    It's easy to judge too harshly fx from 31 years ago when we're now used to Avatar capabilities.
    Is it "used to" or "use to"? I'm used to not caring; I did at one time use to care.

      I can't say I hold Avatar up as a visually impressive movie, I thought everything about it was too fake. Give me these old FX any day.

        "finnished"? "borish"? Potkettleblack.
        This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

              At least "Finnish" is an actual word. Example: "The Finnish hate the Russians and vice versa." LOL.

                The OP is just trolling the message board, looking for a fight. It's one thing to not care for a film, but it's another to chime in and trash every last thing in extreme fashion in some silly attempt to get attention. Seriously, he's one of those folks who thinks a film is defined by special effects, so I am sure he'll like the new movie for that one shallow reason. The movie is a classic, and that doesn't happen to awful films. Being a classic that has stood the test of time and still is being talked about with affection today is much bigger and carries more meaning than the thoughts of a $hit-stirrer does!
                These trolls can attack classic films all they like, but they'll never change the fact that they are classics.


                Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

                  Lack of clarification on why they think the movie is bad makes be believe it is just a trolling attempt.

                      No way is the acting bad, not sure how anyone can say that.
                      I actually prefer Lester's take to Donner's in 2 key scenes:

                      1. Where he tells his mother that he loves Lois
                      2. Where he goes back to the Fortress and tells Jor-El that he failed then screams father.
                        Awesome acting.

                        @manofsteel I was born in the early 90s and I adore this film this and the original are some of my favourites as a kid I especially love the musical score so memorable

                          OP is a dumb fanboy but he's still correct. See my posts on this. As a kid I loved this movie, but as an adult I realize how poorly written (not to mention scientifically ignorant and illogical) it is. Puzo should have stuck with mafia epics.

                            Personally, as an adult I realize a movie doesn't have to be super realistic to be good. 🙂

                              Allow me to rephrase that. Not realistic per se, but rather
                              realistic within the context of the film.
                              I suppose the word would be logical consistency. The movie contradicts its own rules all the time. General Zod and his gang can take missiles and bullets without flinching yet Ursa is bitten by a regular old-fashioned snake. An evil Kryptonian breaks off and throws a radio tower at Superman. Later, this same tower is used by Superman to imprison an evil Kryptonian, who all of a sudden is not strong enough to bend and break that metal. Makes no sense. Indefensible. Just plain bad filmmaking. I don't mind fantasy, but when the author or filmmaker is just making it up as they go along for no reason, then I lose patience.

                                Every film has nitpicks and inconsistencies. Indefensible is a rather strong word to use.

                                    You can complain about some stuff minus the special effects and the acting. The acting is really good and the effects were good for it's time.
                                    Estas ah?

                                          Bad special fx, and they are not all bad, doesn't make the movie silly you know. The story and cast are strong.
