Avatar is a hard-working, earnest proletarian normie movie that has universal appeal everywhere on Earth, and a nice simple story with good themes

Irony poisoned film snobs and capekiddies will never understand. They think what makes a good movie is a convoluted story filled with twists, or references to pop culture and lore, or 4th wall breaking winks at the audience. They have turned into robots who clap when they see thing they recognize, or who have a checklist of what makes a “good movie” and are not enjoying the art as art, but as a process they believe themselves involved in (they aren’t, the algorithm has full control)

maybe im ignorant, but how is Avatar a 'hard-working, earnest proletarian normie movie'? normie I can understand, but the rest im like are we talking about the same James Cameron's Avatar?

I’m obviously saying it a bit tongue in cheek, but I also mean that the audience who enjoys Avatar tends to be poorer and more in the developing world than average audiences for Hollywood blockbusters

Where are you getting that it's the developing world enjoying Avatar? All the stats seem to point to developed Asian countries loving it the most with the only major developing country being India.

You are living in a different world, the westoid one where Avatar is cringe. I’m living with my poor homies where Avatar is based. We are not the same.
