This. Is. The. Most. Epic. Movie. Ever.

Synopsis:

When his brother is killed in battle, paraplegic Marine Jake Sully decides to take his place in a mission on the distant world of Pandora. There he learns of greedy corporate figurehead Parker Selfridge's intentions of driving off the native humanoid "Na'vi" in order to mine for the precious material scattered throughout their rich woodland. In exchange for the spinal surgery that will fix his legs, Jake gathers intel for the cooperating military unit spearheaded by gung-ho Colonel Quaritch, while simultaneously attempting to infiltrate the Na'vi people with the use of an "avatar" identity. While Jake begins to bond with the native tribe and quickly falls in love with the beautiful alien Neytiri, the restless Colonel moves forward with his ruthless extermination tactics, forcing the soldier to take a stand - and fight back in an epic battle for the fate of Pandora.

Pretty much. I'm keeping those awesome 3D glasses I got so I can go see it again. I'm going to camp at Wal-Mart to get this movie when it comes out, haha

[Aigis]

3D is SEXIER in that movie. :0 I actually feel like an idiot for not keeping them. -FACEPALM- Ah well, I'll probably wanna beg to see it again.

And haha, nice. I so wanna get it when it comes out on DVD.

MEEE TOOOO.
I wanna be one of the Na'vi
They are so kick ass, haha

[Aigis]

Totally. And not to sound weird, but I thought Neytiri was pretty hawt. He got some of that! :0 -shot-

She was! She was beautiful! All of them were. Man, Jake was pretty hot, hahaha.

I gotta say, Sam Worthington is a pretty simple actor, but I do like him. He did the part pretty well for the human counterpart. Then it had some of the other actors that I always enjoy to see such as Susan Weaver, Joel Moore (Seriously, who DIDN'T like him in Grandma's Boy?), and Michelle Rodriguez.
For the Na'vi, what can I say? They were native and true to their beliefs. You see a lot of these kind of people like this in movies and television. Also, they are blue (which is pretty friggin' awesome).
Visuals were AMAZING in 3-D. Enough said.
The story was simple, but I did enjoy the love story and it really did pull you in at some points.

OVERALL, I love this movie. I'm going to watch it again soon XD

Old story, new media, great production. Saw in 3D and IMAX 3D, loved it both times.

Reminds me of Pocahontas 2050.


Not my cup of tea. Visuals? Stimulating. Plot? Eh, I didn't like the Disney classic. Didn't like the futuristic version of it. Rinse and repeat stratagem.

I don't know, maybe I have an extremely open mind, but I didn't even notice the resemblance between Avatar and Fern Gully/Pocahontas/whatever. Now that people mention it, I do see it, but it was different. I loved that movie, and I didn't mind that the plot wasn't totally original.
