*This movie is too much inspired by Pocahontas and Dancing with wolves (and some other which I dont remember). The plot is horrible and predictable, its like you seen it before.
*The names of Pandora and Unobtainium are stupid. Could they not come up with something better?
*The whole movie is just a eyecandy explosion. Nothing else is great.
*The movie has a secret message such as, the white man once again being bad trying to eliminate the natives, or, "This is just more like USA invading the middle east due to the resources."
And what the hell do I have to answer on these?...
*What original movies can you see nowadays? Movies are pretty much always influesed by other movies, at one point or another. What makes this movie so horrible in the plot? Yes, it may be predictable, but I didnt think the dialogues were that bad, just a cliche. However, what makes this unique is the graphical effects. Hell, James Cameron planeed to release this movie 1999, but considering how bad the techinque of that time was, and that he would have a budget on nearly 500.000.000$ no company wouldnt even want to do it. So, imagine how fucking cheezy this movie would have been 10 years ago.
Also, what the hell? Pocahontas? I haven't even seen that movie, and I thought of nothing about that one when I watched it. To be honest, I like the fact that 'a man getting taught about a woman' not the other way. Sure, some find this movie stereotypic because of the plot and if you are a plot carer like Poot, you shouldnt see it. If you like stunning visual orgasm scenes like me (I do think plot is important sometimes, but Id say it was enough to make it entertaining in Avatar) I'd definitly give it a go.
*I could agree on Pandora and Unobtainium, at least the first one sounds unoriginal and the latter one like a joke. But well, consider it:
wiki said:
Unobtainium is a humorous name for any extremely rare, costly, or physically impossible material needed to fulfill a given design for a given application. The properties of any particular unobtainium depend on the intended use. For example, a pulley made of unobtainium might be massless and frictionless. However, if used in a nuclear rocket, unobtainium would be light, strong at high temperatures, and resistant to radiation damage.
Yes, scientists actually do use it. Why can't people in the future and/or in a movie use it as well?
*Yeah the eyecandy... But ever though of that Avatar has a certain uniqueness not only made by effects. The imagination is terrific. The planet of Pandora, the environment, the Avatars and the Na'vis themselves made the movie interesting. Also not everything was CGI. Alot of it was indeed, but consider that the navi characters for instance had to learn to ride horses and such to be participating in the movie. And there is not only CGI involved, but alot of makeup styling. The helicopters were real, and if I remember right the armored human robots are real too. Parts of the environment were filmed on Australia or new Zeeland, while some parts were animated. And I could also say that the 3D effects of the cinema was great, as they were not "overdone". I felt at no time it became too much, but not too little either. Another thing, the soundtrack was definitly awesome...
*You know what, the third argument just gets me tired. Considering James Cameron had 12 years of development or development planning on this movie ofcourse he gets some ideas from what happends in the world. And that happends alot in alot of movies,
but to be honest, it doesnt fucking always have to involve USA and it's political and military shit. Hell why can't people just enjoy the movie as another science fiction movie. Why do you have to think that there is a political hidden message? I watched it twice and none of the times did I think of someone invading another race or country in our world.
A sidenote, alot of people complain about its budget, and that it is totally not worth the money. But usually, if something would cost much to develop the price of the outcome would be higher. The Avatar movie still costs around 10£ to watch in the cinema, and the 3D one here does cost around 15£ I would have guessed it is about the same everywhere else, but I could be wrong. Anyway, like I said, imagine that it would have cost 500mill $ back in 1999... And now their budget is about 235mill $. Yeah, and how much have they earned so far? Around 382mill $ stabily inrcreasing everyday. What does imdb say about its quality? nealy 60.000 voted and it has an average of 8.8/10 - #22 of imdb ratings. The nominates? 4 Oscars and 9 at the Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards. This movie has achieved alot already... I expect it to win in some categories.
