it's true, but I still liked the plot. Was it original? No, but 90% of movies since 1990 have not had "original" plots. The Green Mile? Try "The Bible"!.

Doing something like that is really flawed though.  Some of that stuff is generic, like he got hurt by "name".  No way, a hero got hurt by a bad guy!?

True, but I can still appreciate the film for its excellent visuals. I knew I wasn't in for the narrative of the century, I was there for the eye-sex Some films are based around an excellent story, some are made for the spectacle.
Something tells me that you think Michael Bay is a good director.
Something tells me your wrong. I can't say I've liked any of his movies.... usually I detest generic-bang-bang-explosion-tit flash action films. But I still found the CGI in Avatar awesome. I can't even think of a single "action" film i would rate in my top 20 (unless you count LOTR)

If they had a good plot people would have been focusing on that more than the visuals

By making a simple plot, that's somewhat predictable and still leaves room for a twist they let people relax and focus on the details of the movie and just enjoy something thats epic as fuck

That's a good point, if it had an advanced plot you would be focusing too much on that instead of the amazing visuals.

yes Yes YES!!!

Avatar did 3-d right. It was like you were in the room with them, and it was subtle and simply there. None of this 'whoa shit a fucking claw in your fucking face holy shit!!!! it's in your face!!! IN YOUR FACE!!!!!!!!!!' crap.

I saw it in 3D and I didn't really find it particularly impressive. The visuals couldn't make up for the boredom of the plot.

Speed Racer did good looking visuals better.

Miggle can't possibly try harder and yet he still fails to incite even the smallest non-sarcastic rise.

Saw it again, in 3D this time.
Neat but gimmicky, didn't think 3D added anything - it was a distraction more than anything.

Just saw it. I'll have to sleep on my opinion of it. It shouldn't win any script writing or screenplay awards anyway. Formulaic morality fable.

saw it yesterday ( in 3D). Although the story wasnt groundbreaking, the graphics were like nothing I have seen before. Artistically it was possibly the best movie I have seen. Although it was  a bit over whelming  ( so much pretty stufff going on).
