Obligatory Avatar review..
..because everyone else is doing it.
So if you are such a Disney fan as I am, plot-wise Avatar is in no way anything special, but if you are a big cinematography / SFX fan as most people seem to be, you’re going to think it is awesome. Also 3d.
While on the topic of 3d, I can now cross ‘watching 3d movies’ off my list of things I am afraid of doing. Strange phobia, some might say, but as a wee little one (yes I was young when 3d film was being invented) I saw a movie about pirates in 3d. It was very scary and yes, the rating of PG would’ve been sufficient if it was 2d, but it wasn’t and I had nightmares about spiders that night.
So anyway, over that fear because yesterday after the trailers (and an advertisement of Alice in wonderland where a grinning cat was RIGHT THERE) the 3dness didn’t bother me all too much. I may even go see another one in 3d.
I also watched doctor who - the end of time (Christmas special) and lets just say that I had to suppress a gasp at the cliffhanger of that episode (will January 2nd not come any sooner?) because woah. And I love love that the master came back, he could be close to my favorite villain of the series and John Simm just does insane!master fantastically. I am also really curious to what’s going to happen with the Donna/Wilfred arc, cause I really like Donna. Even though I wanted to punch her when she first appeared on the show (and wasn’t at all impressed by The Catherine Tate show) she really has grown to be my favorite new-series companion.
