#AvatarTheWayOfWater??is tracking for $150M-$175M opening weekend domestically

I thought it didn't open until mid-December

Everybody loves to shite on Avatar and I get that the story was shite and this one more than likely will as well, but seeing Avatar in the theaters for the first time was probably my greatest experience at the movies. The visuals were mesmerizing in 3D, and that alone is worth seeing a movie with a meh story.

My gripe was that they never let the shots track for long enough to appreciate all of the detail. As soon as I would get a fix for what I was looking at, the shot would change.

My thought leaving the first one was, "Well, if they ever set their minds to making a proper Warcraft movie, it would be kind blowing if it looked like this."

I get that the visuals are great, again I’ll admittedly see this in the theater, but really? Compared to Lord of the Rings for the first time? Yes, it’s a great cinematic experience, but no it’s not the best. Gravity was better than Avatar on the big screen. That one blew my face off seeing it in IMAX, but Avatar was simply cool visuals. If you’ve seen a film like Princess Mononoke (probably in the Top Three most visually stunning animated movies ever) and know Cameron ripped that off, deliberately or otherwise, it takes you out of it.

+1 gravity was amazing in 3D

I’ll put it this way, I hope this movie is a big enough success that they bring back Gravity to IMAX for a February release. Yeah, even if you have the most basic understanding of physics and space it doesn’t make any sense (unlike Interstellar), but as a big screen experience, it’s hard to beat.

Will summarize the PLOT:

White men BAD
Blue cats GOOD
Gay/Lesbian Blue cat couples
Nature/Climate Change/Diversity mumbo jumbo
Big Fight
Blue cat female saves big dude
Blue cats WIN
