Once with my friends, then I had to take my brother, and then my girlfriend. None listened to reason when I told them that Avatar is actually a very, extremely mediocre movie.

Also I am fairly sure I am not crazy at all but you must have not seen a lot of the world if you were impressed by what you saw in Avatar. As I said, there was just one impressive scene and it lasted all of 10 seconds, and maybe less.

The movie was a great movie and we simply have different tastes. But, your's are obviously not along the more common as the movie did so immensly well and very few people disliked it or would call it 'mediocre'. Was it an underlying common theme, sure, was it an entirely different imagry and presentation that was really interesting, definitely. Did it have some corny points, ummm 'unobtainium'? yes, corny. But it was not mediocre.

It was a shit movie with expensive as hell visuals, in fact most people I know and who saw it with me would also call it mediocre. If anything people jsut went to see it just to see what all the hubub was all about than to actually see a good movie. Also presentation is great in a movie but it does not make a crappy movie good, that's why just about every great movie doesn't have any of these flashy visuals.

Thankfully as seen above, this 3D fad may be coming to a close and I can't wait for it to happen sooner.

You can't use your group of friends to argue your point. After all they are your friends and more than likely share your common tastes in stuff. All my friends loved the movie and agree the 3D was the way to go.

The movie was interesting and entertianing. Like I said, underlying common plot, but not a bad one and the way it was expressed was simply 'wow'.
