i know there’s a blaq/latina alien noble savage with a soulful planet, and rapacious whitey wants to *knowingly* destroy it all for Gold. and didn’t they call the Gold unobtanium? cute. might be misremembering
but it’s not that it’s unoriginal, it’s boring. it drags |

The biggest plot hole was that humans would just nuke them all from space and take the unobtanium because during an existential crisis no one cares about the blue people rights or whatever bullshit springs to mind.

Movies like Bladerunner (both original and 2077) barely made a profit while absolute garbage like this basically printed money because everyone went to see it.

Date: December 30th, 2025 11:37 AM Author: silver private investor The first one was a pretty solid family/kids movie. It had the standard bloat and cringy dialog from a James Cameron movie but that shit seems to work for him. If you look at it as a serious, adult film, though, it does not hold up at all. It's a beautiful movie with ideas that would hit home for kids in elementary or jr. high. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5815441&forum_id=2",#49549710) |

These movies are bloated and the plot is mediocre at best, but when shit goes down they're amazing movies - especially on the big screen in 3d.
There isn't a Marvel movie that has close to the action staging as the 5th worse set piece in Avatar. |

Or take the Na'vi to Earth and fuck with humans on their turf. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5815441&forum_id=2",#49549874) |
