what the fuck is wrong with you people this movie was terrible
the only thing that could've saved it was the entire blue-cat-elf species getting genocided into oblivion
stephen lang was badass though so that's something I guess?
Yes, actually, but it's for the most part nonexistent in Western languages. Thus why there is no letter to represent it in the Roman alphabet and that is compensated for instead by an apostrophe to mark a break in the flow of speech. The apostrophe takes the place of the "glottal stop" and the "guttural stop", vocal sounds that Western explorers encountered when they began to sail to other continents and came into more intimate contact with other races and began to document aspects of their culture and account for things such as language.
Just saw it and Holy Fucking shit. It didn't even feel like I was watching a movie. 3D made it awesome. I might go back and see it in IMax 3D. I wasn't expecting a very good story, seeing how it's James Cameron, but it was better than I expected.
with a crew of over 950 visual effects artists, I must say that movie was 0.o. I couldn't tell the difference from fake and real, except those obviously non-earth things, but that's only because of the design, not the visual. Outstanding visuals.
It's the age of exploration type stories...in Space.
I love the Banshee in this movie!

Just saw it in imax 3d tonight. Gotta say, I love Neville's work. He was an instructor of mine and also did creature creation for this film. The story was very well set up to explain Pandora itself, which is what was so important about this film. All the story needed to do for character interaction was show the difference in opinion between groups about this-or-that, and it did it well enough.
Great film, I absolutely recommend seeing it.
Just saw it with some friends. Didn't see the 3-D version though, however the movie was still outstanding. I really want to go back and see it in IMAX 3-D.
The storyline was pretty decent, graphics were practically mind blowing, voice acting could of been better, but I don't really care about that.
either way, amazing movie, must see now![]()
I don't know my opinion of the movie...
They seem to want to self-contain the movie... so they fed pieces of information inside it in little chunks...
Which makes it long and predictable -- because you can tell what partswill appear later on in the film.
On the other hand, they also made you identify with the characters -- not individually -- but collectively. Individually they were kinda 1D.
They also didn't beat you over the head with the 3D aspect of it... it was used subtly... too subtly in a couple of parts, as per below:
Never DOF blur foreground objects in 3D! If it pops out at you, you might want to focus on it... which if it's DOF'd is impossible... and ruins the illusion. DOF only for the background, if at all... preferably not at all.
In 3D you have less control over what the audience sees... and so the common 2D trick of using DoF to draw audience focus just doesn't work.

Oh and the emotional moments were blown out and some of the dialogue was cheese... but the higher-level story (not dialogue, story) was great.
