Well, my husband and I trekked 45 mins 3x since this movie release just to see it on the IMAX. Everytime we went, it was sold out.Finally,we had the bright idea to purchase the 11:45 show here to gaurantee our tickets. Best decision we made, as we were about to give up and just see it regular 3D.Yeah, it is true, there was not much of a story or plot. And yes, same story we've heard before. BUT, James Cameron did a wonderful job with the effects. Even at 1 in the morning, I was wide awake, eyes glued to my 3D glasses taking it all in. The IMAX screen was HUGE. I really felt like I was inside AVATAR. Awesome movie, great way to end 2009, I recommend this movie to EVERYONE. But of course, to do the movie justice, please see it in IMAX 3D
