Just been to see it for the first time and it won't be the last! I'd kept as clear of the hype as possible and had only seen the one trailer. Bloody brilliant film. Did anybody else notice that Cameron used musical riffs from Alien in some of the fight scenes?

James Horner certainly has his style nailed down. There were a few cues from ENEMY AT THE GATES and GLORY as well. I did like the themes though, especially the Na'vi themes and during Jake's first flight.CJ wrote:Just been to see it for the first time and it won't be the last!

Yes 3D. Superb effects - a visual feast! If you've not seen it just go.
