first blog in YEARS

Writing my first blog of 2010, I feel it would only be right to do one of my favorite movies of 2009, (soo last year.) Honestly - I went to see Avatar with mixed expectations. I knew it was going to be impressive no doubt about that, but I wasn't sure if it would be my cup of tea or if I would enjoy the mix between the 'real world' and the world within James Cameron's imagination.
However - I can safely say I love everything about Avatar (3D to be precise.) The imagination that went into the film is incredible and I was pleased to see that they set it in the 22nd century, because it could actually be a possibility if the world doesn't blow up before then as beggars keep insisting.
Sam Worthington gave a fantastic performance as the protagonist Jake Sully, and my my he was such a stud as a blue guy. The thing about Avatar, everything was insanely beautiful and peaceful. It made you want to live on Pandora so much and be tall and blue and pretty, planet earth seemed so dull and ruined compared.
I was surprised at how amazingly convincing the performances given by the actors playing the Na'vi people were considering how alien the ways of this made up race were.
In general, I think Avatar was one of the best movies ever made and think James Cameron deserves a ton of credit for all the effort and creativity that went into this fantastic gem of a film. Well, first day back tomorrow so I'd better be off to get some sweet shut eye before I see everyone all bright eye'd and bushy tailed tomorrow at 2, over and out.
