Saw "Avatar" last night.

I'll go ahead and say that it was a good movie. For how long it was, it definently kept my attention the whole time. But I also have to note that James Cameron basically regurgitated the plot of Titanic into a sci-fi love story/thriller.

Two lovers meet from different worlds (rich girl/poor guy, human/navi), and attempt to overcome the shortcomings of man.

I could go into more depth about the similarities, but if you've seen both movies, I think you can see what I'm talking about. I don't fault Cameron for doing this, both movies made over a billion dollars. Just noting it.

i think Dances with Wolves is a much better comparison.. but with TEH BESTEST visuals and Most Epic Scene of All Scenes..

Beyond that, how many times has a movie been made where dude goes undercover and then has a change of heart about the people he infiltrated? You get the "I was supposed to stab yous in the back, but then I got to know you" line, very original IMO. But the movie overall was very good, it did keep you interested all the way through, there was never really a good time to say "Its kinda slow right now, Im runnin to the restroom"...

Evidently people have had suicidal tendencies from this movie. When I saw previews for it, I thought it looked stupid. There's some serious poo over this though. Crazy. People need to get out more. That day to day grind must be a killer *thinks to himself: stay in school as long as possible*

    • No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.
    • We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks. 
    • I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
