I can do that at home now and can watch the movie over and over. The visual effects are breathtaking!

the original poster wasn't suggesting that he'd rather sit in the theater, he was suggesting that he'd rather see it in 3D.

agree. i actually enjoy Wahlberg's films. found it odd how much Worthington kind of sounded and looked like him. i've never seen him in any films before this one.

Didnt. Most recent for me with him was Departed and I thought he was pretty great in that. I remember him in something called Cape Fear I think it was called, pretty good in that too.

Waht leads you to believe that Casey was predisposed to disliking Avatar?

frogmort · 04-23-2010, 07:24 PM

I find it odd that people who don't really care for this movie are on here night and day bashing it.Why not go to a thread of a movie you actually like?I'm just asking.

I have a 120hz XBR. If I turn on cinemotion it looks like a soap opera on LSD.

With all the gizmos off, it looks like FILM.

thats not wahlbergs fault, it was a horrible movie, dosent mean hes a bad actor.
hes a great actor, he got nominated for a Oscar, and in my opinion he shouldve won cuz he was amazing in the departed

Lt. Aldo Raine · 04-23-2010, 07:28 PM

Not THAT simple.

People buy junk food because they can get it fast and cheap, not because they like it so much. Not many would choose junk food over quality food if the price would be similar.

In the case of Avatar the choice was made purely on quality since the tickets for Avatar were definitely not more affordable than the tickets for other movies.

Like always people chose quality they could afford and Avatar happened to be the best bang for the buck in the history of cinema.

No acting performance could have saved that film.

Worthington was worthless as usual, just a dead duck with no emotion and pretty much no personality or anything memorable about him at all. Luckiest guy in hollywood.

He's good looking, well built and has an Australian accent. The world is his oyster.

Seriously though, he will be tested as time moves on.

How is it this guy got into a movie like Avatar? I dont get it.

Cheap labor.

Yeah,I guess you're right.He may not have been,but alot of the "dances with smurfs" type of references seemed familiar.I felt like he had already made a decision,but I could be wrong.I give his review a 3.5 out of 5.

I didn't see anything like that inside the case, granted I didn't look too hard.

I heard rumors of some sort of savings for the Nov release for those who buy the barebones blu, but they are just rumors.
