🍿 Avatar, 2009 - β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

Most of the live-action scenes look like they were shot for the SyFy channel. The narration is dumb and schlocky. The villains are tropey and over the top. The main character is more bland than toast without butter.

Somehow this still struck a chord in me despite it’s very clear failings. I think something about Pandora is so magical. And the message is more relevant than ever. Wish I could have seen this in theaters, but it does put a fire under me to get out and see the second in theaters before it leaves.
