Why do people like the movie Avatar so much?

Question by Caleb: Why do people like the movie Avatar so much?
ok. hear me out. don’t just instantly go “ur retarded for not liking it” i am free to my opinion. and so are u. just listen for a second

personally the only thing i think it has going for it is the special effects. im not gonna try to hide the fact that is has crazy special effects. but what else? the story isn’t good at all. its a completely cliche story thats been used hundreds of times.

a person is supposed to look at someone as the enemy. but then after spending time with them they start to love them and want to be with them and be one of them. in the end he turns against what he used to believe in.

and the acting wasn’t anything special either. im not saying it was bad. but it was just average. Zoe Saldana did a really good job though. everyone else though had an average performance

so is it really just the fact that it had probably the best special effects ever? is that what made this movie make that much money?

if so thats sad. cause to me i don’t watch a movie for the special effects. i watch a movie because it has a good story, and good acting. having good special effects is of course always good but its not as important to me as acting and plot.

what do u think? and please be realistic. don’t be immature and just start rambling about how dumb u think i am for not liking the movie.

what do u think of my claim?
