So, there's this movie about a guy whose twin brother was a scientist, but then the brother dies and so the guy, whose an ex-marine, links up with this blue giant who has some of his brother's DNA and on a foreign planet he tries to save a clan of people with hunters and then he falls in love with a blue person and rides a dragon... GASP... long sentence ;)
Ok, really?  That sounds TERRIBLE!!!  This seems like the most ridiculous film ever.  Like a Saturday morning cartoon that's canceled after 2 weeks.  No thanks; I'll pass.
BUT, it's actually great!-- because, if you didn't catch the plot, it's Avatar.  I had no desire to see the movie when it was released.  I mean, blue giants and war????  No.  However, it was re-released on IMAX 3D and we saw it tonight. 
John and his parents, Mina and Dodd, had all seen it before.  I hadn't.  And, only John had seen it in 3D.  We all went and really enjoyed it.  It's so immersive.  During the scene with the ashes, I actually swatted away a few ashes before I hopped back to reality... no ashes in the theater.  Very, very good.  Glad I took a "No Thank You helping".
 
 
Hi!! Didn't know Mina and Dodd were there. That's so great!! I really liked Avatar too - yep, not for the story, but the COLORS!!. It's so beautiful!! Glad you had a good time. Mom
