I Hate Avatar

Dear reader,

Perhaps you can help me with something. I would like to understand why Avatar is not one of the worst movies of all time. Did it not feel like a cutscene from a Halo-type game that I couldn't skip no matter how many buttons I pressed? Did it not resemble a laminated fantasy painting of fairies and waterfalls that I might otherwise see hanging on the ceiling above a bed of a drama/computer/goth kid with parents arguing loudly in the other room? Poorly written characters, trite eco-political messages, and glaring plot-holes are not, for me, inspiring filmmaking. Although, to be fair, I have always wanted to fuck a dragon.
