who has seen any new movies recently? want sto rate/comment on it?
i was invited to go and see avatar , in 3D:P supposed to be all pwetty and stuffs...
is it really worth the ticket 
?

yup
Nolio needs to do his reviews.
Anyhoo, i'm not particularly interested in going to see Avatar, although I wouldn't mind seeing the new Sherlock Holmes movie!
yes its really worth the ticket.
Dumperd stuff is just bad
very bad
i just got the link from a friend, saying let me save you 2,5 hours,
but i saw it , in 3d, and it was really pretty
the amount of typical eyemerican style hero stuffs was bareable,
same with links to/messages about hoomanity and war stuffs
sherlock holmes seems interesting as well indeed skyro
Kt really really really liked it

from what i heard the problem with avatar is that it looks awesome, but seriously lacks a good story.
indeed story is a bit slacking. Hopefully Cameron will fix this in the upcoming sequels (he planned 2 incase the first one is a hit)
/me like avatar

There is a story. Just becuz it's not blood and gore all the time doesn't mean there isn't one They had to build up to the big battle.
You could even relate it to IC. Someone trying to sneak a small player into a core so they can take over from the inside
Since that didn't work they decided to go brute force.
*Edit*
But also as the audience you needed to learn what made those people tick and why they do what they did.
"There is a story. Just becuz it's not blood and gore all the time doesn't mean there isn't one "
erm, that usually isnt my definition of there being a story or not
you could relate it to real life, and even real life politics as well
"indeed story is a bit slacking. Hopefully Cameron will fix this in the upcoming sequels (he planned 2 incase the first one is a hit)"
everything was really pretty, so one doesnt need a solid/good/real/creative/minboggling story per se, i dont expect one to be in sequels either,
he (cameron) did succeed in pulling the viewer into a pretty world, with pretty people etc, there were all sorts of emotions displayed, i can imagine them being appealing to viewers
i wouldnt mind if he did sequels
how were the boob physics?
bouncy
not that many boobs.
They were quite small compared to the height of the alien women
Odd, james cameron had to know it would be contrasted with "beowulf" with angelina jolie
I just saw "donnie brasco", that was a fun flick
donnie brasco. Thats one of my favorite movies. I recently bought the extended version.
I love the way Pacino acts like a total loser and Depp is losing reality out of his sight.
Sherlock Holmes was pretty awesome. It even started out fast with a nice fight scene and had some awesome twists and turns and if i remember correctly leaves room for a sequel.
the ending was good albeit quite sudden

the problem with Avatar:

I compare Avatar with Star Wars: A New Hope.
New technology, different approach in movie making.
But lets face it (and I am a huge SW fan) story of A New Hope and the actors themself are below par.
Yet Star Wars is seen as one of the most influential movies in the past decades.

A new Hope had a way, way better story... there was no way to see things coming like the utter destruction of a planet, a moon sized battle station, the empire putting a homing beacon in the ship, Han coming back at the very end to save Luke's ass.
the script and charecter development were way way better too. you say alot of different sides to multiple characters, that weren't nearly as easy to predict as with the people in Avatar...
Moon sized battle station is mentioned in the first second of the movie so no suprise there.
Last 3 are also no suprises. The way the scenes were made were more unique then the story itself. Its just a 'poor guy saving the princes from a evil person' does this ring a bell? Every damm disney film had that subject in the 40s 50s and 60s
The best twist SW had was Darth Vader being Lukes dad (and in lesser way leia being his sister). However this was in Empire Strike Back and suprise that is the best SW of the three. (in my opinion )

its hard to judge the predictability of star wars a new hope, because the first time i watched it, i was probably around 5...
