from the very limited I have seen out of Deon in person and yes probably biased a bit after a few of those very limited interactions but it's my opinion determined by what I have seen over the years with my own eyes out of many situations and players rather than my arm chair GM opinion based upon what I read on the internet and the statistics I see on TV. As I said, we shall see once next season plays out but the Panthers are not equipped to handle what will come with Shedur Sanders I personally believe. A team like the Detroit Lions with a coach like Dan Campbell who is not afraid to tell someone to back off, sit down and shut the hell up I could only guess will be needed when Shedur is drafted and that personality will not be needed for Shedur but for daddy.
    • I'm not even sure eating cap helps drum up a trade. Behind this line he has been pedestrian. If not a trade then they need to start looking towards finding an excuse to IR him. That has zero to do with Brooks. He is in the way and Chuba needs someone to rotate.
    • I meant to post this in the Draft section--sorry for the mistake--not sure it can be moved.  However, I try to give a different spin on things at times--This was my best guess how it could look by the end of the season, fwiw.
