Avatar doesn't have opening credits. That's something that seemed to bother people in some of the reviews I read, but I of course totally don't mind

You may be speaking too soon if you haven't seen it in RealD or IMAX and I hope you get to sometime.

WROOONG Bunkie, although what I call "Credits" in this case is where the word for the movie company comes on the screen. That is when we walked in. I realize that most people mean all the names and stuff, when they say "credits", but it's an established fact that I'm Weird, so my definition that anything other than the movie itself is a "credit" should not be a shock.

I HATE those stupid glasses, and being stone deaf in the left ear, negates any of the super duper audio wizardry, as it does absolutely NOTHING for me, as I have ZERO Sense of direction of sound, but I CAN hear the full spectrum in my good ear, why I like the subsonics. One day I will set up a set of subwoofers IN the recliner, so that I can FEEL the subsonics in my thighs and spine.
I have seen two movies, (both 2D), in the IMAX theater in the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, and I get the same effect sitting in the center of the first row in a normal theater.

Be grateful you have one working ear. I hear NOTHING cuz my ears are broke and been that way for 15 years now. I've learned to adapt and my sense of feel has become my #1 sense. A subwoofer UNDER your chair or next to you is the next best thing when it comes to hearing loss. I watched Avatar at my buddy's house. He has surround sound and a huge subwoofer that shakes the house and the experience of avatar (blue ray on HD tv) was totally unbelievable. Then I went to the theater during the re-release SE version where they had surround sound and subwoofers built in the theater with 3D viewing....OMG!

That isn't really the definition of credits as most people call it. I'd say that's a splash screen

Txim_asawl, I am with you on this one: I would not watch Avatar on TV, either - precisely because of all the ads that, it seems, are Meant to come up in the most crucial & emotionally charged moments!

I shall bless IMAX with my presence for Avatar 2 (3, 4, 5... 10) - meanwhile, I have my DVD, & watching Avatar is such a deeply personal, almost sacred, experience, that I prefer to watch it alone, & shut out everything (no lights, no phones, no nothing & don't knock on my door cos I am on a different planet! ). And dive in & then just surf it.

Hey, what's this now? Car commercial break??? Are we having commercials on this thread now, too?

Wiggling toes, not owning any car,

Don't worry Txim, if I load up any photos of my three Jeeps they will be in private messages to him. I would not have even said another word about them here, but you asked the question, so I had to answer you.
