The story...It was Dances with pocahontas in the Emerald Fern Gully... not a bad story at all just don't expect a lot of twists.

BUT OMG THE VISUALS... This movie gave me eye candy Diabetes it was so sweet. It is the closest thing I have ever felt to a true VR immersion experience... Saw it in IMAX 3D... and that movie is a technological out of body experience. I could almost feel the planet the way it was filmed and special effects, I could almost smell the forest. I have never seen CGI that pulled off the "real world" effect so well (up until this movie Peter Jackson had come closest with LOTR.)

It almost rewrites ones expectations for what visuals your brain becomes hungry for... Kind of like eating the best food you have ever tasted visually, and then having to go back to a bologna sandwich again.

DAMN...that description of the most technological out-of-body experience makes me feel really bad for anyone that decided to do any shrooms or acid before heading out to see it.

Fucking awesome, you sir, are still amaizing :rofl:.

I haven't seen Avatar but Boshy has and she thought it was marginally cute...but she kept having to sneak out of the theatre to call me on her cell phone because she didn't really care for it, just thought you know, there was some cute stuff about it and really good graphics as she put it.

You can laugh at me if you want but this movie made me cry. It just triggered some kind of emotion in me. The realness of it got to me I guess.

I'm a jaded bitter old crone and I don't cry easily.

I was sitting there with my kids (one teenage and one college age who would never stop teasing me for crying) so had even more incentive not to cry, but the tears just rolled down my face, couldn't stop them!

and I know the story was very simple, but I feel like anyone who wasn't touched by the interconnectedness of everything just really didn't *get* the movie at all.

I've seen it twice in 3d and want to see it in IMAX 3D now.

Well, I finally saw it and realized I have seen it before.. many times. Yes, the visuals were fantastic... way to setup a premade video game market... but the story and dialog were old and tired. There is a reason this didn't win best picture. If it were not for the stunning CGI affects... this movie would not have filled one theator.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

    • I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.  
    • You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.
    • Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
