James Cameron's Avatar

Sorry to bring this back on topic, but I finally took my wife to see Avatar. She generally falls asleep in anything sci-fi or fantasy. Her idea of torture is being forced to stay awake through Lord of the Rings. Anyway, she loved this movie. :megaman:

As for me, I liked it even more seeing it for a 3rd time. I haven't seen a movie more than once in a theater since seeing the Matrix 12 times back in my Chicago days. It's funny, now I don't mind the weak dialogue, even though at first I thought it was distracting. I was not expecting it but for me it's gone from Friendly to Honored to Revered...almost to Exalted. I think i the long run it will be on my top 10 all time list (Cameron's Aliens is already on there...)

Meanwhile, soundtrack is ex-ell-excellent, though I like most anything James Horner does.

i have a useful contribution to this tangential discussion

skip to 2:00 if you are unpatiant

back to topic:

on evil avatar they posted that if you adjust avatars gross for inflation and also consider rising ticket prices its sonly the 26th highest grossing movie of all time so sitll quit a bit to go until it beats titanic ...

none the less i am very suprised with the earning power of this movie i was sure this would be a flop !

Movie grosses should be counted in tickets sold, not in $, pretty much like games (copies sold) do.

[Sentura]

haha what? hey while we're at it, let's start using tickets instead of monetary value.

Buddy has a point.

It raises the question of why is movies rated with how much it sells for in cinema while games are rated by how many copies it sell like the first week?

games too are rated by the overall gross income.

that just looks a bit weird...

Wanna-be Na'vis are the new furries :wink:

[Steppenwolf]

If we want to know more about a movies popularity counting tickets would indeed make more sense.

[Seldoon182]

I want one!
