It’s all about the imagery, not the story. Same imperialist vs good-guy natives crap rehash. The technology is greatness, and I’ll see it, but only once, just for the visuals.

Now, maybe they’ll do Dragonriders of Pern or some other story that actually has action and a good story.

This had a good story. If it were a movie, such as Independence Day, where the good guys were humans fighting aliens coming in to take over, you'd be cheering, right? Well, in this case, the good guys happen to be aliens. Nothing wrong with that. Have you ever heard of Cortez? He was human. He was not a good guy. The Aztecs weren't very good, either; but that didn't justify Cortez.

Screw the fracking imagery, I do not support commie assholes in any way matter or form. No, their racist bigotry and hatred for everything actually right in the world is not acceptable as a cliched plot device. It is all hate speech and those out acting on it in the real world are flat out murderers.
