Hence the important of characterization, atmosphere...all the details. The most important thing about a story is how it's told.

bingo

Not really a Camaro topic but everyone needs to see the movie Avatar and in 3D. I thought it was going to be an awful movie like Starship Troopers but it got so many good reviews I caved. It has an excellent story and the visuals are insane. It was a great movie to go an see during a snow storm. It's 163 minutes long but felt like a half hour. At least until we left and the roads had 5 more inches than when we got their. Good thing for 4x4! I highly recommend it to everyone, but sadly no Bumble Bee appearances. That'l have to wait till TF3.

Agreed absolutely an excellent movie. It's outstanding filmaking. The story is generic, but damn they pulled it off brilliantly.

Coming from an old guy....that movie was fantastic. The special effects were great and the story had a lot of thought and values put into it. I think it has opened the doorway for even better and more exciting movies using this technology.

great movie! But the 3d was stressing my eyes by the end.

I heard there's a lot of violence in this movie. At what age do you think
teens can go see this movie as well?

franknbeans · 12-20-2009, 02:36 PM

there's no more violence in the movie than our old G.I. Joe cartoons.

The hubby and I really want to go. The kids also as well.
My daughter, the 15 yr old is extremely sensitive. I hope she can handle
it, even though she can't wait to see it!
