Probably either something Kaufman, P.T. Anderson or Mulholland Drive.

I don't have a favorite one, there's a bunch of movies I've enjoyed, this one wasn't among them.

Finally saw it. The 3D stuff was unique and more of a bonus - I can take it or leave it, the story recycled from Dances With Wolves and The Last Samurai. BUT, it was without a doubt, one of the greatest films I've ever seen. I never once felt I was watching a CG film, it looked that realistic to me. But more so, the facial expressions pretty much sold it... when the giant tree came down and they're all screaming and crying, how could you not get choked up!?

I can't wait until the Blu-Ray release, so I can catch all the little stuff I probably missed the first time. Besides, eye-candy like that has infinite replay value.

Eh, it's not that bad but it's one of James Cameron's worst films. "Bbbbut it looks amazing." Give a guy $300 million and just about anyone can make a great looking movie. Transformers with a healthy coat of shiny new paint. With that said, if I was 12 I would have loved the shit out of this.

Really? I find CGI-heavy movies like this usually age really badly. The LotR movies have gotten to that point now where I can't watch them anymore without noticing something wrong with the CGI all the time. That's part of the reason why I'm not interested in Avatar. Ten years from now, this movie will look laughably bad.

I honestly think it`s the shittest movie I`ve seen other than Nightbeast. Nightbeast is at least funny though. I wouldn`t watch Avatar again for anything less that $100

This is so far from true. The G.I.Joe movie cost $175 million and was shit visually. You think another $125 M would have fixed that? Cameron can do something no one else can. Even the LOTR movies look fucking retarded post-Avatar. I tried. It's just hippies walking through fields the whole time.

In the end of the Battle of Pelennor Fields the ghosts are swarming the elephants and are moving faster than all of the rest of the CGI. It was obviously a mistake and I'm amazed it got through. But yeah, there are lots of other examples. At this point I can only watch the first movie without laughing.
