The only good thing about this Avatar was a decent videogame tie-in.
It’s pretty clear what’s going on here - they deliberately made the blandest, most derivative story they could, so you can turn off your brain. I guess that might work for porn films and to some degree for normal movies too, but I can’t get behind using blandness so excessively.
The CGI ain’t saving that. (I don’t even like those aliens personally.) I find that this thing and the sequel being the most grossing films of all time, to be an insult to filmmaking and especially storytelling.
