I heard that they were making a part 2 of Avatar. Can’t wait to see this one in the theaters. I really enjoyed part 1, hopefully they would be able to make a wonderful part 2.

I watched this one with my sister and I really love this movie. This is one of the movies that I consider “The Best”. I like its visual effects especially when they were on the tree. And when there body glowed when they tried to revived the main character.

The movie is fantastic.If I have to be honest when I saw the trailer I was very sceptical about it but when I have watched it I loved it!

I understand that there might be a few similarities with “Dances With Wolves” and “Avatar” but the plot is *not* the same at all. Also, I think people should be glad that “Avatar” is an actual great, original film with lots of meaning behind it. Lately all of I’ve been seeing in the theater is
-remakes of old movies
and
-movies into books.
I’m glad that James Cameron has made a new interesting movie that does not relate to those above.
About the animation: Whether you think it’s supposed to distract people about how it ‘dazzles them and makes them already a great movie’ or not, you all must agree that it’s like a step foreword for future movies(and maybe even games) to be even better.

I thought I was the only one to see the similarity to Dances with Wolves.

WOW. I heard none of the hype and had no preconceived notions. I do not like 3D but just watched this movie in REAL D. You wear different glasses and the effect appears not to be so intense; my eyes were comfortable.
Again, I was blown away by this movie.
Yea, the horse like creatures and native theme evoked several comparisons with Dances… but, as someone says above, it is a recurring theme in ‘new world’ narratives.
I feel this movie has raised the bar on bringing the audience INTO the story.
It is a first rate production of an epic story with cutting edge graphic effects. Wow.
Faith, community, and the fact that our Judeo-Christian, consumer oriented, world produced the antagonist make this somewhat controversial. The pagan Pandoreans were fighting for their ‘connectedness’ with all living things. Sitting in the audience, in a community that considers evolution controversial, made me smile and feel uncomfortable at the same time; I was looking to see if anyone walked out when the natives were chanting around the Tree of Souls.
One of my top 3 favorite movies of all time. Princess Bride, Pulp Fiction and Avatar in Real D.

I think people are talking about the Dances with Wolves similarity.

I think you are right when you say that you cannot take out the visuals of this movie to call it a “good” movie. The whole experience of this movie is integrated into the visual effects. The storyline, albeit overused, is integral as well. The storyline is classic and that’s what makes this movie work. It is also what allowed the visual effects to have such a seamless presence. You take good solid ingredients, mix em’ together and you’re bound to have a good batch of cookies.

Thanks for the honest review. Goolphipp loved Avatar too.
