not the anime avatar: the legend of aang
that one was. well, not bad, but im not mentioning that today.
the movie avatar.
made by the man [james cameron] who did the epic movie titanic, this is a futuristic show. man in conflict with an indigenous race called navi on Pandora, which is some moon.
made in 3D, i read on the straits times few weeks back on the budget and amout of effort into making its visuals.
so my fam and i went to catch it.
i was wondering what to expect.
and i was swept off my feet.
the feeling of watching that show was like catching a full HD movie on a 50ft cinematic screen.
details were totally clear and crisp.
and the bluefaced friends. completely computer generated, they feel too humanlike.
until we lose sense of whether we are staring at actors or computer made images.
plot was ok, and soundtracks were quite impressive.
i'd like to go on abt all that graphics rendering and visual geekiness, but no one will understand me again :D so... i'll leave it as that.
i'll safely state that it is the new benchmark. a technological breakthrough. for all its eyecandy, rather, eyepopping visuals.

hm. and i like the message intended. of the environment and human behaviour.
no spoilers here xD
