Avatar releases on home video soon. It will no doubt be much better without the big screen and 3D because now you'll need to focus on the true highlights of the film like the plot, acting, and dialogue. I saw the movie. Twice. Despite having a working brain stem; I enjoyed it. Apparently some other people did, too...and apparently some of those people really, really, really enjoyed it. I mean the unhealthy sort of enjoyment; the sick kind...like grown men who collect Transformers. These people enjoyed Avatar so much that they got sick over it. Mentally sick. They came down with PADS. Now before you read further; I want to suggest you just go ahead and look at porn or surf stumbleupon for a while. You don't want to know what PADS is. You don't. Really. Finding out will do to you as an adult what realizing your parents have had sex does to you as a kid. Do you really want that? PADS stands for Post Avatar Depression Syndrome. No, seriously. Fucking google it. And I warned you. I shouldn't have to spell it out for you; but it boils down to people being so very drawn into the vibrant, magical, happy world shown in 'Avatar' that they just can't come to terms with the gritty, banal, grind of the real world. Now here's the thing. Was it really so glorious? A generic neon rain forest populated by Native American smurfs who are apparently rather gullible jerks where the greatest hero is a naked blue kitty who looks like Brandon Frasier? I know I sure would love to go die of alien-dysentery by age thirty! What this proves is very simple and very apparent. Our world sucks. Our culture and society right this very moment is so goddamn piss awful that people are actually depressed that they have to go back to it after watching AVATAR. When people say "Well, things are rough...but it's not that bad"...welp, we have reached the quintessential 'that bad'.
I loved the glowing forests, wish our forests did that... eating a bunch of shrooms and running through that place would rock. As for the whole PADS thing... I so wish I could say I was shocked... lol Guys who go to war, and watch their buddies heads explode beside them, or hold their heart in their hand while it beats its last beat, those that helped clean up bodies after a disaster or watched a loved one die in an accident, those sorts of things are what you get pts from... If you are so fucked up that you develop such things from watching movies it just shows that on multiple levels, your mind was already fucked and you may want to consider getting a custom fit straight jacket.... You were right though... it would have been better to skip to the porn... lol
I don't get the whole PDS thing either. I'm probably gonna rent the Bluray to test out my new 1080p TV, but only because of the special effects.
This is the tv you should have got... lol http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/01/samsungs-impossibly-thin-3d-tv-tempts-hollywood-producer/ Beyond the tv itself... edited to add from samsung;
relax your eyes youll see the flower, but with 3d tv you will not have to strain your eyes to see it.. It will freak some people out in the future .. ps tile and set as desktop bg.
I hate those things... I never see shit in them.... I like to blame the fact that my eyes aren't in sync with each other... lol
I think those are called magic eye or something like that. You can also cross your eyes a little and see what I call the inverse image. The inverse image for this pic looks freakier than the flower. .
The theatre industry in the U.S. jacked up prices considerably a few weeks ago. The rationale was the popularity of movies such as Avatar and also the need to invest more money to make all theatres 3-D capable. .
I haven't seen Avatar. I really have no desire to. My inlaws gave my husband a bootleg and I told him to get it out of my house and not to bring stolen shit home again. So that may be why I will probably never watch it.
i can't watch 3D movies. i'm feeling completely left out. i have a lazy eye and all that 3d shit doesn't work for me and gives me an appalling headache.
