I hear Cameron was complaining that theaters were selling tickets to Spike Lee's new movie to people who asked for Avatar and directing them to the Avatar theater to keep the take down and for BFL to win his bet.

I went today and thought it was a great movie. I went to the 3D but not at an IMAX theater. I don't think the 3D makes much difference though. Would also be just as good in 2 D.
Anyway , I would recommend it to anybody!  |

In 3D, not IMAX. Schedule wasn't great for IMAX - maybe on second viewing  |

Avatar 9th overall after 2 weeks:
Based on its first 10 days in U.S. theaters, "Avatar" ticket sales rank ninth among blockbusters at that mile marker, behind hits including "The Dark Knight," "Spider-Man" and this year's "The Twilight Saga: New Moon."
Strong IMAX showing:
Greg Foster, Imax Corp.'s chairman and president for filmed entertainment, said nearly every "Avatar" showing at the company's 242 locations around the world had been sold out for 10 days.
Imax locations have generated more than $39 million in "Avatar" sales so far, Mr. Foster said. By way of comparison, he said it took "The Dark Knight" six weeks to sell $45 million worth of Imax tickets—a level he expects "Avatar" to achieve after just 13 days in theaters.

This is funny because I saw it on the opening weekend in Kingston(12pm) and there were maybe 20 of us in the theater. Plenty of seats. Based on that I thought it wouldn't do as well as predicted but it seems to be doing just fine. It better though because of the budget to make this was astromomical. I might see it again but will probably wait to see it on dvd. |

Ok just got back from the IMAX 3D showing of this (I got tickets online on Saturday for this!)
granted this is the only movie I've ever seen in IMAX, but it was by far the most amazing viewing experience I've even had. It just blew me away from start to finish!

Avatar totally blew me away. Loved the 3D, I've never seen anything decent in 3D before. The story wasn't too bad, considering its basically Disney's Pocahontis but in space... Saw it in South Kingstown on Christmas day, theatre was pretty empty.
