Why does this board hate Avatar for a generic storyline whilst praising Marvel and Star Wars films for the same.
It's been confusing me to say the least. I just watched Avatar for the first time yesterday, although I could see where it was going, I thought it was well executed. Yes I get the arguments; "it's Pocahontas" in space. So what? Does it make the film worse; no. I've seen a thread stating that the Obi Wan film should be like Seven Samurai. And if they do that, I can gurantee it will be highly praised by this sub. Every Marvel film has basically the same hero's journey, and you can see everything that happens from a mile away. The only film that seemed to deviate from this was Civil War and that's it. So what gives? Why does Avatar get the hate while others get the praise.
internet hates it because marvel and star wars are popular/geeky and instantly recognizable. so they get a free pass but since avatar isn't based on some shit brand it gets all the criticism.
Ethan Collins
What was the purpose of his character?
Daniel Phillips
I expected better out of Cameron I don't expect much out of comics
Ryder Gutierrez
Did you know!?!?
That the movie Avatar is about the invasion of a fantasy planet with blue people...
To act as a minor antagonist against the hero? It raises the stakes for Jake's acceptance into the tribe and also provides extra drama/tension for the romance.
Oh, you were just fishing for a cuck joke? Lame. Don't be a fag.
Joshua Sanders
it was made to show off the capabilities of 3d fillmmaking. it succeeded in that endeavor. i don't like the movie either but you can't say it's complete shit when it accomplished what it was intended to do.
Blake Cooper
Had far more in common with the western clash with the natives throughout the americas, really. Avatar was essentially Dances With Wolves in space, with blue aliens replacing the native americans.
Benjamin Long
Of African what?
David Walker
>praising Marvel and Star Wars
What fucking board are you one?!
Noah Nguyen
on*
Lincoln Lewis
Based Lucas made movies of CGI aliens and worlds way before Cuck Cameron, and his movies were far more original and memorable.
Cooper Butler
lol reddit
Luke Martin
Is this your first day on Sup Forums? We fucking hate Marvlel and Star Wars outside of the OT
Connor Gray
>hate Avatar >praising Marvel and Star Wars
we must be on different boards. 90% of the user hate marvel 50% are cameron bros and like avatar 100% of the user hate everything
already looking forward to avatar 2
Cameron Watson
I like avatar and hate capeflicks. I get complained at every time I state that capeflicks are total shit.
I suspect its pretend. Like how Sup Forums is "christian".
Adam Diaz
>Star Wars outside of the OT fuck off with your children fairytales
Cameron Reyes
Cameron made the superior version back with Dances with Wolves. Avatar, much like the Star Wars prequels, was a pale imitation.
Camden Carter
It looked amazing in the cinema even if the story is recycled.
Ayden Gutierrez
Sorry, that should read Costner made the superior version.
Jayden Scott
It looked fake as shit even then
Fuck off reddit
Eli Martin
If I wanted to show off how foul-smelling my shit was, I could smear it all over your face and body and your retching would be proof that I had succeeded. It'd still be shit, tho.
Thomas Baker
You are underage b&. You never seen it in the cinema.
Jace Rogers
I have no beef with cinematography or recycled story. It's implementation was poor.
It blatantly misrepresented the benefits of a MASSIVELY advanced culture (light beer and blue jeans? For real?) while romanticising the shit out of a native culture.
Don't even get me started on how compatible two cultures from two completely unique evolutionary trees turned out to be.
Nolan Nelson
The same posters hate both, I assure you. It's just that the normies and nerds with bad taste who visit this board only remember things that are recent, and so only recent things will have autistic white-knight fanboys.
This is one of the first characteristics of being a pleb: you consume films and quickly forget them. This means that the pleb is able to consume the same thing over and over again in with only minor tweaks and still enjoy it.
Zachary Johnson
You are focusing on the wrong part of the film. >Beautiful alien planet >Giant blue cat pussy >Natives vs mechas >It had cool effects
The story itself has been done better and in other places.
Juan White
Not an argument.
Caleb Fisher
Nailed it in one.
Its total garbage watching it on a tv at home and the special effects are not that special now. It was pretty good for its time, in an imax.
Nathan Long
Fuck. You. It was the number one movie of all time that changed cinema FOREVER.
Matthew Hernandez
Make up you're mind.
Kevin Hill
No. YOU make up YOUR mind.
Anthony Powell
i dislike all three of the things you mentioned. avatar is probably better than any marvel or star wars movie though
Nolan Stewart
>Shaniqua steps out of the time machine >"Wait, what'choo mean all my people iz dead in dis century? What'choo mean you brought me here to put me in a muh-fukkin' zoo?? Iz you a cop? I want mah phonecall now!"
How do you respond?
Landon Long
Hand her a new pair of shoes.
Logan Rodriguez
All fun, and I'd agree with you more if the tone of the film had been a swashbuckling romp through the jungle.
Instead, we got Diogenes by way of Jake Sully.
Austin Jackson
Start kicking her in the face over and over until she stops breathing.
Bentley Rogers
go back to your hibernation state abatap, Avatar 2 isn't out yet.
Ryder Davis
Whip out my white dick and begin the civilizing.
Matthew Gutierrez
>ywn fuck abatap in his boipucci and then cuddle with him afterwards
Why even live
Austin Rivera
abatap wouldn't have sex with any human, he's saving his virginity for a Na'vi
