Late Night Musings on 'Avatar'
I’ve seen Avatar 4 times.  Every time was in 3D.  It’s not that I don’t like limiting myself to two dimensions, it’s just every time I saw it it was with people who wanted to see it in 3D.  I didn’t even particularly want to go every time.  Thats about 10 hours of James Cameron…  It’s a lot of time to think about the wonders of the movie, and the flaws. ...
