To See Or Not To See Avatar...

That is the question. It doesn't really appeal to me, 3-D doesn't interest me and I don't care for theater-going anymore, but on the other hand http://movies.yahoo.com/news/movies.ap.org/vatican-says-avatar-no-masterpiece-ap  hate it, which makes me think I absolutely must see it. If for no other reason than to annoy those people.

Sunday, maybe. Maybe even IMAX.

"The Vatican newspaper and radio station are criticizing James Cameron's 3-D blockbuster for flirting with the idea that worship of nature can replace religion — a notion the pope has warned against."

Note to the Vatican: Worship of nature IS a religion, one your faith was quite happy to steal rituals from in order to assimilate them.

Quite so...and one of the reasons I like to do the complete opposite of what the Vatican says.

Hmm. It's on IMAX near me, and also not so near me but near friends in Columbia. Eeny meeny miny mo...

I'm not going to see it. I know I will get really nauseous from it - movies like that do not do well with me. And IMAX or even just regular 3-D make me sick. I turn a lovely shade of green.

I kinda expect the IMAX/3D will give me a serious headache. But I also have to think that, being an artist, I ought to see it. I've managed to hold off a month, but I'll likely break down and go.

I've heard about all the issues my friends and family have had with it, and I admit to forming some preconceptions, but in the end, I still want to see it.
