Avatar losing at the Emmies
So I was thinking this week about Avatar losing out to Precious at the Emmies and, like most geeks, feel that James Cameron got ripped off. I mean, I’m sure Precious was great and all (haven’t seen it yet. Looks like it could be a bummer, and not in the cool “aliens win and destroy humanity” bummer. I’ve seen Avatar 4 times) but I have to ask myself, “What movie will I buy on DvD and watch another 100 times in my lifetime?” The answer to that is, of course, Avatar.
I think Avatar will end up making perfect painting background material, much like the whole Lord of the Rings is. I can only hope they offer an extended version with a lot of deleted scenes inserted into the body of the movie. I hate it when you have click on each extra scene in the menu and then try to figure out where it was supposed to go. If I wanted to interact with my TV I would be watching cable and channel surfing.
The other 3D movie I need to see is the new Alice in Wonderland. The Johnny Depp poster looks kind of freaky, but I think it will be great. Speaking of that poster, I have it coming in as a t shirt soon (I hope). Meanwhile, I just got this cool Alice in Wonderland Zenescope t shirt, which will have to go into my comic book t shirts section, as Zenescope is a really cool indy comic book producer. I think I am going to look for a couple of trade on this series.
