;D Ninny,
I saw Avatar just the other day, but not in 3D. At the theater we went to they only offered it not in 3d. It was great.....
You should see it not in 3D it would help your motion sickness. Ha! HA!

Well, that is interesting. My daughter saw it and liked it but she said it was very heavy on the anti-American theme. Almost like a Michael Moore movie. Also anti Marine. Did you feel that at all?? I had decided to not see it, since my son was a Marine for 8 years and I do love my country. Now, I don't know. I guess the awesome effects make it all worth it?? Advice please before I spend $$ to go see it.

Gena,
I thought it was a great movie, generally I don't look for cryptic type messages in something for entertainment purposes, yet the message perceived by me was what happened to the American Indians or Our Native Americans. The Aggressors, whomever they may be use their military might and take what's not there's to take camouflaging it with some sort of; " We are superior and so is our way of life and we can help these people(aliens in this case)." When in reality it's more a Darwinian: " Only the fittest will survive," or it's our right to take this mineral as a fuel source, because we need it and it's too bad you don't like, but were superior and we deserve it. Well, if you see the movie, you get to see some justice unfold, but only in the movies. ;)
Kind Regards, Samson.

thanks samson....usually I would be able to say "well, I'll just wait for the DVD", but I don't think 3-d translates well to the small screen.

I loved the Movie Gina!!! Great job of blending Sci-Fi with Fantasy!!!
There is a very shallow portrial of Marines & Capitalism that did not escape me, but not giving to
much of the story away, you can also see the "Bad Guy's" here as we understand "Babylon" and coming out of her. And a lesson on Christs teaching that we are all one, if we don't mistake the creation for the Creator.
Like Samson, I don't expect entertainment to tell the "ABSOLUTE TRUTH"....by it's very nature it is a story made from someones imagination! The shear creativity and endearing characters in this film will overshadow the weak stereotypes in my opinion. This movie is meant to be seen in the Theaters.
