    Why all the Betty hate? I think I'm the only one who likes her even though January Jones is not that good of an actress. Plus, she has her own plot now. She married a man she's only known for six weeks! She and Don will probably spend next season being awkwardly placed in each others presence. Maybe she and Don will have an affair once she realizes what a mistake she has made by marrying Henry! #madmen

    Like every other teenage girl that year, I saw Titanic twice in the theater. Looking back, I am really ashamed of this. Watching that movie now, I think it is so cheesy and insipid. And the ending doesn't make much sense. Before Rose starts telling her love story why didn't anyone stop her and say "Hey, that's great and all but where is the diamond at?". I watched "LA Confidential" again recently and I still think it is brilliant. It should have won Best Picture.

    It seems like Cameron is trying to make a message movie and comment on current political events. Eh, who knows if it will work? I don't particularly care to see animated aliens and humans do battle but maybe someone will. $380 million is still a hell of a lot of money for a film. Especially in today's market when a film has to generate really good buzz from either critics or moviegoers just to stay in theaters for more than 2 months. Back in 1997, a film could probably be guaranteed a 2 month run even if it was just mediocre. Times have changed. #avatar

    I'm not sure whether it makes any difference whether it's $380 million or $400 million or $500 million.

    These are all equally insane numbers.

    It's kind of like arguing about whether a murder victim was stabbed 38 times or 40 times or 50 times. #avatar

    It looks like the most elaborate and fancy video-game cut-scene ever committed to the big screen.

    Can’t wait to see all of the Avatar merch dumped in discount stores come Spring 2010. #avatar

    I just realized last night that Trudie is also Annie on Community with Joel McHale. It was such a shock to realize because they are so different. So she is pretty busy herself. #madmen

    For $500 million they ought to have been able to hire someone who could design aliens that didn't look like they were taken straight from the cover of a throwaway sci-fi novel.

    I would like to invite Jon Hamm to star in independent erotic films produced, directed, and starred in by me in my home.

    Slattery can join us if he wants.

    Just in case this Mad Men gig doesn't work out.

    Purrrrrrrrrrrr #madmen

    If the ratio of production costs to marketing costs is as close to 1:1 as the article implies (sorta, kinda), then this film must be garbage. They can sugarcoat it all they want referring to "worldwide" marketing, but still the same difference and lack of profit. #avatar

    @PaisleyPajamas: Agreed. While it's not fair to dismiss a film as garbage without seeing it, this can't be good. Especially when, this close to the release date, the advance news is how much it costs to make and not how good it is. #avatar
