    Watched it in IMAX 3d with my kid. It ruled, so much fun to watch. Will never watch it again though, and certainly never at home. That defeats the entire purpose.

      We even went to a new “4D” room where the seats moved, you got wind and mist etc. It’s like a thrill ride at that point almost.

        I mean, it’s not that much about the movie but about the experience. It’s just an FX festival. Of course that’s only going to work with the appropriate equipment.

        That is a very strange conclusion. Plenty of movies are good without an immersive 3d experience. Most are, actually. Avatar just isn’t one of them.

        But it was, none the less, an extremely fun experience. Things can be good for different reasons.

        It’s kinda like watching a video of an amusement park ride and being like, “don’t you think it’s weird to have to drive to the park and get on the ride for it to be good.”
