I'm not gonna yuck anyone's yum. If a person likes these movies (as clearly, lots of people do), good for them. I saw the first avatar in the theater however the fuck long ago that movie came out now. It was pretty, and as you say, boring as hell. It'll be the only Avatar film I ever see.

I was really unimpressed by the first one, but found the second one to be surprisingly enjoyable. Nothing mind-blowing or anything, but it was entertaining.
