probably that the whole plot could be told in the trailer, and that the other 3 hours are just 'oh pretty colors pandora beautiful'TCTTS said:
As expected, the visuals are amazing, but I'm starting to wonder why they're still insisting on being so vague about the plot. In other words, is it part of a the-movie-sells-itself strategy or is the plot too complicated/forced/lame to distill in a trailer?

This looks so bad. They took every single Hollywood Native American caricature and added them to the movie. "She feels…mighty."
They made them into literal space natives. It's so much more egregious than the first movie. They aren't even trying to hide the noble savage trope in this movie.

Reminds me of this classic line from the Simpsons.TCTTS said:BAP Enthusiast said:TCTTS said:

I don't think this looks bad at all - maybe a bit underwhelming - but that "mighty" exchange bugs the crap out of me. It could just be a trailer edit, and not how the dialogue actually goes in-movie, but...
"So what does her heart beat sound like?"
"Mighty?"
... doesn't sound grammatically correct to me. Can a heart beat "sound like mighty"?
Rather, shouldn't it be...
"So how does her heart sound?"
"Mighty."
I realize I'm overanalyzing the heck out of this, it just really stood out to me.
Sorry, I thought I was being funny. I stopped posting on the Avatar thread back in April because I realized I was just being a d*bag about a movie you really like. I wasn't trying to be passive aggressive at all. Deleting my other post. Enjoy your film, I hope it's everything you want. Look forward to continued good convos with you on Star Wars and LOTR threads.Brian Earl Spilner said:
Your continued passive aggression towards me is super weird, dude. Honestly can't make sense of it anymore.

Which one of you is going to spam this thread with twitter reviews? Tweets claiming this sequel on par with godfather 2, however no one who posts on twitter has seen a movie made before 1989
Are you surprised that the sequel to the movie that literally announced its own deus ex machina would have cheesy dialogue?TCTTS said:BAP Enthusiast said:TCTTS said:

Sorry a bunch tweets you can easily ignore rub you the wrong way so much. Also, I would literally say the opposite. In my experience Twitter is filled with uptight critics who absolutely revere movies before 1989.

You are right though, I think a lot of people on the forum like reading them so its not like we all dislike them.
