I, too, was reluctant to see Avatar because even though I love most animated films, something about this one didn't sit right with me...something to do with the faces with those big eyes. I didn't look into the movie at all and when my husband wanted to use free tickets on the movie, even then, I declined (we saw Sherlock Holmes instead). He finally put his foot down and it was the next movie we saw and I ended up really enjoying it. I thought the effects would bother me, but I became totally immersed in them and the story. Yes, it was predictable and the ending was simply too fairy tale, but it did entertain me. At one point though, I was sitting there wondering if the audience in my theater was actually getting the message that they are part of this military/industrial complex that destroys whatever gets in its way? And always wins, unlike in this movie.
