I'm gonna suggest a taste bud transplant. It ain't on the menu but they'll fire one up that you won't stop talking about.

if you're comparing it to a bacon cheeseburger.
Did you see Avatar? - Bambi B 08:48:20 02/15/10 (1)
tinear,

Your intense dislike of Avatar would be more interesting- and valid- if you could enumerate specific criticisms rather than merely generalised negatives. There are movies in which I could not think of more than one or two redeeming qualities, but with Avatar this is simply not possible- the craftsmanship and technical aspects are astounding regardless of the content.

I may have missed this of course, but I've never noticed in your posts your mentioning actually having seen it.

  I'm not a fan of its CGI. The figures are far inferior to Miyazaki's inventions, for instance. The story? Let's say childish and let it go at that.
  More particularly about the "appearance:" some, quite obviously, saw the film and thought it was a perfectly realized parallel universe. I didn't, seeing the inferiority of the likenesses' computer workings.
  As I said, Jar Jar Binks multiplied a hundred-fold.
  Now, I don't find it amazing that such a film is so immensely popular. After all, Star Wars similarly is so, and LOTR.
  It is the attempt to somehow present this as more than mindless entertainment that sits poorly with me, and many others.
