hyped up movies in recent times have been lame though - the dark knight was madly overated.

"The Dark Knight" is one of my favorite movies, ever. To me, it's the best comic book adaptation ever put to film. I can't see how anyone could consider it overhyped. To me, it was deserving of it's hype. I think it delivered on every level that it was supposed to.
As far as "Avatar" I'm not really sure what to expect. I thought the trailer looked cool. And I definitely plan on seeing it. The 3-D should make it even more interesting to watch. I just hope the story is there. James Cameron doesn't usually disappoint though.

Exactly. That was one of the few big movies to actually deliver.
I'll ry to catch Avatar tonight. A lot of people are gonna go in with high expectations which is a big mistake. I'll try not to.

Yeah. I think it will be good, but probably won't "reinvent the wheel " (well, maybe on a special effects level, but not overall movie). The reviews I've read for it have been mostly positive. One criticism that I keep hearing is that the story is a little derivative of other movies. But everyone seems to be saying that the effects are amazing. I definitely plan on seeing it sometime over the next few days. I'm sure it will be good. I don't really care if it doesn't quite live up to masterpiece status.

Camerons' movies from the past were probably hyped...but it did live up to it...didn't it? ;) From Alien 1 and 2, Terminator 1 and 2, to True Lies to Strange Days to Current movies. His movies were considered classics.

Alien (the first one) was by Ridley Scott.
