Hey readers!
Sorry I've been away for a while. Been extremely busy at Uni... editing our film. It's coming along very nicely though. And we just filmed the final scene recently, which had its problems... but on the whole went very well!
Just had two of my wisdom teeth out, so have been feeling pretty poo these last few days. Luckily saw Avatar yesterday, which made me forgot about all that for 2 and a half hours. You can read the review below.
A lot of people have asked why Blessed-Topia 2 never came out this December. I can confirm now that a sequel is in the works but with my massive work load of the film and my dissertation, I just couldn't do it for this December. Keep looking however, as it will be out early next year.
Anyway, here's a couple of new movie reviews from you. I will be posting my top 10 films of the year soon so keep watching.
Bye for now!

REVIEW
+ After months of me worrying that it wouldn't be very good - it blew me away. +
+ The 3D is absolutely incredible and super immersive. +
+ Even though the CG characters weren't 100% photo realistic, after 10 minutes you just forget about it and believe every single one of them is there. +
+ The planet of Pandora is the true star here, and one of the most amazing locations ever put to film. +
+ A simple story, but great in that you don't get confused and can just enjoy it for what it is. +
+ The music by James Horner was similar once again to all his other stuff, but still perfectly suited the film. +
+ It's two and a half hours long, but I didn't feel it at all - I wanted more. +
+ Incredible performances from everyone, even the digital characters. Zoe Saldana needs to be recognised for her work in this film. +
+ Amazing direction from the master of sci-fi James Cameron. It draws you in, never lets go, and makes you just want more. +
+ The biggest compliment I can give is that it pure escapist entertainment. It may not be 100% perfect. But I knew I was watching something special, and I loved every single minute of it. +

BEST MOMENT
There are so many fantastic moments, and I can't actually say my favourite without giving away a massive spoiler. So instead I'm gonna say when Jake rides his banshee for the first time.

REVIEW
+ Visually incredible. +
+ You felt like you were getting your money's worth - about 5 disaster films rolled into one. +
+ Very entertaining throughout. +
+ Brilliant destruction on a scale you've never seen before. +
+ Often very tense, edge of your seat stuff. +
+ Even though lines are often super cheesy, I still liked all the actors and the characters that they played. +
- It felt a little too long. -
- Sometimes the plot was just TOO stupid. -
- The score was pretty forgettable. -
- I saw it on the front row - so it was all a bit mish-mash... but I look forward to seeing it again on Blu-Ray. -
