AVATAR!!

Holy cow, "Avatar" was a frickin awesome movie... If you haven't seen it yet, you better set aside a small three hours for this amazing movie!!! And if you don't know what it's about...
Well, I don't really feel like explaining, so here, watch this if you are ignorant of the storyline behind "Avatar"... (Remember to pause the music at the bottom of the blog before watching this trailer, lol.)



Anyway, this movie is by director James Cameron, and for those of you that don't recognise this name... He's also the director of the Terminator movies and Titanic!

So, well this was the movie I saw today with my aunt, her friend, and the rest of my family... I hate going out with my family (soooo embarassing, though I love my family), but it was completely worth it to see this movie!! The movie has a deeper meaning to it too. It's funny because the Na'vi (the natives of the planet Pandora, aka the blue people) kind of remind me of the Native Americans and the humans were the American colonists who drove them out and took over... The movie could also represent the mass genocide of Hitler, if you sorta think about it... The whole movie just shows that us humans are pretty dang ruthless and horribly greedy! After watching "Avatar", it kind of makes me hate us humans too, haha.
There is a sort of "go green" idea to the movie too... How the humans want to forage Pandora for the rich resources, but in the process completely destroying the beautiful life and forest on it!

See, this is what happens when teachers make you analyze text in school for every little bit of symbolism... It starts happening outside of school too!

Well, that's all I wanted to say. Watching "Avatar" was probably the highlight of my day. That and buying a stupid vampire dating book in an attempt to piss of my boyfriend. (Did not work too well.... -.-) Adios for now!
