While the story lags behind the technology in scope and depth the movie as a whole is the best movie experience I have ever had in a theater. I'm a huge fan of old dialogue driven movies and thought CG a minor detail compared to acting and script, but Avatar has changed my mind about the future of cinema. A part of me is subconsciously aware that the script is lackluster, but the rest of me is enthralled and utterly engrossed in the complete, captivating Cameron phenomena that is playing before my eyes. With movies like Avatar giving us glimpses of whats to come, the future looks bright for movies lovers.
