Anyone here see it? I heard it was pretty bad. It was very predictable they told me.

I heard of folks getting sick from 3 hours of 3D. I think I'll wait until the small screen, no 3D.

A buddy of mine at work is a movie NUT. Seriously. He does the torrent thing and has movies before they come out. He has over 2,500 burned DVDs, and 2 terabyte external drives full of movies. He connects flash drives to a special box (like a Roku box) that indexes AVI files and plays them to the TV via Component or HDMI connection.
Movie. Nut.
Really!
He says this is a must see movie, and I should run out now to see it in the theater. He took his kids and they loved it as well (6 & 8 years old). He did say it was long, so be ready to go the long haul for a nearly 3 hour movie experience. But he says the movie is so engrossing, you don’t really realize you’ve been there for 3 hours.

I might go see it in 3D this week. DW will stay at home as this type of flick is not her bag. TT says I.

Well if you must ware 3D glasses I won't bother as for me that would be a waste, one eye it is impossible. Now if I could see it and enjoy it without the glasses then I would see it in a heart beat. I've talked to about 30 people so far that have seen it and not a single bad word about it all give it a glowing review. If I can see it using my own eyes I will see it in the movies if not I will buy it on Blu-Ray.

Our theaters are running two versions, one regular, one 3-d.

It's going to be 3D for me. I haven't seen that since I was a kid.

I just saw Avatar in 3D. It was, as mentioned earlier, predictable. However, the combination of the characters, graphics, and 3D was absolutely awesome. The time flew by. During the first hour I kept taking the glasses off to see the difference between 2 and 3D, but then I settled in and flat enjoyed the movie. There are very few movies that I would watch more than once ( A Christmas Carol, Apocalypse Now, Debby Does Dallas, etc. lol) and Avatar is now on the list. When that big ass tree came down I went straight to the brink of sensory overload but did not cross the line. Terrific, fun flick.

There is both a 2D and a 3D version. The 3D without the glasses is partially blurry.

3D costs more at the ticket office too.

I can't stand wedging those 3d glasses between my face and my specs. I still want to see Avatar. I'll probably be stuck with the 3d version though, my girls are all excited for the 3d.
That's quite a trilogy you've got there. Can you combine them somehow?There are very few movies that I would watch more than once ( A Christmas Carol, Apocalypse Now, Debby Does Dallas, etc. lol) and Avatar is now on the list.

It looks cool but I dont really care if I see it or not.....
That said, I felt the same about the first Transformers movie..... which I fell in love with and RAN to see #2 at the theatre in IMAX.....
So, if we can we may take the kids to see it... if not, they love movies just as much at home.

If Buzz can't I sure can with Debby Does Dallas at Christmas singing Carols before the Apocalypse when she turns into an Avatar.

Are you counting each time you start Deb, because you watch Debbie Does flicks in 5 to 10 minute ... spurts.

DW and I go to movies once in a blue moon <VBG>. This was disposable income well spent!

Just got home from seeing it and all can say is I can't wait for the sequel to it next. Worth every sent of the $8 it cost my wife and I to go see it. Didn't know the first run of the day regardless of the normal price is $4 a person. I have to keep this in mind in the future as a couple of the movies they showed attractions for looked good too.

We just saw this for Percy's Birthday the other day and we both very much enjoyed it! I thought the graphics were awesome and the story line kept my interest for the whole 3 hrs I would definately be interested in seeing a sequel! It definately brought movie making to a whole new level in our opinions.

This is a different kind of 3D that was developed for this movie. The 3D glasses we got were plastic frames, and fit quite well over the top of my glasses.
