Actually I still found it enjoyable but the FACT remains it ripped off an older film in about every major detail and was one of disneys weaker films,good still but not the best by any means not even close.
The man gave us such amazing films as The Abyss,Terminator series(T1-T2) Aliens,Titanic(ok love story was weak in that film but his famed attention to detail still made it brilliant) While Avatar he didn't do much for detail and used a rehashed plot a gimmicky 3d thing that has been around forever. He just gives the impression he is getting lazy and only getting the same hype as before based on rep and his famous hype factor.
District 9 is much more original a better made film despite being on a fraction of the budget. Not saying I enjoyed District 9 more just saying it was a better film for the sci fi genre of 2009. I enjoyed Star trek the most even though I found much of the plot very silly but still remained very entertaining. Avatar all i am saying is still an enjoyable film but was not even the best film in the sci fi genre of 2009.(You also might want to check out Moon) It's just that Camerons name and rep hypes it up so much people shat themselves over it. I am just looking at it from a non biased objective POV and wish people would stop hyping it as the "best" it maybe many peoples favorite film this year but too many of them mix that up with best.
EDIT: on your NBA analogy,don't forget back then Wilt didn't have a 3 point line,there wasn't 3 point lines back then. |
i loved District 9, but AVATAR was alot better, and despite having a normal story had alot of things people have never seen before.. very original in ideas
