Really immersive, incredible experience of the closest thing to being on another world that there is, to see in the theatre. So people go see it. It’s not complicated. It’s not great art, won’t be celebrated as a milestone in filmmaking like LOTR or Blade Runner, won’t leave people stunned like Amadeus or Schindler’s List, but it’s a really amazing cinematic experience. Again, it’s not complicated.

well it certainly seemed that money was well spent. The Navi and Sullys looked amazingly realistic. They really handled the sense of scale and size differences in scenes with humans and avatars. Even the bits of Edie Falco walking around in a stilted(?) exo-suit with the recombinants and drinking coffee looked great

You can try all you want, but you can't pick a fight with me. I've already told you that I don't suffer fools gladly, but if you're too stubborn to listen, then go ahead and continue vomiting your impotent rage into the void.

Understand also that you'll be doing it alone, and probably forever.

I think the idolization stems from her "persona" and the fact she died well over 50 years ago under somewhat mysterious circumstances. Throw in the idea she was relatively young when died (36), and it perpetuates the myth in a way.

​

Think of James Dean. Similar to Monroe (both died young and are still idolized to this day). While Dean's death was far more obvious, the fact he died young adds a kind of mystique and allure that wouldn't be there had he died at a much older age. I feel it's a very similar concept with Monroe
