Favorite Movie of All Time

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2009)

The movie was absolutely amazing. Going in, I was a bit skeptical, being that the mineral was called "Unobtainium", which I found to be a bit laughable and had me worrying that the movie was going to be a bit of a joke with names. However, the movie did not disappoint. Pandora was a vibrant and living world, every single plant was designed beautifully and felt almost real. The Na'vi were also designed extremely well, and the CG made them appear to be real in all respects. The biggest fear I had was the 3-D aspect, what I expected to be the gimmick, where I would have an arrow fly by my face and water splash at me. This was not the case. it was truly immersive. I felt that I was looking out a window and seeing another world, one in which these people and creatures were actually existing.
All in all, James Cameron has made another masterpiece, and I can not wait for the extended materials.
I guess that is what happens when you spend 4 years in production, 6 in creating the 3-D cameras, 15 creating the story, and a lifetime imagining the world.
