I went in skeptical. Came out liking it a lot. The visual technology to create Cameron's world is unbelievable - literally hundreds of SFX workers and many, many SFX companies at work.

Same plot line as Disney's Pocahantas, Dances w/Wolves, Last Samurai, etc.; white man goes to the rescue of indigenous folks. But it was very well done.

Here's one of Cameron's groundbreaking tech features: motion capture.




Wife and I had a discussion whether an actor using this technology could attract an acting nomination. She says it's animation, thus does not qualify. I say "not exactly"; If an actor's performance warrants consideration, they'll find a way.
