Erm...maybe he just didn't like Avatar that much? That's a perfectly legit reation - what's politics got to do with it?
I enjoyed my 3D IMAX experience with Avatar but I don't think it's a great movie - I think Pandora is a marvelous creation but the same things I didn't like about Aliens and Titanic - simplistic plot, carboard evil villains, weak character development etc - are all there in Avatar. So Avatar is not a movie I'll likely own either, although I'm happy enough to have experienced it in the theater through large format presentation.
I'm perfectly happy for those fans who love Avatar and other 3D actioners and can't wait to upgrade to 3D HT. That's great. Y'all have fun.
But what is 3D gonna do for my favorite films? Other than Coraline, NOTHING. And politics has NOTHING to do with my opinion. It's a matter of personal taste - I don't think After The Wedding or Mulholland Drive or Children of Men or The Lives Of Others or Let The Right One In or Goodfellas or The Conversation are coming out in 3D. And those are my favaorite sorts of movies.
