Avatar review - revised

Rating: Null/10 (10 January 2010)

Last minute: James Cameron nominated to Best Director?!?! How about best Best Marketing Person category for Golden Globes? I do pity anyone who thought that Avatar was worthy to be voted for in the top 250 movies of all time. You have been brainwashed real well.
Pity all of you who saw more in the movie than special effects. Avatar is like empty calories meal - you get satisfied, fat, and unhealthy. It brings NOTHING to the cinematography's history. James C. is a hack.
James C. is incapable of creating an original screenplay; he's good at exploiting of actual stories (Titanic, for example), but creating screenplays is his very weak side. He is not the "King of the World"; he is a B-quality director, not able to direct movies above B level. He just doesn't know what makes a classical movie, and yes, with my 20+ years experience as a movie watcher and real life experience, I could teach him a thing or two about directing timeless movies. Example: Peter Jackson and the trilogy of the Lord of the Rings - the original content (story by J.R.Tolkien, which I read when I was in 5th grade of elementary school), is a cinematographic experience 1,000s of times way above the over-hyped Avatar.
James C. stating he is the next Stanley Kubrick; he may as well declare himself the next Jesus Christ, and get the same level of credibility. He is a vain hack with overblown ego. Working with "yes" men has its disadvantages, measured in $ when the flick goes public.
I paid $13.5 for IMAX 3D version of the movie, plus another $13.5 for my company. I would like my money refunded since there was no artistic value, only marketing value that fell way under the created expectations. The movie industry will never refund your money for inadequate consumer experience.
This is the biggest problem with Hollywood these days - these leeches, considering self "kings of the world", will suck money out of you promising you everything including the kitchen sink, and grossly delivering .
Anyone voting for Avatar to let it be in 250 most popular movies is in my mind a person lacking ability of retrospective or simply immature enough to rate the movie where it belongs compared to other movies.
Poor victims of marketing machine and following the herd, a.k.a. the majority of society - the conformists, who would not dare to go to the movies to see this hallow flick, for the fear of being ostracized by friends and coworkers.
It's one of the movies I will not watch more than once. There are 100s of movies I can watch over and over again, but James C. just doesn't get the difference between the 2 kinds of movies. The difference it's pretty universal for all kind of audience. I could provide consulting services if they wouldn't hurt egos. I have watched 1,000s of movies in my life (25+ years), and I know what captivates the audience, and what makes the audience want to stare at a window for 2 hours without paying any admission money, and remaining with better experience than being a witness to as such painful and expensive experience as Avatar.
PS. Thank you for finding this review unuseful. You just proved to be oblivious to sci-fi movies history of the last 60+ years. If you think that JC invented something new with his "Acr*ptavar", you are the non-critical "i'll bend over and take it however you sell it to me" kind of reviewer.
