While I thought Titanic was a masterful movie on many levels, I do agree that the trailer for Avatar is underwhelming, at best, given the hype the movie has received. It looks like a glorified Disney movie coupled with Dances With Wolves. At least, that's the impression I got from watching it and I still don't see what the big deal is. Frankly, the effects, while pretty good, still fall quite squarely into the Uncanny Valley, which invokes the same eerie detached feeling I got while watching Final Fantasy a few years back. I've heard the screenplay is different, so it could still turn out really well, but I'm not seeing anything special so far.
