I stumbled upon a few free passes and used them to catch Avatar again last night. Packed house for a movie that's been out a month already caught me off guard. According to Friday's numbers, looks like it's going to stay number 1 again this weekend. That will put it ahead of Dark Knight (domestically). My God, does this movie really have a shot? I can't believe no film has been able to touch Cameron's last . . . except Cameron's newest. Fitting I suppose.
On the film, what a great pace up until SPOILERS the tree falls. I can't exactly pinpoint why it loses its steam, but the movie just seems to trot along until the final battle where things pick up again. Still, even the third time around, this movie is an experience. I really hope Cameron follows up with a sequel.
