Is watching this movie in 3-D Imax pretty much the same as sitting onstage in the midst of an ecologically-themed Blue Man Group/Cirque du Soliel mashup?

Has anyone linked to this New Yorker Cameron profile yet:

http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/10/26/091026fa_fact_goodyear

From this I learned the surprising (to me) fact that Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow used to be married.

from what i have seen of the two of them in interviews, it kinda doesn't make any sense.

James Cameron always seems like a good idea at the time. It's only upon reflection that we begin to see the error of our ways.

Zoo Snickers (Deric W. Haircare), Friday, 18 December 2009 19:28 (sixteen years ago)

to be fair he has married a lot of ladies.

From that roundtable above, it seems that pretty much all directors are insufferable egotists, but Cameron more than most.

Thinking of going to catch this in a few minutes, since I haven't really been able to do anything today yet and I could use massive visual and caffeine-based stimulation

He'd still be more fun to talk to than Reitman, though.

That probably falls into the "faint praise" category, but still.

cameron is a hilarious cartoon egomaniac, at least from a distance

ice cr?m, Friday, 18 December 2009 20:22 (sixteen years ago)

Fern Gully had a lot of questionable rapping, incl. from Robin Williams.

"Batty Rap"

...

Restless Genital Syndrome (HI DERE), Friday, 18 December 2009 20:31 (sixteen years ago)

From the grand tradition of putting the word "rap" in the title so you know they are, in fact, rapping.

just a moonful of sugar (Abbott), Friday, 18 December 2009 20:32 (sixteen years ago)

Whereas Tone Loc's song in the same movie does not have the word "rap" in the title (otoh it is not good (otooh if is frigging Fern Gully)).

"This movie makes me emo. Thinking about it makes my nose do that chloriney thing you get right before you start crying. I am SO GAY for this movie that I can’t stand it. And you know what? Having finally seen it, I don't even care what the haters have to say. I am a happy meniscus that your spite sauce slides off of. I'm lifted."

that review i just posted was the first one that made me actually want to see this thing

"Avatar" is staggering. It’s seismic. Evolutionarily speaking it is cladogenesis in a thunderclap. Punctuating the balls outta equilibrium. Think about it: You can’t bit torrent this shit. And even if some very industrious pillager cops the glasses and figures out how to do it in the way it was intended to be seen, that person is a hope rapist that should be shot in the face for dream treason because James Cameron and a gang of wizards made this beautiful, beautiful thing for us—in 2009 of all years. We should ALL hold hands about it.

is this lady brent dicrescenzo?

pretty much. whether that's a bad thing depends on you.

I liked this.

kingfish, Saturday, 19 December 2009 00:50 (sixteen years ago)

I watched this at an IMAX theater and thought it was very good. If I happened to be 8, I think it might have fucking blown my mind.

I'm still learning how to read 3d. There are bits where the depth of field is v. shallow, and my eyes are roaming, trying to focus on things that will never come into focus. Recipe for watery eyes, that.

This is how I feel about Kung Fu Shuffle, and that's far from an insult.

Somehow I doubt this is the same level of awesome, tho.

The valuing of the tech over the art is a bit of problem, no?
