well, the whole storyline of "Avatar" is exposed in the trailer. There's not much depth in it. Still, I'm gonna see it tomorrow!  Grin

I watched Avatar. In terms of effects and stuff it is really amazing. The story is like a futuristic Pocahontas... so not very special. But in general, the movie is very good, and manages to grasp and maintain your attention from the begining to the end.

Oh yes! 3D format is great! Exept for the glasses... they really hurt... but that's because in Brasil they don't dare make decent glasses, because they don't want to spend money on it. Damn f***ers...

well, 3D glasses were big enough, fortunately, the story was as shallow as possible and I SOOOOOOOOOO  enjoyed myself! Wink

Watch it in 3D. It's worth the pain.

- Saw Avatar... have to say was pleasantly surprised.  The story line is basically been beat to death but twisted just enough to not be too predictable.  Of course I liked this movie better when it was called "Dances with wolves"... shameless Native American allegory's going on lol.  All in all...I recommend it

nothing is better than Avatar. It has shown us the future of video games... some 20 years from now we will all have hi-tech coffins to sleep in while living in the game world...  Wink

Actually, what are you talking about was already shown in "Surrogates" and somehow in "Gamer" and it's awful future to my mind Grin

As for "Avatar" - i don't like it as a movie. It's awesome cartoon, and they invest a lot of money in that technologies that fasten the release and made that cartoon much more realistic.
But as a movie - it sucks ... Cool

check this out:

http://movies.yahoo.com/news/movies.ap.org/vatican-says-avatar-no-masterpiece-ap

on topic: a few years back there was a movie called "EXistenz" by David Cronenberg. You might wanna check it out. Also, I've read somewhere that they are filming Dan Simmon's Hyperion Cantos!  Shocked

I read the book and watched the movie. After reading the book, the movie seemed very pale and I have never watched it again, although I love Rutger Hauer's role in that movie. Like many of Dick's other books, this one also gives a feeling of not being completely finished (or my English version lacks a few last pages Cheesy). Still, him being one of my favourite writers, I'd recommend you his best book "Ubik". That one is perfect and completely finished.  Cool Also, the you might wanna read/watch "Scanner Darkly".
Shocked
Just finished "A Scanner Darkly"... Amazing... amazing... a...ma...zing...
Couldn't find "Ubik" in any store... I'm gonna start "A Man in the High Castle" soon, already have it waiting at home, but now I started reading the Bernard Cornwell's grail trilogy. I already read the first book. Really, really nice medieval fantasy.
I also want to read Dick's "Flow my Tears, the Policeman said", but can't find it in the stores...

"A Confederacy of Dunces" - John Kennedy Toole. One of the most hilarious books ever. Demands an extreme knowledge of English slang (if you plan to read it in English like I did) but it's worth it.

Ahh, and the ending of "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" is very strange indeed... I also felt it hadn't finished when I read it... but it's awesome in its own way.
