Seriously, "How to Train Your Dragon" told a very similar story in a much better manner than Avatar did. It just wasn't as simple as "Vikings are evil".

man, tons of hate. Is it suddenly cool to hate it??

In terms of a film/story, it's ok. However, in terms of the moviegoing experience, I think it was the most fun I've had. Seeing it in 3D in theaters, being completely captivated by the effects, and having a decent/ok story were enough to make it more than awesome IMO

Reminds me of a cool theme park ride, only it lasts 2 hours

Its more the themes than the plot or the visuals. And the themes are manipulative as frick.

No, people hated it right out of the block. It took me a little while.

Whoa, I didn't say the whole board, but it was definitely a 50/50 split. There were plenty of vocal haters. There was even a stickied thread.

Something I wish they would do for GoT.

I could be wrong. Maybe I just remember the hate mre than the fap.

I was willing to give it a good chance, and despite all my comments I stand by the fact that Avatar is an incredibly effective cinematic experience. I was stoned to the absolute Bejeez and I loved it on my first viewing. Is it an incredible film though? No, no it isn't. Its a manipulative film that is gorgeous to look at, especially when high.

I like this movie. The visuals are absolutely breathtaking, especially on first viewing on the big screen.

But it's not and never was the best movie ever made.
