Finally got to see Avatar yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The iMax 3D experience was fantastic. I may never be satisfied with a regular movie again.
The special effects were special. You really felt you were there. You could feel the forest around you. It was a beautiful place. The characters and world were deeply developed. The premise, history, and interconnected-ness of all things was a message we can all use.
The story line was predictable, but aren't they all.
Avatar was a life dream of producer James Cameron, who spent 20 years and $250 million of his own money to make it. The total cost was somewhere around $500 million, but looks like they'll make their money back in no time. Viewer turn out has been, well, special.
Have you seen it? What did you think of the technology in it (cryogenics, aviation, cloning, "linking") or the technology to make it (3D movies, human animation, computing engineers)?
