I echo Frosstbyte's thoughts about the quality of the story/writing < the quality of everything else. It's insane but admirable to think about the lengths that Cameron went in the creation of this movie. We've established how amazing the technology and special effects are, but consider everything else: he hired a linguist professor to create the language, consulted with a botany specialist to create and classify the plantlife, consulted with a music professor to create a "tripartite scale structure for the alien music." He hires a friggin expert in astrophysics to calculate the world's atmospheric density!
I just feel that the writing is not up to the standard that he set for everything else. For the first 60 minutes I loved this movie, but it just didn't hold my interest once I knew where it was going.
