Avatar was simply beautiful. You are ...Nice list! <br /><br />Avatar was simply beautiful. You are right, Cameron created yet another blockbuster, except this time the effects were pushed even further. If I am not mistaken, both Weta and Industrial Light & Magic were collaborative in the making which is quite interesting since both names are some of the best in digital. <br /><br />The renderings were vivid colors and with ultimate realism. The story was nice, and I think this goes way beyond movies with the same sort of plot like last sammarai, etc. The fantasy created here is one of science fiction's best and like you mentioned, established a pure "admiration" for fictional pandora. Was an extremely fun movie, especially in 3D.Matt Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16964663889596460430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890437724783905690.post-15875847029832771532009-12-29T08:49:54.078-08:002009-12-29T08:49:54.078-08:00Awesome.

The Incredibles was full of action, but because of the superhero type story, I never really got into the story. UP grabbed my emotions, and pushed me to the edge of my seat.<br /><br />Looking forward to Avatar this week.
