Films: Avatar/Legion


Well. These two films come out soon, and I'm not excited about either. A good way to start a post then. It's taken James Cameron a full four years of production to come out with 'The Wet Dream of JaJaBinks' (Avatar), developing a 3D epic that blurs the boundaries between real life and proposing marriage to the World of Warcraft girlfriend you've been hoping technology will materialise before you can no longer leave the chair. However, the sound editing in the trailer is pretty intense; a wall of noise with barely any diagetic sound... definitely worth watching.

Legion however, has no redeeming features. Many trailers don't breed anticipation for a single redeeming feature in the end product, but it's been a while since I've come across something this category of silly. The kind that actually makes you laugh and despair at the things talented people will do together. Paul Bettany used to carefully remove suits before torturing people, now he's being butchered like silly putty after making silly faces in studios. Silly.
