Froggie Thoughts: Avatar!
I can’t see movies until I can get them via Netflix, so I haven’t seen Avatar yet. But I can say that when it first came out and people went to see it, they all seemed to like it. Then last night James Cameron won some fake Oscars picked by the foreign press. (Which I’m pretty sure is 3 Italian guys who print a newsletter and give it away at their sandwich shop with the purchase of meatballs.) I keep hearing “James Cameron is such a douchebag.” “That movie sucked! He didn’t deserve to win!’ And so on and so forth. Here is what I do know. Creating a gigantic complicated film like that is something only a few people on this planet can do. If James Cameron is a douchebag…so be it. But he is a genius douchebag that made several of the most successful films of all time. Don’t act shocked if people give him awards for it. Personally, I’d give him an award for making giant lifelike 3D Smurfs. Because Smurfs are awesome.
Extra thought: Christina Hendricks…YOWZA!
