Im in awe at the haters in here. Like James Cameron did something personally to you. The movie was a great fun story with beautiful effects. Saying things like "The first is that Cameron never utilizes his technology well, I would have preferred the film to just be flat and I honestly don't think I'd miss anything at all. I don't really appreciate having to pay like...4 more bucks for a movie ticket when the movie doesn't truly take advantage of this "amazing" technology. "
Are dumb on many levels. Starting with, you dont have to see the movie in 3D, its optional. And 3D technology, the literal limits of a flat image being projected into 3D is that there can only be two depths, one for each eye. Your brain gets confused and slams it into a single image. James Cameron didnt do that to you nature did by only giving us two eyes. You want true 3D, you will have to wait until they can project a 3rd dimension, an image that actually has volume.
Everyone who gave a reason why they hated it so far appear to be complete wankers. This movie does an exemplary job at everything it sets out to to. If thats not something you dont like. Dont blame the movie or James Cameron, after all, if you dont like dogs, its makes a particularly bad argument when you say things like "I hate that dog for being a dog and not being a cat, because I like cats".
