OK, I gotta defend Avatar a bit, because nobody seems to lol, it was the first movie to use 3d technology in the masses, not to say it was the first ever to use 3d, but it was shot all in 3d, using 3d camera, technology never before made,used or concieved was made to make his film work, tons and tons fo cgi, plus this was a movie that was stuck in the directors mind and project pile for 20 years, he just needed the wait long enough for the technology to come available, to make the movie the proper way he invisioned it. It turned out to be the best selling, most seen movie of all time.

This is also 1 of 3 movies, he's making 2 more movies to create a trilogy, kinda like star wars, George Lucas waited years to gain the technology he needed to create the remaining 3 movies. I can only imagine how badass the next 2 movies will be, as like most good trilogies, the best is at the end. and the story seems more grand when you've watched the whole story unfold.

Yes the movie is kinda preachy, but there's a lot of good underlying messages besides don't fuck with mother nature, and to respect the earth, belief in one's self, one's identity, and sticking up for what is right, all noble beliefs, something today's culture of fb/twitter junkies could use more of.

In closing if that doesn't turn your mind on the movie and what will be a trilogy, a good friend of mine told me she thought the Avatar people were sexy blue kitties, and the 2nd time I watched the movie I totally got what she meant and made me laugh, might make you do the same if you keep that in mind, lol.
