Of "Avatar: Fire and Ash," the director acknowledges the twists he has planned might make some viewers say, "'Fuck, that's not what I signed up for.'"

Hello, I greatly enjoyed both movies, got any other original thoughts to share? Got plenty of time until the third movie

I really tried with Avatar, but the CGI is too cartoony, the second one is the worst because they have billy the human boy interacting with these cartoon characters for half the movie which just makes the uncanny valley deeper.

Its not looking unreal that's the problem its how hard it tried to be realistic and still failed.

The fact that he is 70 and takes 5 years or more to make these. I mean what year did the first one come out? He sure he will live to make all 5 and what will be the end result. I mean I saw first and said not bad. But have not seen nor plan to watch the sequel because I lost interest in waiting for a sequel.

Right? Honestly

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Not honestly!
Flippantly. Facetiously. Disrespectfully.

I'm tired of people shitting on people who like movies they don't.
Criticizing movies is one thing. Criticizing people is another entirely.
Fuck off with your gate keeping asshole shit.
