I have terrible eyesight and wear glasses - much to my dismay my friend bought the 3D tickets, so I figured I'd just be in for a 2.5 hour headache. but for whatever reason, the little 3d glasses worked perfectly over my own.

Anyways, my friend is in the military and had the exact same reaction as Cannoli. I just enjoyed the movie. Predicatble? yes. preachy? of course. but it was fun.

Avatar is basically Return of the Jedi, at least the part on Endor. But less militarily plausible Cannoli - 19/12/2009 02:22:35 AM 1106 Views
