1. good point with the misspelling my bad 2. For sure agree with you on Inglorious Basterds. Way overrated and I really thought Brad Pitt was awful in it. |

What has it become cool to hate on Avatar?
Inglourious Basterds works because it's quirky different and has great acting and the writing is pretty good and it's shot in a well manner. That's why it works as a film. Sure it's historically inaccurate, but it's a fun ridiculous action/drama/comedy adventure. So it works. People enjoy that. It's smart not silly like Transformers. It doesn't deserve best picture, I can list 5 movies that deserve it more than it does. As for Avatar, Cameron didn't con anyone or he might have? Cliche story? Yes. Technology was fantastic? No doubt about that. Avatar showed how far movies can really go. Just like Titanic showed the amazingness of Cgi, Avatar totally made a world and civilization out of cgi and the 3d and sound were quite impressive. Good action too and it was a good time. It's a story that's been done over and over again but a good story. I say the only way to enjoy this film is Imax 3D because that's how it lives up to its full potential. Surely I'll take movies like Last Samurai over this but it wasn't a waste of money to watch. It was fun, the only problem is, can this film maintain fun on bluray and stuff? It doesn't deserve Best Picture but it deserves Best Director and best effects and yada yada. |

... because it is immensely popular. There will always be a certain contingent of people trying to score cool points by taking shots at anything that is so monumentally popular. (see George Lucas/Star Wars bashing, for an example). Last edited by mjbethancourt; 02-25-2010 at 04:34 AM. |

It sounds great on paper and it's what I enjoy the movie for. I like that story but that movie could benefit from a better script. I see the same problems with Avatar though the story only lack originality but good execution. |

you could apply that logic to any film: strip away ___, and you'd have a worthless film. not a very convincing line of argument IMO. |

That it's popular is obvious but I don't like its cornball sentimentality or its message. It's one of those movies I liked upon first viewing (which was when I was like, 12 years old) but upon further thought realized that it's manipulative of the audience and shallow and subsequent viewings have only irritated me.

... but that's not my beef with that movie, anyway; I just thought it was mind-numbingly stupid in just about every way, and it was too hectic for me to enjoy watching it. Watching that movie felt very much like a caffeine overdose or a major anxiety attack. It was unpleasant. |

You do understand the concept of a gimmick, yes? There was absolutely no point to that film, other than "hey, look! The chronology is all out of order! Awesome!" That doesn't make for much of a film. There is no "logic" to apply: there is no story, nothing of interest to me at all, the whole movie is a 113-minute editing gimmick, and nothing more. |

I will give you this. It´s very annoying to find out you´ve been manipulated. Like when I saw "The Road" a couple of days ago, and just couldn´t stop my tears from running during the end, thinking "I should have seen this a long way coming" and "This damned movie manipulated me". Afterwards I called my mother too check if she actually did birth a boy ![]() |
