From member Brandon Fibbs:
Early in James Cameron’s new film Avatar (his first since 1997’s Titanic), a character utters the line, “You should see your faces!” as her aircraft navigates a vista of astonishing splendor. Without a doubt, Cameron was thinking of more than just the occupants of the on-screen transport when he wrote that line. He was speaking directly to every one of us. Avatar is one of those rare movies that can deservedly be labeled an “event film;” you will remember when and where you saw it for the rest of your life. And while its cinematic impact may not quite rise to the hubristic heights some have speculated, it is as bold and audacious a step in that direction as cinema has ever seen.
