Old old Rehash (spoilers)

Rating: 6/10 (19 December 2009)

I saw it on 2D yesterday. Let me say two things here, this is NOT the Cameron who made T2 and Aliens .and maybe all those special effects are worth the money spent on the admission ticket. I think Cameron made this movie for the studios(FOX){he's on a fixed salary from Fox;and last I read ,it had many leading zeros}}whereas T2, aliens were movies that he made for himself and there's the subtle difference. The story has potential but is not expertly delivered. I mean why spend zillions on hi-tech labs with neurosynaptic links with human hosts when an hour later ,all you have to do is let the trigger happy corporate honchos blast the navi village out of oblivion;why not just do it even before the first brick of such a lab even gets laid....sorry story here is not really consistent. Cameron has not shown anything that has not been shown to audiences in the last 15 -20 years in Hollywood.
1)robot suit fighters = robot suit donned by Sig. weaver in aliens
2)battle of choppers (hi-Tech) v/s beasts and rodents(lo-tech) = starship troopers.
3)tough talking female chopper pilot = from 'Pvt. Vasquez'fame in aliens
4)trigger happy corporate honchos = same stuff as in 1985 aliens,anything new?
5)literally the 'Red leader' squadron act at the end (rebels taking on the Imperial might) = star wars
and many more ;Cameron is out of ideas and has just reimplemented those great ideas he made up in his hey days. Avatar is no way close to T2 ,Aliens but did I say ,hey it's worth the penny..... just to gape and awe at the Sfx. used.
