    Graphics were pretty good. The storyline was not. And shorten it to 1 hour 45 min and I'll see it again. Way too long.

    Great movie. Storyline is a-typical.... that's not really a bad thing though. The artwork is freak'n amazing, action is solid and great, Pandora is beautiful... all in all it was an amazing ride and I'm deff seeing it again.

    Saw it in IMAX-3D. Amazing... I don't generally see movies twice but since my gf hasn't seen it yet I might go again with her.

    HAHAHA they totally did!... But....
    I thought it was freakin' amazing, not just because i'm a girl, either.
    The graphics were AMAZING!!!!
    In my opinion the ratio of mushy lovey parts : Badass action scenes was a bit too much. so yes there are some kind of lame/overreaching parts.
    but for all of you action junkies there is definitely alot of fighting and destruction and such.
    If only it was like 30 minutes shorter it would be perfect.
    So that's my two cents.

    p.s. the badass Pandorian chick Neytiri is the best part. for a huge blue warrior woman she is pretty hot and she has some serious battle moves. LOL

    Hope i didn't ruin it for anyone. lol

    I enjoyed it and was quite impressed. I thought it was going to be too fantasy based and I was glad it wasn't. Now, I might have not enjoyed it near as much if I saw it on a regular screen. IMAX 3D helped make it spectacular for me. Too bad James Cameron couldn't work up an original score. He stole the music from Titanic and added tribal tones.

    I just wish they had spent a little more time on the story, but other than that it was stellar.

    Yes, exactly. I was pointing out that he was not original with the score and had to pull from Titanic-one of his other films. He should have pulled music from "Terminator", it would have been much better.

    For all we know, the original cut could have had an original song from Celine Dion-Every Canadian's wet dream. Thank god we were spared.

    Seeing it in 3D is a must. IMAX 3D is the best if you have it in your area.
