First Review of Avatar Special Edition

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.'"

And that's not to say the plot of Avatar was good, just that they at least seemed to resist their urges to add pointless gotchas and plot twists.

And why should they? They managed to resist the urges of telling a good story or develop any characters beyond the pointless plot and one dimensional characters needed to glue all the computer graphics into a cinema product.

If you have ever played with a cat or dog and having it chasing after the dot from a laser pen, you would see that Avatar was much the same. It was simply something shiny that distracted you for a few hours, nothing more.

Avatar is a great example of how lacking Hollywood and other medias is of any kind of substance, their drive is to find the lowest possible amount that will still get the masses to buy their drivel.
