So I finally went to see Avatar. I'd avoided all reviews and stuff on the web like the plague since I wanted to see it as pure as possible.

Well it was definetly pretty. Visually it was one of the nicest things I've seen in a loooong time. If the story had even a fraction of the effort put into it that the visuals did, it would have probably been amazing.

As it was I kept being annoyed by the cliched crap he was throwing on screen. Also for the love of god, long doesn't mean good.
Spoiler: The last fight between Sully and the colonel on the ground was completely pointless and could have been cut without affecting anything. Plus since they were just planning on bombing the place what was the point of the ground troops other than to draw out the big battle at the end?

I don't know, maybe I was just expecting a decent story out of the guy who gave us Aliens, the Abyss, and the first two Terminators. Hell even True Lies.
