Avatar

Okay, so finally Leon and I saw Avatar.

If you have not yet seen it .... You should not read on.

I was disappointed that the female in charge had to be the typical bitch.

But I guess to keep it real for both sexes, they also had to make the male in charge an idiot.

I have to admit that I am a sucker for a love story. Any love story.

(Well, maybe not ANY love story. Bridges of Madison County makes me want to throw myself in front of a bus.)

Even a love story between imaginary blue people.

With skinny little bums and lights on their faces.

Tall blue beings with wormies in their hair.

When the blue people were sad, I was sad.

But when dude got his face squashed I couldn't have been happier.

I felt sorry for JakeSully every time he went to sleep in their world and had to wake up in the "real" one.

Oh, except at the end. When he opened his eyes. And you just knew all was as it should be.

I was worried, as movies that get this much hype are usually a disappointment.

But, just on the off chance that my opinion means anything to you....

I give this one a 5/5

Everyone says it's great but I've held out b/c I'm not usually into this genre of movie........I'll take your advice and go see it. Or get it on video.
