Is it just me or does Avatar look lame?

With a combined budget of nearly 500 million dollars (300 mil to make, 150 mil to market, 50 mil for petty cash), Avatar looks like an overblown video game. I get trying new things and all, but I hate it when special effects push aside realism - one of the main reasons the second two Matrix movies sucked. It brings up the age-old question, "Just because we can, does that really mean we should?"

I don't want to judge a book by its cover, but I'm not opposed to judging a movie by its trailer. And my judgment on Avatar is that someone is going to lose a lot of money followed by a lot of someones losing their jobs.

I hope I'm wrong, but I'm usually not. Check out the trailer and you decide. Avatar Trailer.
