'Airbender' is a hip buzzword? Oh wait, i see...

That's why you get TWO slurpies! Once you have finished one of them, you have an empty container to "fill-up" and leave for the little puke zit face to clean up after the movie! Actually, to be honest, the only way to cover for the sound of peeing into a cup at the movies is to get an extra bucket of popcorn and not eat it. The popcorn mutes the sound of pee hitting a surface. (And no, I haven't done this, just wish I had on several occassions at the movies...)


As per the movie preview: Looks fake, but at the same time looks like it would be an enjoyable story, which is all I really care about when it comes to a movie (Like anyone here hates Army of Darkness simply because the effects looked like crap! Shop smart; shop S-Mart!)


EDIT: Maybe my new custom title should be "An extra bucket of popcorn at the movies is really just cinema diapers, but it really just Depends!"

I think it's in 3D too. I haven't seen a 3D movie since I was a kid.  I know it's cheesy but I've been wanting to see one at the Imax, but every time I get motivated to go, the movie I wanted to see was no longer being shown in 3D.

In Journey to the Center of the earth, it was a gimmick. I had a headache after that because it was implemented so horribly.

In Coraline and Up, it added amazing depth. no headaches either.

ChadTower:

I'll agree with Up but less on Coraline.  They tried to jump out of the screen quite a bit in Coraline and I just couldn't really see it.

I only saw Journey to the Center of the Earth at home so no 3D.  I can see how it must have sucked, though, from what I remember of the cheesy 1955 style floating rocks and birds.

There were a few cheesy 3D gimmicks in Coraline, but for the most part, the 3d was used to add overall depth. The garden scene was amazing.

Journey to... didn't any depth to the real actors it seemed. Just like they assigned them a flat value just for overall depth. I often checked this by lifting my glasses. The true 3d stuff was usually moving WAY too fast for it to register as more than a headache inducing blur ( bird, fish, mouthwash, etc).

When 3d is used in stationary or slow/moderate moving scenery, it is really good.
