That new movie with Russel Crowe and Ridley Scott looks awesome.

The *very* cool thing about Avatar is ..
..now they have the tech to do Dragon Rider's of Pern
.. and The Ship Who Sang
.. and ..perhaps Starship Troopers using the actual book instead of just the title
.. Hammer's Slammers ..
.. so many others :)

Princess of Mars series would be awesome... but I heard Disney had got the rights recently, dunno how disney are gonna handle scantily clad martian princesses.

Well, I just got back from seeing it in 3d on the big screen.  I have to say that I was absolutely amazed.  It felt like I was part of the story.  It was definantly worth $20 for two people.

Ya, I just got back from seeing it a 2nd time. Brought the wife and kid this time. As we used to say back in the '70s, "ahahaha man that was trippy".

Seeing it a second time you notice stuff you missed the first. I havnt felt this way about a movie since 1977 when Star Wars first hit the screen. But Im a big Sci-Fi fan.

Yeah I watched it myself tonight, but here at home.  I have to say it was a really good movie, amazing special FX, and a great story line.


Spoiler Alert:
Only question I have about it is what was it that happened at the end, was his mind permanently transferred into the Avatar?

Can't watch it in 3D, I'm almost blind in my left eye, you need to be able to see out of both your eyes in order to see 3D movies, until about 10 years ago whenever I'd go see something in 3D, like at an amusement park, I would always think what are they talking about, I didn't see anything look like it was coming at me, then I realized it was due to my left eye.

I'm guesiing it's Last Samuri meets Star Wars.

Except the Ewoks kicked butt way better than those blue dudes.

Great effects. Boring, dull and very predictable story.
