It does have more to it than merely the technology... but not <em>much</em> more. Strip away the palpable sense of being immersed in the pristine forest environment and I imagine you're left with some pretty bits of computer animation and little else. So if you get a chance to see it on the big screen in 3D, then I'd actually suggest you do so. Otherwise, despite the occasional moments of impressive psychedelia, it's not a film I'd recommend.

One thing 'Avatar' lacks is Vincent Price. I’ve not seen ‘Avatar’, but I still think the 1953 ‘House of Wax’ in 3D takes some beating. One thing ‘Avatar’ lacks is Vincent Price.
