I've only seen Avatar once but I liked it a lot. However, Titanic is a near masterpiece that I feel is definitely better.

There really is no comparison. I liked both, BTW.

Titanic - for a story we all know the ending to, it was a hell of a lot less predictable than Avatar.

Kal-El

Love both equally for different reasons.

Both films have groundbreaking special effects for their time.

Titanic has a pretty solid and involving and emotional plot while it's the absolute bare bones in Avatar.

Personally, I give the "better" title to Titanic.

Avatar is a great 3 hr movie

Titanic is a great 2 hour movie with an hour of filler

"You named your kid after fucking Titanic??"
"It's Cassie's favorite movie, so..."
"You gotta be shitting me. What's his name, fucking Shrek?"

Since both films are based on true events, I'm going with Avatar - a much better story than Titanic.

Titanic - a big boat that doesn't have enough row boats and a diamond on the ship. Chubby Kate Winslet, nah...
Avatar - anti-military, anti-war, anti-corporation, Hayoa Miyazaki-themed film. Hot CGI Zoe Saldana, yup!

I love both films though...

the abyss ...

i voted avatar, however, as noted well above, both are entertaining movies and technological achievements.

She doesn't look chubby in it, she looks good, ur crazy

toddly6666

She looks good chubby, but better skinnier. Compare her body in Titanic versus Little Children (her hot movie)

In the end, I think I'll choose Avatar. I'd like to see it a few times at home before making that a final decision.

Where's the Avatar vs. The Thing thread?

Skinny KW wasn't looking too great in The Reader. I'll take the "chubby" one any day.

toddly6666

Kate Winslet wasn't supposed to look good in The Reader. She was supposed to look like a skanky, hairy-pitted, depressed nazi.

I prefer Avatar over Titanic, personally. While I enjoyed elements of Titanic, I always thought the story of how the ship sank was far more interesting than the love story.

NowOrNever

Both films are equally fantastic. When it comes to which one is better, however, I feel that Titanic wins out. The word I keep using to describe Avatar is "amazing." The effects were the best I've ever seen and I really enjoyed the film so much (the three-hour runtime flew by!), but I felt Titanic is better on a different level. It's hard to explain it. Still, I'm deeply in love with both films.

Titanic is the better film. Take the hype about the 3D away, and Avatar is just an above-average animated kids movie.

Seriously, I saw "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" yesterday and the 3D was better done and the story was more original.

bunkaroo

Yeah but whether or not she looked "skanky", the shape of her breasts looks terrible when she's thinner. And BTW she didn't look much thinner to me than she did in Little Children.

She was her hottest in Eternal Sunshine IMO. When she's in that retro dress with Carrey hiding under the table....

Solid Snake

Ditto. As much as I didn't care about Titanic as a kid when it came out..the ship sinking was much more entertaining than the love story.

Aegean2007

I rated Titanic 6/10 and Avatar 7/10, so... Avatar.

Supermallet

Also, bonus points to Avatar for not having Billy Zane.

lamphorn

I agree with this.

PopcornTreeCt

I'll take the live action movie.
