Avatar

So I saw Avatar on Thursday. I'm a little slow about writing about it. SorryXP
And it was absolutely, amazingly GORGEOUS!
It was hands down the purdyiest movie evah!

It was mostly 3D animated, on this world were almost all the plants lit up when touched. It was to die for, it was so purdy.

There's a lot of people online crying up about it being un-American, and while I can see where they are coming from I think that they should just enjoy the movie and forget about who or what it might criticize. It's not important. So I will not comment on that particular aspect of it, it's irrelevant. So thereXP

One thing the movie did have thou, was an eco-message. The invading human forces on the strange planet of Pandora are there for Unobtainium, a highly valuable rock of some kind, and will stop at nothing to get it. Not even destroying the wonderful, light-up forest. At one point our hero tell the mother tree "there are no green there [on earth]. They killed their mother".

The plot of this movie is that this ex-marine, Jake Sully, is going to Pandora to be some sort of hit man I think. (I don't see how, seeing as he's lame from then waist down, but that's of no matter.) With his identical twin brother, who is going there to be an Avatar driver. Avatars are bred from a cross-mix of native DNA and their drivers DNA, and the drives meld their mind with them to control them.
Anywho, the brother is killed (I don't remember how), and seeing as how identical twins have identical DNA, Jake takes over his Avatar. And lo and behold, he can walk. The first scene in which he takes his Avatar for a run is so endearing, all that childish glee is just wonderful=D
The queen of the Avatar program (the head scientist), is not pleased at having to have a gun happy ex-marine along, but soon Jake develops a bond with a native girl named Neytiri, and then the whole tribe.
And then the inevitable conflict (without which movies and books as we know them today would not exist) arises. The largest Unobtainium deposits exist directly below Home-Tree, where the natives live. How ever will they solve this?

The graphics are gorgeous. The natives and avatars, who are both animated, by a sort of rotoscoping technique, are also very well made. As a general rule I don't like 3D people, they usually live way to far into Uncanny Valley for my taste, but they were so unlike real people, that this really weren't a problem.
They were actually very pretty, with little glowing blue spots in their faces and on their bodies. And all blue. Only annoying thing with their design where these long braids down their backs which they used to connect with things, which apparently grew out already braided, which was a little weird.

All in all it was a great movie, and you all have to see it. In 3D if possible=D
