That might be in part because I don't watch a lot of movies. <br /><br /><br />There were a lot of seen-that stuff like the whole mother earth thing and then big battle that made me roll my eyes, but I liked the main character okay, and Sigourney Weaver's always fun. <br /><br />It's just that the idea of using avatars to communicate with the natives is cool and it could have been an absolutely amazing movie, instead of a pretty entertaining one. <br /><br />I'm glad I saw it. <br /><br />Bonnie! you finished the whole novel? I'm impressed and I wanna read it. <br /><br />Now I have to go be Motherly.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02495558736099438348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8741443.post-62926262823769849302009-12-27T13:30:01.003-05:002009-12-27T13:30:01.003-05:00I've been wondering whether to bother.

We sat too close during the first Pirates movie and I had to stop watching partway through because I got nauseous. I think I'll wait on this. What I do want to see though, despite some marginal reviews, is the Sherlock Holmes movie. I've always been a Downey Jr. fan and Jude Law, too. Think it looks fun and I love the Victorian time period.<br /><br />(speaking of--I finished the steampunk story so I'm ready to tackle our spy project starting tomorrow)Bonnie Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14243665903604771334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8741443.post-90466541370011295822009-12-26T23:03:14.047-05:002009-12-26T23:03:14.047-05:00Ergh....

But why couldn't the story/characters/writing/whatever be more interesting and in tune with all the work was obviously put into environment!<br /><br />Also, I don't think the writers or whoever even understand the nature-loving-attitudes they are trying to rip off from other stories -- "Go be in tune with nature! Yeah, you go show that flying dragon thing who's boss!"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08433454152357239395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8741443.post-42370100044369116252009-12-26T21:08:13.379-05:002009-12-26T21:08:13.379-05:00Duh!

I loved it, "unobtainium" and all (though I decided that was definitely a "cheesy element" of the movie).Paula Reedhttp://paulareed.blog-city.comnoreply@blogger.com
