I never let reviews inform what movies I see.

I never let general public opinion inform what movies I see.

Avatar is my favorite show of all time.

I'm skipping this movie.

I am so bummed by the response to this movie, as I have heard nothing positive about it. I waited to develop my second-hand opinion until I heard the thoughts of the fans of the series. Apparently those people hate the movie even more than the neophytes because they know the glories of the show and how good it COULD have been.

I really hate that MNS did this. I still LOVE Unbreakable, but my opinion of him as a filmmaker is as low as it can get. I despised The Happening.

I wonder how it would have turned out it they'd gotten someone like Chris Columbus (speaking of Harry Potter). There are certainly people who could have done this story justice.
