Avatar: The Way of Water | 16 DEC 2022 | Don't worry guys, critics like it

[kayumanggi]

I gave the terrible DOCTOR STRANGE: MOM and BLACK ADAM a chance in the cinemas this year. There is no way this could be worse than those two, right? 😅

seems like some folks are still complaining about HFR, wonder if that had an meaningful effect in their enjoyment of the movie

gonna wait at least a week after release so that I can an opinion from people whove seen it in both formats

For critics, maybe. For general audiences, no they like smooth motion. Hence why so many tvs have motion smoothing on by default and why people dont turn it off ha.

He called both Avatar fil;ms 'silly'. Yeah maybe silly to him, but not to the masses.

Its hard to take some stuck up critics reviews seriously, some of them are so out of touch.

I know, right? How dare people have a different opinion!

[ImNotExcited]

All I needed to hear.

[Elessar]

Not everyone will love this movie. Deal with it, seriously. lol

Aren't they the only papers in Britain that do actual journalism?

Journalism maybe, but their film reviews always tend to lean more towards snobbish, particularly Bradshaw.

Telegraph and Guardian hating this.. interesting.

Peter Bradshaw hated the first one, so the Guardian reaction checks out. Telegraph critic (different one at the time) gave OG Avatar a 3/5. So neither outlet was predisposed to the original it seems, though obviously the Telegraph critic is different

Bradshaw gave a bad review to TG:M too. He complained about not enough homoeroticism

Overreactions and sensationalism on BOT after social media reactions drop?

Well tbf the 2 more high profile critics dislike it, so that's concerning.

 

Let's see the rest of them in a few minutes when the people who watch on NY and LA can post about it.

 

The rest of it which is more of "movie influencers" is pretty good, i don't get the doom. Nothing mindblowing which i get it, this one have a lot of pre-conceived expectations around it unlike the first one or TGM. But it's really hard to complain when most people are saying it's better than the first and have a better story with an awesome climax. Also, no actual complains of the 192 minutes so far which is good.

Well at least expectations can come back down to earth.

I mean he has a point. Everything's better if it has more gayness in it. Certified fact.

From what we've seen it looks like it will get a higher RT and Metacritic than the first movie. Not even I expected every single critics to love it, I just expected them to like it more than the first.

Forgive me, I have totally forgotten how to embed tweets. How do you do it?
