It's the pictures, and not the thoughtful, intelligent and well-written articles that are important. ![[Image: screenshot-from-2022-12-28-16-10-57.png]](https://badinage1.files.wordpress.com/2022/12/screenshot-from-2022-12-28-16-10-57.png)

That's what I did. (I don't pay for tickets.)  RE: Movies are not for intellectuals

I ducked out during a quiet moment in the film. There are many moments like that. The 48 frames got stuttery a few times in my theater, but overall the film was beautiful and engaging. The eco-moral messaging was too in-your-face at a few moments. Is subtlety not a thing any more? My family thought it was a better movie than the first. For me, its about equal, though this one was visually amazing, and I did care about the characters a bit more. 
I haven't seen the first Avatar so doubt I will be watching the second one. From the clips I saw when the first one came out, it simply didn't hold my interest.
