My father-in-law LOVES Avatar. Obsessively.
I trashed the movie at the dinner table one night. I talked through the relentless military bashing in the movie and said I would never watch it again for that reason alone.
He was *pissed*. The people who like this movie have had their brains addled by it.
I heard they thought of the story line for the first movie in about an hour. It shows. Even the name of the miracle mineral, unobtainium, is stupid.
You should have tossed in some of the eco wacko aspects of it too about how man destroys everything he touches. Of course that might have sent him over the edge. :>}
Definitely seemed like an Obama voter oriented movie. Promoting multiculturalism and diversity but I can understand that when you are distributing a movie worldwide you want Asians and Africans to pay to see it to. Its a silly fantasy but with an anti-military slant. The US military in particular in the Steven Lang character who looked a caricature of a US officer
“He was *pissed*. The people who like this movie have had their brains addled by it.”
Some of us can separate fantasy from reality. I image that is why you resort to slamming those who dare disagree with ‘you’ in the same manner as a liberal.
Grow up, what part of freedom do you not get?
Divest the movie of its ridiculous political and environmental message, and it’s a visually stunning film. I bought it on 3D BluRay and found myself physiologically affected by it throughout. It’s a testament to CGI, regardless of its creator.
