At least my theatre audience did not applaud when Sully's eyes came alive in his Avatar body at the "climatic" (predictable) end of the movie.

Presumably he means "climactic," unless global warming is more of an issue in the movie.

I thought the movie proved that Sully, even though now an AVATAR, was still a MARINE, a good Christian, and a good American.

Excellent on-target review of an anti-American liberal pukefest.

I also root for Marines in general, making us modern day heretics.

"Dances with Wolves" but the Indians are blue and the wolves can fly. Cameron -- just one more brain-dead Pomegranate.

The Ewoks were bad but this is infinitely worse.

The decadent aristocrats of eighteenth century France used to play at being nymphs and sheperdesses in the formal gardens at Versailles.

This is the Hollywood equivalent.

You know you’ve lost it with Hollywood Ca. when you find yourself rooting for the villains in their stupid movies. I was rooting for Daniel Day Louis all the way in Gangs of NY.

This is SO sad! I love Sci-Fi, I LOVE Special Effects, I love a good Movie, and I LOVE innovative film making. But as soon as a movie gets “preachy” (in ANY direction) it is ruined for me. This one sounds particularly manipulative, not to mention idolatrous. I loathe an agenda-driven script!

This is one I will be sure to miss. (sigh)

To Phil Kline:

“Call me unenlightened,”

OK, you are.

” but when I see a Marine battle an anvil headed beast called forth by a planet-god — I root for the U.S. Marine.”

So did those who saw it, and guess what Phil ,(I can guess you haven’t seen the movie), the Marine won.

I will see it in DVD , eventually. I like to oause these left films and adress the screen with a string of unmentionable explicatives.

It sharpens the mind to debate liberals/lefties and win.

And what high tech, high budget movies are there with positive American themes coming out as a counterbalance to this movie? None. Epic fail by the monied conservative intelligentsia for not even getting into the field of battle. We need hip, edgy, high tech movies that subtly promote traditional themes. We need a major movie studio/record company/tv production conglomerate that caters to non-leftist writers, directors, actors, etc. Not to try to overtly sell a political view, but to subtley and artfully portray themes that will find their way into the cultural zeitgeist.

The good news is, the Avatar video game bombed big time in both the US and Europe.
Good!

I saw this movie and it was clearly propoganda; however, I still enjoyed the movie for its entertainment value.

I am suspicious of any supposedly intelligent reviewer who cannot filter out 20 minutes of political correctness in an otherwise enjoyable 2.5 hour movie.

Life is 24 hours a day without some common sense you will never make it.

Phill Kline, BTW, was the KS Attorney General who was hounded out of office by RATS protecting Tiller the baby killer. He's a pretty good judge of leftist propaganda. Ironically, if Kline had been allowed to put Tiller out of business, Tiller would still be alive.
