Re: Are you an Avatard?
Well I saw the movie in the cinema (imax) – to be honest I wasn’t disappointed…then again my expectations wasn’t that high. It’s an ok movie, I had a few chuckles at the cheesy lines from time to time – but I stayed awake all the movie which is more than you could say about my brother. The movie it self is very nice visually but the story was – as I expected very predictable….VERY.
I’m just happy I didn’t spend any money on it…well except on the overpriced candy.

Do not be quick to reveal judgment. Hidden judgment is often more potent. It can guide reaction whose effects are felt only when too late to divert them.

For a zillion dollar movie I'm sure they could have done better, but I wasn't expecting it to be fabulous, and it didn't disappoint. It was impressive, but it was silly like I thought it'd be.

Well at least it gives me something to trash online when the KJA news cycle is slow. That's pretty entertaining, and I didn't even have to go see it.

Re: Are you an Avatard?
Yeah, the story was fairly predictable, but on the whole, I enjoyed it nonetheless. I was intrigued by some of the ideas, I cared about the characters, and I wanted to know what was going to happen, so that qualifies as a good movie to me.
The visual effects were pretty amazing - I still don't know in any given scene where the CG stopped and the live action started - but it was the more the story and characters that entertained me.

I'm still very proud of The Quarry but … let's face it; in the end the real best way to sign off would have been with a great big rollicking Culture novel.

It's not a question of weight ratios. Its a question of lift power.

Nah, they'd have to have it on a line, or something.

There should a Godwin's Law for this sort of thing: given enough time, any SF/F/genre messageboard discussion will eventually feature Monty Python quotes.

Re: Are you an Avatard?
I'm not an Avatard but I enjoyed the movie, sure it's nothing unique or great from a story perspective but I still found it to be an enjoyable action flick.
I did actually register at the biggest Avatard forum out there in January though, for the lulz.. It was hilarious, bunch of idealistic naive people that cried about how they want Earth to be like Pandora.
Yeah, that's what we need, a planet where EVERYTHING wants to eat us.

Wait! I thought we already were there. Come down here in the summer and you'd think that everything was out to eat you...at least every little buzzing insect.

Ironically enough it was this:lotek wrote:i can't wait to see what prompted that question!Ampoliros wrote:"Its not a question of where it grips it, its a simple question of weight ratios! A 5 ounce bird could not carry a 1 pound coconut!"
to which the quote instantly came to mind. its how my mind works i guess. the $400m is the bird that couldn't carry a 1-pound film.
