I definately need to avoid the 3D showings as I am afflicted with monoccular vision (I only see through one eye) therefore I can't see the 3 D effect and just see a red movie...which is ugly.

I heard it's just another version of Ewoks vs Imperial.

Fnny you should say that. When I have seen 3D films in the past, the projected scenes have been sharp in the centre, but blurred and overlapping to the sides.

This film gave you a full sharp screen. When I removed my glasses on several occasions to see how it looked, the image quality was pretty good. So I suspect you would get a decent viewing quality.

BUT without the special 3D effects, I wouldn't rate the film very highly.

Wait for the non-3D DVD to come out.

Though it won't change how you see the movie, I feel I need to point out that you are indeed an "Old Man ©". The red/green glasses dissapeared along with 1980, it's all about proper stereoscopic action now. :P

[Hiflyer]

Yup, now if you watch a 3d movie without the glasses it just looks fuzzy

[wisefxx]

the movie was awesome. loved it. but it should be good being the highest costing film of all time!

[Thani-B]

I thought it was awesome too. Will definitely go see it again. You can see it in 2D if you cant/dont want to see it in 3D. I took my glasses off a few times and it doesnt make a major difference, but would definitely recommend seeing it in 3D if you can.

Or "Dances with Wolves" in space.

The CG was good, but I didn't really like the story/characters/direction. There were bits where they introduced things that were used later in the movie that seemed too obvious. And something (many things?) about the characters/relationship with the aliens etc. didn't seem right.
I'm not much good at putting stuff into words.

Starship Troopers was more believable.

District 9 was a million times better.

[Tone165]

Yeah I give it 9 out of 10 too!

But I don't think it really is a true story!

I saw it at the IMAX cinema on Thursday night. Well worth seeing the IMAX 3D version instead of the standard digital one if you're in Auckland. It's gorgeous.

Quite safe to take the little kids along to, to - all the violence is magically bloodless. Must be a low-gravity thing.

Great movie.

[jrandom]

District 9 was a million times better.

District 9 wasn't Hollywood pablum, though, so the writers were free to make it interesting.

Given the stupefying level of financial commitment that was undoubtedly involved, you can't go in expecting Avatar to risk transcending safe storytelling conventions.

With luck, though, it'll act as a proof-of-concept that'll open the technology (and investors' pockets) up to less milquetoast applications.

Cartoon character noun. Tres apt.

[woodybee]

Oh wow Dudes and Dudess's

Just got back fro watching this epic and have to buy it on dvd as a keeper when it comes out.

Blimey I got transported and felt like I was one of "The People" when the film had finished, felt full of wellbeing until I went into the boozer after the film with my new biker mate, and it was fullof naty piss heads, blimey the more I see nd deal with piss heads the less I want to drink...uh oh.

Anyway, the idea behind the film, was enourmous, and the plot was fab, who thinks of these films, where you can transport yourself into the film, and feel like your part of it running through the forest and up in the trees.

Talk about identifying with what they were on about, feeling the forest around you but those of you who know me know that I am weird like that. Not so many trees to hug over here anyway!!!

I would emplore anyone who hasn't seen the film to go and see it, got tears welling up at one stage, then venoumously wanted to kill the bad guys.....grrrr

It's a feb film guys, go and have a feel good 3 hours......

Happy in Between Bit.

There's only 29 days till I bounce off the airplane in the wonderous country of NZ.......get me a and get away from all this chilly icy wind and treacherous icy roads.....ooooooooooooo yuk I hate winter.

bfn (bye for now) Woodybee

PS I want me one of those flying things to plug myself into.....how
