Blue People!

I'm still in my pajamas and it's almost noon. This is why Sundays are fantastic.

Yesterday I saw Avatar.

Now, I was skeptical of this movie at first. It didn't interest me much; I especially was NOT interested in the creepy-looking blue people. Also, after watching an interview with James Cameron, I was a little disgusted at just how much cockiness the man possesses, no doubt a behavior propelled by Titanic's success. However, my dad convinced me to go with him (you're gonna pay, daddy? Ok then).

I have to say, even if I don't want to admit it, Avatar was pretty spectacular. There was something pretty bad-ass about the whole 3-D aspect of the film. Though a cliche comment, it made me feel like I was in the movie--like I was swinging from the trees and riding the pterodactyl bird thingies with the blue people. I was a blue person with them. haha. Kinda cool actually.

Although I give the plot a lesser rating, I give the overall experience: ★★★

**This makes me realize that Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland is going to be BALLIN' in 3-D. Ohhhhh Yesssss.

  1. I despise James Cameron. I almost went to see it, though, because my Dad's a big science fiction fan.

  3. I can't wait to see it! I think we're going next weekend. The only thing I've seen in 3D is Coraline, which was only 3D in parts - so I'm super excited for this.

    Is Alice REALLY going to be in 3D?? :)

  5. I'm not sure I want to see 'Alice' in 3-D, if only because I want to see if it stands on its own two feet before throwing something else in the mix - ya know what I'm sayin'?

    But glad you enjoyed 'Avatar' - I had the same thought as you. In fact, I described it as, 'The Smurfs meet The Last of the Mohicans in Jurassic Park'.
