Avatar, Has Sci-fi Found Its Heaven's Gate?
brumgrunt writes "Den Of Geek wonders if James Cameron's Avatar is heading for a fall, and if it will even be a science fiction film, off the back of the previews shown last week. It writes: 'It seems in Avatar that all this gee-whiz science is merely there to draw the "old crowd" in and provide some kind of rationale for a brightly-coloured fantasy-world which reflects the most emetic of the artwork plastered over teenage girls' MySpace pages.'"
Number 9 in Bing.
This just proves once again that Bing is better than Google.
Remember, Bing isn't just a search engine - it's the world's first decision engine.
If you Bing "avatar film dances with wolves", the first result is the IMDB entry for Dances with Wolves. If you're trying to make any sort of decision based on what you queried, Bing will help you make the right one: Go read about, then watch, Dances with Wolves, and stop paying attention to the shit that is Avatar.
I think they're basing it on the director (M Night Shyamalan). They clearly determined he can't write so I guess they're trying to see if he can direct. Knowing him, he's not going to be able to keep his hand off the story though and he's going to add some non-actual-storyline twist of his own that will piss people off. Like ooohhh it turns out, Aang is really a fire bender the whole time. Or ohhh this is all actually happening in a dome like the Truman Show. I have no idea why they're plastering his name on this movie after repeated disasters. It's like they're trying not to get people to see it.

I thought it was the story of a man who uploaded an image to Photobucket, and inlined that image everywhere he went as a kind of personal mark? Then in act two his bandwidth allocation on Photobucket runs out, and so in act three he seeks out a better hosting option...
Bow-ties are cool.
