Are on the road.

By Jove this is so tense and so beautiful that I pity the poor superficial idiot ( we all are ..More or less ) who can accommodate to let himself castrate with a shit a la Cameron or this weird sick Jackson kaka.

of the figures is deeply flawed. The animals in the film are ridiculous, on a par with many children's films like "Star Wars." What people are applauding is the 3-D improvement. How many raves about it when the viewer sees it in 2-D?
"2012" was a fun ride and the FX were believable, Woody was entertaining as hell, and Cusack was fine.
"Avatar" was like going to a cheap carnival and having the barker yell out political slogans.

  but IMHO, you are FOS (ummm, Freaking Overly Subjective) on this particular topic.

  Baloney! FYI, the effects don't appear "natural" because they're "other worldly" (d'oh!); it is after all, an SF flick set in an alien environment. Your behavior about this film is more childish than any dismissals you deposit here in respect to James Cameron or Avatar.

  I haven't seen this one yet, so I will reserve judgment, but from prior experience Roland Emmerich hasn't turned out a decent SF/action flick since the classic Stargate. Sadly, Roland Emmerich has become the disaster movie & star cameo king having acquired his tarnished crown from producer Irwin Allen.
  
  Cameron, OTOH, has a 100% success rate for entertaining films (except in your case, but you are an exception rather than the rule) with strong female characters (is this an area where you have a personal problem?).

    exactly does an intelligent mind make of "Avatar?"
    Nothing.
    Candy is dandy.

  You said it all yesterday.
  
  I wanted to go and see it, but my schedule stand in the way. I will maybe tomorrow, if the weather allows it.
  
  A strong storm is heading and we are at a friend home for dinner, we may be forced to remain at his home.
  WE are freezing. Wind like in Siberia ( I imagine ) and half Europe caught in ice.
  Even South of France.

  I think you may be correct. I didn't find the characters' movements "deeply flawed" but the 3D was the best feature of the film.
