Jack Nevada Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 T1 is my favourite Cameron film. It's absolutely a five star movie and a true masterpiece of scifi. Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Avatar was good for a single watch in theaters in 3d. On the small screen the fast forward button is needed a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 The Avatar hate is over-blown.People either resent its success or its message.Either way the movie is average at worst. I think it has impressive visuals and action with important themes I agree with.I look forward to an Avatar sequel over most of Hollywood's lazy, mass produced crap.I don't really agree in any way with the environmentalist agenda, but I enjoy the movie nonetheless. I also agree with you that the hate it receives is over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry McGillicuddy Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Avatar is not bad, but it has one of the least interesting main characters for a blockbuster ever, and certainly the least interesting of Cameron's career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gaurantee that if AVATAR had flopped big time, many people would be saying things like "god people are so dumb, they ignore a great film like AVATAR but spend shit loads going to see shite like Transformers". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyCraig Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Solid hold, less than a 54% drop when you subtract midnights. Here is what'll probably happen, and I'm trying to be conservative here:Fri - 29Sat - 43 (+49%)Sun: 28.67(-30%)Total: 100.67 (-51.3%) It has a good chance of beating TDK's drop, unless it's Sat increase disappoints or Mother's Day kills Sunday completely.

Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Bullshit, tdk/nolan fans care very much about bo, otherwise they would`t go in rage-mode every time a movie owns it, avatar, avengers etc. And the new batman franchise got most of it`s fans, after it was such a monster bo-wise. After BB there were`t so much fans who were bad mouthing and shit talking every other movie. But after tdk sucess, wohhhoooooooo, man shit just got serious.yeah TDK made 533m and I think it too much for one movie.I am happy with TDK success and TDKR will do 400m+ which is more than enough for me.Avengers will make 600m and I do not want to pass Titanic box office.

stuart360 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Thanks so JC doesn't have bad movie on his ledger.They only started crediting his involvement after Cameron got successful, some Italin guy was credited when the film was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiantCALBears Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) think of how often movies (especially the big franchises) have happy endings, its almost a requirement in story structure; just about as basic of an example you can get Edited May 12, 2012 by GiantCALBears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I'm sure there's a better comparison because that one is kind of terrible. Luke Skywalker's piloting was definitely more important than Harry's Quidditch abilities but I'm not gonna bother with the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 TA has really picked up today.Already one sellout today at my theaterNumerous day time sellouts around 2-3 pm around me.Its a great sign feel like a film getting a 40+ million Saturday for sure...

CJohn Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) And open endings. That is becoming a must in every movie. Even Dark Shadows has an open ending! Just why did that movie needed one?! Edited May 12, 2012 by CJohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Also, predictably no one answers my questions on why Five Year Engagement and Pirates! held worse than the Lucky One after holding better during the week and arguably better WOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just why did that movie needed one?! studios are desperate for franchises that come from larger than expected grosses, could be an explanation why so many sequels past 15 years compared to ever before even with movies that don't exactly gross a lotnow of course DS will not be one of those but they didn't know that when they made it Edited May 12, 2012 by GiantCALBears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
