I saw it the day it was released (or the day after, I can't remember) and it was awesome. The 3D was absolutely gorgeous, and whoever said it looked like crap probably didn't wear his/her 3D glasses.

As for the story, it was good, but it could've been more. I always hate how most films get some sweet love-story mixed with an action packed story. It just doesn't match...
 
Watched in 3D in the cinema, watched the Blu-ray yesterday (half-watched, was on the computer and it was really my mum that was watching it again).

I'd give it a 10, maybe a 9 if I wanted to sound more critical.
 
I watched Avatar in 3D. I must say it easily counts as the most boring cinema experience of my life. Pretty visuals aside the story is completely predictable and by the numbers, its just a paint by numbers story that has nothing original to offer. Each and every character in it ticks off a cliché box too, and its about an hour longer than it needs to be with horrible pacing and it feels like it drags on forever.

Its honestly one of the least praise worthy films ever made, I just cant understand why so many people love it.

5/10 (and thats me being generous)
 
2/10

I want my money back, dammit...

The movie start off nicely but after a while, as soon as you made the link between this and pocahontas, the following movie fails immediately, it's just character and setting swapping...

but fine... i give it a 6/10 thanks to it's shininess and detailed, but story wise ^

@pingy: simple, people hyped that movie up like that's the best movie made in existance... Now sherlock holmes, i would give it a 10/10 cos dammit sherlock is awesome!!
 
7/10 it was predictable but I liked it considering that trailers give away almost all the story all though that's a problem for every film but it was still predictable without the trailers.
 
6.5

Pros:
It looked amazing. Like it's probably technically the prettiest movie I've seen.

Cons:
The Story sucked
The Script really sucked
The Art direction wasn't very creative
The Characters sucked
McGuffin.
 
ANYBODY WHO RATED AVATAR BELOW 9 IS A SOULLESS BASTARD!!!!!!

Even after watching it couple of times.....it's still high on my list, I really like it a lot.....
I'll be watching BluRay on projector at home in few days, and let you know if home experience "less"-ns the movie for me..

Truth be told, I feel the same way about Shutter Island.

Does it make it a bad movie? Not really. I can see where it could be a dealbreaker for some but for me it's not a big deal.

Besides.....I'm kinda subjective..Terminator is my all time favorite, T2 is my all time favorite in second place.....I simply have to like Camerons work

Awkward. I thought Shutter Island was completely unpredictable...

You're right, I was typing fast, so it was written "reflexively".
I'll fix it now, thanks for pointing it out!
 
Avatar = Pocahontas + Matrix + Dancing wolves. Avatar's script is like "Pocahontas" but changing words XD.

Cameron doesn´t are the master making original scripts.

Avatar is simply a product of marketing disguised as film made with a script, previously copied, to exploit the innocence of the average viewer.

All a great example that people eat anything that's on the plate.

Now, flame me for tell the truth
