hmm.... Avatar..be prepared to be disappointed....terrible script,
fair acting. I will give it a 3 of 5 for the SE and for the 3D and
the visit to a new planet. I would say the tobacco industry got a $1BB
of long term value for that disgusting cigarette smoking Sigourney
Weaver segment.
Let's face it... the first critics out of the gate panned the film and
the 20th Century Fox- Murdoch boys scrambled and the next thing you
know... the critics coast to coast called the flick the greatest thing
since sliced bread. Bought and sold critics. The politics of the film
reviews. There continues to be no integrity in leadership throughout
the USA society.
Nobody has yet posted the appalling cigarette loving Sigourney Weaver
takes. I would say the tobacco industry got a $1BB of long term
value for that disgusting scripting. Who got the visible money? Only
a good muckraker will find out for us and there ain't any left!
As an aside....It is a good time for Jesse Ventura "Conspiracy
Theory" on TruTV ...to attempt illuminating the lies of government,
the military-industrial complex and the greediest of our business
leaders...all trampling on the consititution and the Bill of Rights.
Of course..will Jesse attempt any objective reporting? Probably not
but I did find the InfraGard expose more than interesting.
