Avatar (2009)
Just what I thought it would be: style over substance.
The style is impressive, to be sure, but the substance is predictable. And the story -- well, there's not much of it, so I'm not sure why it took so long to tell it.
The top three most hilariously dumb things (out of several):
3) the scratch-faced guy drinking coffee in the cockpit during the massacre -- uh, yeah. You wouldn't be excited/wound-up enough to put that thing down, bub?
2) the fact that his big ol' robot-monster costume had a big ol' knife in its fist rather than, you know, some built in Inspector-Gadget pointy deal, which would leave the grip FREE
1) "unobtanium" or, as I call it, "cantgetium." I mean, how lazy is that name?
