First Review of Avatar Special Edition

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the more-blue-giant-chicks-please dept.

brumgrunt writes "Den Of Geek has the first review of James Cameron's extended cut of Avatar. Its thoughts? 'As opposed to, say, the extended cuts of Aliens, Terminator 2 or The Abyss, the new scenes add little of particular note to everything we've already seen.'"

    There's really a trend in going all "That movie sucks!" against every popular movie, and I'm getting tired of it.

    That's pretty much anything popular ever, at least on the internet.

    For example, just tossing this out there

    I like the following

    -Rap music
    -Halo 3
    -Team fortress 2
    -Sex
    -The Matrix
    -Inception
    -Beer

    Anyone care to comment on... hang on, just got a text that TF2 is extremely overrated and blah blah blah.. and oh, I've just been tapped on the shoulder and someone is telling me that sex is overrated. My wife.

    With a few minor exceptions, this review was a rehash of prior reviews.

    I'm pretty sure "The Second Coming of Citizen Kane" would be a terrible movie that would be universally reviled. Would Kane be an undead revenant trying to find his sled or something? Or would it turn out he faked his death? In any case, it would be a poorly written opportunistic sequel rushed out by Hollywood to capitalize on the popularity of the original.

    a terrifying journey into a living hell of depravity

    They are covertly inserted into the Obama administration by Steve Jobs with a mission to replace all the XP machines with iPads. Captured by Steve Ballmer, they have an "exit interview" in a room filled with thousands of "smart chairs" which have only 640K of memory and are constantly "squirting".
