Default I dont enjoy other movies as much anymore.

So as the title says, after seeing a few movies now other than Avatar, the others just do not seem as good. Now I realize that this can probably be said about any movie that someone is a huge fan of, yet I do not mean only in merely the story aspect. Take tonight for instance, I went and saw Repo Men. At this point I am sure you are saying, "okay....this is completely not even the same type of genre as Avatar", but allow me to continue.

First off, in all the times I have seen Avatar, I am able to completely clear my mind, for those 2 hours and 40 min, my mind is only concentrating on Avatar. I am able to escape my modern worries for that time. This is not something that any movie can compare too. Another point is acting, while some say it was not the best in Avatar, I disagree, I thought they did an awesome job and as you all know I loved Zoe! The last thing I will touch on is the CGI which is an obvious point, so no need to explain.

Now how does Repo Men come into play? Well for me no movie I have seen pulls me in as hard as Avatar did, while this may not be every movies intention, I want the movie to take my attention, to fully concentrate on the movie not feel the need to jump on facebook in the middle of the movie. Now on acting for Repo, it actually was not to bad, but what brings me back to Avatar is that it installed such a peace going feeling inside of me. What I mean is before I would have liked a gory movie, seeing people go badass and kill people, but not this does not appeal to me much at all. It seems so many movies at this time are going into a dark world and Avatar brought Pandora which was bright and livid.

I realize these are very small points and the two movies really shouldnt be compared. Maybe I am biased, Im not sure. However, all I know is after the movies Ive seen, I still leave the theater thinking about Avatar, even discussing it with my friend on the way home

So am I the only one this way? What are you experiences with other movies after seeing Avatar? Thanks for reading.
