TMR Movie Review: Avatar

Had some time to see it yesterday....I sparked up & went to the 11:00 am IMAX 3D show...;) Very cool, loved the whole look of it, probably will not but the DVD, as I cannot see myself enjoying it without the huge screen/3D.
Looking forward to more of these movies, it was my first time @ an IMAX show.:cool:
