Curse you, Titanic!!!!!....STILL!!!!!!!

Things are quiet over here. Not much to do or say after you celebrated your 100th post three days ago. Nothing new in the news either; Jets lost, and people are buzzing about Avatar still.

Apparently Avatar is only $2 million behind James Cameron's other boring movie; Titanic, and the Americas cannot stop gossiping about it.

Is there anyone who is still mourning the sad fact that Titanic beat out Star Wars all those years ago? Am I the only Snow Trooper who stayed behind on Hoth?

Echo Base is a lonely place when you got nothing but Wampas hanging about.

Avatar, still?

I can't believe people are still talking about Avatar. I got to admit that when I saw it (not by my choosing) it was better than I assumed. But it's nothing to dissect. Yes, the CGI is amazing in it. Yes, it holds one's interest for the length of the entire film. But what impresses me the most is that it was (somewhat) original. Hollywood hasn't had an idea since the Matrix.

Sadly, during the previews prior to Avatar, they had a trailer for Clash of the Titans. No one is asking for a remake of that film. So why do it? All Hollywood can do now is remakes and (atrocious) films on comic books and video games (save Nolan's Batman and Silent Hill).

Do what I do, never go to the movies unless you actually are interested in the film. Perhaps the drop in box office revenue will show the walk of fame that you can't shit in a can and call it Terminator: Salvation (Note: never seen it, but I guarantee it sucks).

A Message to James Cameron


Jimmy,

You've fucking done it again! First Terminator 3, and now Avatar.

Thank you!
