Went to the movies for the first time in atleast 10 years yesterday so we could watch 'Avatar' in RealD 3D... and it was greeeaaat... well worth the $48 it cost us!!!!
The movie itself reminded me alot of the 1992 animated movie 'Fern Gully' (
FernGully: The Last Rainforest (1992))... very similar story line... loved it then and still love it in 'Avatar'. The 3D effects, though mostly subtle, were very cool and the technology behind the whole movie amazing.
Only sad part was how true to actual life the story line is... I hope people can take that away with them and change their perspective accordingly!
Back home after dinner we decided to watch another movie on DVD... our son picked 'Gran Torino' (
Gran Torino (2008)), a movie that's been loaded on our system for months now but I never had the urge to watch. Well, it was ok, eventhough I still can't stand Clint Eastwood or his rasp of a voice.
