So suddenly NOT watching Avatar has made me the social outcast.

[GrinningManiac]

Just watch Pocahantis

Cheaper and more original

Whilst being identical

Or you could not make a big deal out of it.

I haven't seen it, and someone said that was weird to my face. And no one cared.

 

[Pyro Paul]

Seriously though, just wait for the hype to die down and you'll be fine. That said, I saw a website the other day promising to teach you how to speak Na'vi which is pretty bloody sad

and how is that sad?
it is a wonderfully crafted language which has a very beautiful and artistic flow to it considering it has no stop consonants. after all it was constructed by an individual with a doctorates in lingunistics to fufill a specific role.

Print out that "rewritten script" document proving for a fact that Avatar is the exact same thing as Pocahontas. Shove it in their faces, then up their ass.

 

[Garaw]

The movie is just more fx vomit. I don't give a rat's ass what earth shattering techniques were involved. After hearing the synopsis of the preachy and tired old story, I can't even be bothered to download it for free.

This, pretty much. I guess I'm an asshole because the guilt I'm supposed to feel over my melanin levels just rolls off my back like a varnished duck.

lol omg avatar sux0rs lolololcopter.

In the immortal words of Ham Salad, "Take it easy kid, it's only a movie." Sure, I didn't really like it, and some people really didn't like it, but other people went gaga over it. Just because it's not obviously perfection or obviously rubbish doesn't mean that people must insist that it's one way or the other. Besides, who cares what other people think?

It's an artificial language that nobody speaks, outside of a few bored people with nothing better to do. Much like Klingon. It's not exactly the kind of thing you'd brag about at a party. "I speak Na'vi!" /blank stares at your useless talent

 

[MagnetoHydroDynamics]

People say Avatar is really just Dances With Smurfs...

I say Avatar is sooooo pretty you won't notice.

Don't give in my friend! Stay true to yourself!

how would one find such a website without looking for it, hmm?
Nah, it's cool (It wouldn't be if you didn't have your avatar from one of my favourite animes).

 

[Ace of Spades]

Welcome to the club.

 

[thiosk]

No you cannot win, and also, no you should not care.

 

[benbenthegamerman]

So now I am shunned because A. I haven't seen Avatar and B. I am not facinated by pretty things that can be made on the computer for a sci-fi movie.

What is going on? can I just not win?

because you are a loser.
to make a blanket statement such as 'It is made on computer' just screams of your ignorance on the subject. your nonsensical standpoint on the subject is much like questoning weither the moon exists or stating that the world is flat. you shouldn't wonder why you garner scorne from people.

Most of it was made with computers. Sure, there were actors, but most of the movie was still just animation made with computers. also, insults? really? are we all five years old?

Don't worry, you're not missing much.

english is an artifical language, and several hundred years ago nobody spoke it... now look at it, it is the most widely recognized language in the world.

 

[Lamppenkeyboard]

If you are set on not seeing the movie, then just don't listen to them. You don't have any reason to care what they think.

 

[Goldeneye103X2]

Im probably going to get suspended for this, but the reason people don't like you for not watching avatar is...

OMG AVATAR IS TEH BEST MOVIE EVOR, IT R BETTAR THEN TRANSFORMERS 2.

Ughh.............

 

[Baby Tea]

I really enjoyed the film.
I'm not understanding why people are griping about it, especially when they haven't seen it.
"I heard about it from this kid I know, so I know it's bad."
When it comes to movies: That's one of the stupidest thing I've heard.

The visual effects were breathtaking, and the story took themes and characterizations from other works and combined them in a really awesome way into a great, fun story. A fresh, visually stunning, and entertaining take on older themes.
Geez, some people ***** about "originality" more then an introverted goth kid bitches about individuality.
Get over it and enjoy yourself.

 

[-BloodRush-]

why dont you just see it for the sake of shutting these people up? personally, i think the story was done well, and i wasnt interested in the movie because of the "pretty graphics", it was the changes in the characters that satisfied me. if this movie was done as a newgrounds flash i would have liked it anyway.
