Hello, Livejournal, It's Been Awhile
I do not understand how I can HATE everything I see or hear about the Avatar movie* and yet be so INCREDIBLY EXCITED ABOUT IT.
It's like Watchmen--even though I did not like the movie, I was excited for the DVD and bought it because OMFG WATCHMEN. Even though I was disappointed in the comic, I waited anxiously for the movie's release! To this day, I will occasionally rewatch the trailer and be filled with this sensation of overwhelming awe--the same overwhelming awe that I experience when watching the Avatar trailers, even though I hate virtually** every aspect of them, from the music to the voiceovers to the scenes!
I think I must be in love with the IDEA of an Avatar movie or something, because there's no other explanation for this confusing mix of emotions.
*Not James Cameron's or whoever's shit. I have an irrational aversion to that movie and refuse to see it.
**The only aspect of the trailers I do like is the bending effects. SO PRETTY 0_0
