Saw Avatar this evening and must say that it's truly a great movie. I've shied away from 3D before but this time it was incredibly well done. Some have described this movie as an alien "Dances with Wolves". Similar theme but very well done. Great cinematography and the CGI very much adds to the plot, not there for the sake of special effects. The most impressive aspect for me is the messaging the movie conveys. After the disappoint of the Copenhagen accord, the eco-friendly messaging is refreshing. Even more to the point is the anti-war subtext that likely will be lost on Americans who, for far too long, simply invade countries to take whatever they want, whenever they want it. Go see this movie!
