I find it kind of hilarious that people are looking for realism in "The Matrix."

I think it's quite funny that he says, "And, not to mention names…" and one second later "…but if it was Michael Bay making this movie…"

I think we've opened pandoras box and now were stuck with over hyped scifi movies.

That picture of Michael Bay is going to haunt my dreams tonight.

I think we should never use CGI again. Also, we should live in teepees.

I don't think the last two Matrix movies looked remotely realistic.

the fight on the freeway looks like two Gumby dolls fighting to the death.

Even when CGI does look real, if the story's not there under to make you care about what is happening to the characters, it's just a big jerk of.

exhibt "A" being the last Terminator movie.

The lead-up to Avatar is fundamentally different from the lead-ups to The Matrix Reloaded or The Phantom Menace because everyone expected those to be good. Avatar is being met with endless pessimism.

This feels very much like a repeat of the period leading up to the release of the second two Matrix installments. We were assured by the studio that the CGI was such that we wouldn't be able to tell it apart from actual footage. That lie might have been forgivable if the story hadn't taken such a drastic wrong turn, to put it mildly.

I'm sure Avatar looks great, though probably not quite as great as we're being lead to believe. Public opinion of the visuals will be greatly helped if Cameron succeeds with story where the Wachowskis failed.

In that regard, from what I've seen so far, I'm kind of worried...
