January 11, 2010 at 9:52 am Yes, ever hear of corpse bride? Maybe you've heard of once upon a time in Mexico, or Charlie and the chocolate factory? All of those were stupid, overwritten crap and all of them featured Johnny Depp. And even if HE does a great job, tim burton's direction will SURELY ruin the film.
January 13, 2010 at 10:55 am You must be one of those annoying goth Tim Burton fanatics. Nightmare before Christmas was mediocre, just as the remake of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was lackluster.
January 15, 2010 at 12:53 pm The new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory fallowed the original book much more than the previous movie, and it was twisted and creepy just like the book. I like Tim Burton because he's one of the only current film directors that keep expressionism alive.
January 10, 2010 at 3:48 pm That is certainly a reference win. South park episode, where Cartman's ideea gets "stolen" by Cameron (in the end) and turned into Avatar.
in the year 2010 it is eventual that all sorts of human scenarios have been written down in a book or in a screenplay. avatar is one of the most amazing universes ever created by the fantasy of man. this movie is based on its universe and not on its plot. when u realized that , go and see that movie one more time.
January 13, 2010 at 8:58 am wait, so you're saying that every single possible combination of events even slightly feasible in human history has been copyrighted? has a movie ever been made where a talking coke can goes into the ocean to rescue a gigantic submarine that turns out to just be a shadow that this guy say of his boat? i agree that the plot's not the point but can you honestly say that any possible plot ever has been made into a product?
January 25, 2010 at 9:02 am I wrote that script about the coke can and the sub that was a shadow of a guy's boat, and I'm suing your acid trip for copyright infringement.
January 15, 2010 at 7:36 am I agree the CG, and the planet itself is amazing, but is the plot as good as the CG? Could they have adjusted the plot so that the similarities to other movies would be diminished? BTW, My favourite character was Grace, a character I don't think you'll find in pocahontas.
January 20, 2010 at 6:48 am Someone wrote that down in ancient Egypt. Claiming that everything conceivable had already been thought up. I think a few more things have been written about by now.
January 11, 2010 at 7:00 am I prefer Last of the Bluehicans, though I had also considered Periwinklehontas. I wrote a review too: "Avatar - Movie, or Theme-park Ride?"
January 15, 2010 at 10:00 pm Shurlock Holmes was a total disappointment, but thats proly because I'm a huge fan of the books, I't was Tony Stark trying to be a detective...
Because there are only like 7 possible story lines in all of existence, so we should crucify James Cameron and Walt Disney both for using one of them instead of inventing an eighth. It's funny that people will whine about this, but will completely accept crap ass live action Scooby Doo movies, Starsky and Hutch, The Mod Squad, or any other remake of a so called "classic" from their childhood that was actually just a piece of crap show anyway. Peter Jackson's King Kong was beautiful to look at, but not in any way original. I can't wait until there is a Fall Guy and MacGyver crossover movie starring Chuck Norris.
January 10, 2010 at 5:27 pm So this movie is automatically a piece of crap in your mind even before you see it? And by the way, there is no way in hell the graphics on a video game are near as good as they are in this movie.
They used the technology very well instead of just using it to make pies fly out into the audience. Lets just call it "Pocahontas in Space" and get on with it. It was a great movie with good acting, great visuals, and a tried and true plot.
January 11, 2010 at 1:26 am yeah everyone should take a philosophy class just so we know wtf are the "7 archetypal stories in human history" to be able to successfully argue over the internet, in some blog's comments section next time a movie comes out that uses one of them and just has too much hype around it for people to care.
January 11, 2010 at 8:03 am No, you should take a philosophy class so you can become an educated individual and genuinely understand the stories you read and watch. By the way, please try to break your thoughts into more than one sentence, that disgusting run-on was painful to look at. Wait, I forgot, this is the internet age where being smart is uncool and English is being reduced to acronyms and chatspeak.
January 12, 2010 at 12:30 am "By the way, please try to break your thoughts into more than one sentence, that disgusting run-on was painful to look at." The words following the last comma constituted a related but independent clause, and should have been separated by either a period or a semicolon.
January 12, 2010 at 9:11 am So that we can become educated individuals? Philosophy programs/classes are a joke, displaying your amazing spelling and grammar skills is not going to change that.
January 12, 2010 at 11:05 am Funny that, I would call that an Americanism. Especially seeing as how keen they are to bastardise the English language and still have the audacity to call it English. Plot fail, that asides, it was still a good entertaining movie, visually stunning et cetera......
That's the only reason you should take a philosophy class... And the only reason you should take a math class is so you can understand it when you are shown the equation of how much more retarded you are than average human.
January 11, 2010 at 7:16 am You mean the 7 non-existant archetypal stories, right? Tell us which one of the 7 Moby Dick is and I'll take (another) philosophy class.
January 11, 2010 at 10:25 am pwnd oh sorry for captain english major I'll do this. Pwnd - Verb: see pwned, pzwnd, or PWNED LAWL pwnd (a derivative from owned) is a higher level of ownage. For example lets say a whiny twat is trying to come off as being smart over the internet, and some other internet goer takes note of this and takes it upon themselves to point out the various flaws that come from trying to seem smart (hot, cool, interesting) or anything else over the internet in a humorous manner. Well sir that person is pwnd, or pwned, and should hang there head in shame. But first they should receive their medal for being a walking wiki on the internet.
If you had anything above a 5th grade education you would know that the name for the plot used in Moby Dick, Heart of Darkness and tons of other similar plots is the "Sacrificial quest."
January 11, 2010 at 10:38 am "Overcoming the Monster" with a flavor of "The Quest" - See mythological stories regarding Jormundgand, Leviathan, and the like. Granted, its the small intertwined relations of the characters that characterize a story, but the point remains. To the forum here: Avatar I will be renting, as it looks pretty, but there was more advertising effort put into the fact that James Cameron directed it, and in all honesty its not the first time i've seen the Human race invade a Jungle habitat. Didn't George Lucas do something like this around 6 years ago, with the same "plasma cannons vs. Besides, the fact that Avatar(like WALL-E) is a subtle suggestion to, and bolstering of, the current commercialized Green Movement absolutely disgusts me. People, you'll go buy a Prius to be Eco-friendly, then drive your Prius to CVS to pick up your antibiotics for your case of the rhinovirus that will sit in non-biodegradable containers in your bathroom cabinet, until your pour those chemicals down the drain into the *gasp* ECO SYSTEM, because they weren't working on the common cold.
January 15, 2010 at 10:11 pm I will give you that but Cameron wrote(94 I think) Avatar before the green movement. Only reason it wasn't made back in the 90s was because he was waiting for the tech to catch up to what he wanted visually for the film. Personally Avatar was the first film I've expected t...
