Simplistic plot, simplistic characters and average actings can't all be masked by stellar CG and breath taking visuals. The characters were flat and boring, it was hard to connect to them because their development was so unrealistic. Like princess girl going from I'm betrayed to I wanna hump your bones to dust in a matter of one event is still ridiculous. The portrayal of the natives with an unblemished past or a very simplistic one really made the contrast between the natives and pmc pretty boring.

Spoiler for pretty damn spoilerish:

Especially the notion that a man has to be chosen by their flying creature yet sully doesn't really choose, instead he kind of just leaps on it. The worst part of the film was the amount of potential it really had. This could have easily been a trilogy or four part story that really fleshed out the world, but instead you get contrived things like Sigourne weavers character being killed out of giving a way for sully to live as a Navi which is stupid because there is no reason for Sully to be that emotional, we see one act of genuine compassion from weaver to sully and thats when she carries him to the bed, their relationship doesn't warrant the anger he supposedly feels, because we are too busy lost in the subpar romance story.

If cameron had axed one element, that being the cheesy love story, this movie could have been leaps and bounds better.

@Ending, actually this is the one movie I'd definitely go see in a theatre/imax, because that's the whole point, because the movie really doesn't have a engrossing story there really isn't a rewatchability.
