Nope, an actual shitty E.T. knockoff. It's only notable because of RedLetterMedia (the Plinkett Star Wars reviews). People always send them tapes for garbage movies and coincidentally they wound up with a few Nukie copies, people saw the Nukies and started sending more Nukies, and they started sniping Nukie auctions online. They purposely had never even watched the movie, the collection was just an in-joke spun into a larger meme.

What's got people talking about it recently is RLM had their best quality Nukie 'professionally' evaluated and graded, then mulched the entire collection through a wood chipper and auctioned the remaining tape for charity.

I gotta stop you right there. Many superhero movies, especially sequels, put emphasis on action set pieces and cramming in as many characters as possible. MCU films manage to do both of these things, but they don’t use CGI blockbuster directors like Michael Bay or Zack Snyder.
They choose smart directors/writers who focus on character and plot, and support them with a CGI crash-course to teach them what they don’t know. It pays off, resulting in a much more sustainable and marketable product with higher average quality than the superhero genre.

A planet can have more than one resource. Unobtanium was the least interesting part if avatar imo. I thought it was annoying that every conflict was caused by the kids getting captured. It happens like 4 times.

It's so weird to hear your criticism given that you are a Marvel / Superhero fan

Like I can understand not liking Avatar 2, but at least it's leagues better than any MCU dogshit. I don't get how you can eat up that comic book junk, but then have this critical mindset for another blockbuster. I mean at least Avatar is a visual aesthetics masterpiece, superhero movies don't even have that going for them..
