Avatar, Part 2

OK WTF PEOPLE?!? I just heard tell that James Cameron not only is planning the sequal to Avatar (as I mentioned in the last Avatar post) but now is writing a novel that is going to be the prequel to the movie. Seriously what the f*** is there to tell? "um...it's the future...my brother died...now I'm on a new planet..." That's like a one paragraph prequel...AND IT WAS IN THE MOVIE! Ok I didn't really have all that much of a problem with this movie until now, it has gone way too far.

Snow, part 2

Ok so here in Kentucky Mother Nature constantly shows her love for the Ohio Valley by blessing us with different weather conditions seemingly every few minutes. Now we are back under lots of snow all over the state- classes in college were canceled yesterday and today they were on a two hour delay (only it's not really a two hour delay, but that's a different rant). Honestly though it's not even all that bad out...a couple inches and a bit of a wind and that's all...roads are clear and sidewalks are mostly clear as well. I just kinda wish sometimes that good ol' Mother Nature could make her mind. And also...why does it have to be cold to snow?! I LOVE snow! I HATE the cold! Snow is so beautiful, but why does it have to be so doggone cold in order for it to happen? Oh well there's nothing I can do I suppose...

Avatar

Ok so honestly can someone tell me why the hell this movie is so good?!?!? I have seen it twice at this point and I still cannot see why people love it so much. The story was simply Dances with Wolves meet Pocohontas in space and the characters even looked like overgrown smurf versions of the Pocohontas characters. WTF?! The visual effects were ok I guess, other than the fact that so much of the movie was so obviously C.G. that it probably would have gone over in my head if the whole movie had been C.G. rather than trying to mix human people into the mix too because half the time the "humans" were computer generated as well. Now it's up for countless academy awards an I want to know WHY?!?!?!? There is nothing fabulous about this movie...it is simply OK. Plus there are thousands of reports stating that people want to kill themselves because they are either not on Pandora or not Na'vi. Ok once movies take people to this point I frown upon the human race...IT'S A MOVIE!!!! It's NOT real! Sheesh! Ok so honestly now, though it won't sound like it, i don't hate this movie, I simply find it OK, a good way to waste 3 hours of my life with mild entertainment...however I simply cannot fathom why planet Earth has gone completely ape over it. James Cameron, well done I suppose because you have topped all of your Titanic landmarks...you gonna try and top them in Avatar 2? Hey, that'd be a good sequel name: "Avatar 2: Top This, F***ers!!"
