I was goong to say it was more a tech demo since they made the insta-CGI machine for it. But then he went and made a second one about abandoning your home, getting your new one in the same trouble, and whales.

That's how I saw it, a tech demo for the cgi and the 3D TVs that everyone now has.

I saw the second one and literally don't remember anything about whales. So that's how much I paid attention.

I say that Avatar is the cinematic equivalent of having one of those monstrous huge old keyboards with eight hundred different preloaded sounds and instruments and pressing the DEMO button and listening to five minutes of every ridiculous sound effect known to God and Giorgio Moroder, and with about the same artistic merit.
