Movie reviewers get paid to write nonsense. This is a good example. Avatar was an anti-American leftist fantasy, but it was a ripoff of Dances with Wolves, not Leni Riefenstal.

Do you think people will accuse me of being influenced by other directors when they see MY latest film: Titanic Holy Mountain Dances of the Blue Pocohontas People?

Dances with Wolves, certainly. But also the Pocahontas cartoon. And At Play in the Fields of the Lord. And the Mosquito Coast. And Fern Gully.

The reason it took Cameron 10 year to make the movie was that he had to wait for all the films he wanted to rip off to be finished.

You would have a much harder time substantiating that claim than the one presented in the article.
