My first impression of a great movie: Avatar

Jake Sully is a marine confined to a wheelchair who agrees to move to the planet Pandora (44 years light away from Earth) in place of the dead brother. He was a scientist whose mission was to explore the planet through an avatar. Since the planet's atmosphere toxic to human beings were created in all respects similar to the natives that can be 'driven' from the human who is safely inside the base. But Pandora is not just a place to study. It is primarily a huge deposit of minerals on Earth on which the ecological catastrophe has reduced to zero sources of energy. Greedy businessmen and military are so united in an attempt to plunder the planet. There is one problem: the indigenous Na'vi have no intention of being colonized. The avatar's initial task will be to know Jake's customs and to gain acceptance within their communities. It will thus be able to say whether it is possible to subdue them. Jake knows so Neytiri, Na'vi daughter of a warrior chieftain. From her he learns to become a warrior, very different from that sea and falls in love was reciprocated. From that moment his vision of the changes.

Avatar

Although in the most accessible is essential to provoke a thought. Dive to the Titanic in search of a treasure and he instead reported a trace of memory (the portrait) and then pushing the viewer to wonder about a ship that became, without unnecessary emphasis, the symbol of class division of society. In Avatar, designed 15 years ago but realized in the last 4, the recent lesson of the Iraq war leaves its traces deep.Even more than the ecological discourse that underpins the entire film (with its vision of an energy panic respect) is that the easy labeling of enemies who are especially applicable to those sources of energy that need the strongest marks the most telling. The story always, you say, already seen (cinema) and hearing. But we want directors capable of daring, knowing that all the stories have been told but that some deserve to be repeated with the full force of spectacle that can be put in place.

Avatar will not be the film that will revolutionize the history of cinema but Cameron deserves respect and admiration. Know why and on what subjects to risk, in an era when the vast majority look for the secure payment collection. Honor of Merit.

The Art of Avatar:
James Cameron's Epic Adventure

Cameron is revealed, thanks to the stereotypes which makes extensive use of narrative, a real author. It might seem like an oxymoron but it is not. Tacking quotes generously from the history of cinema (not giving up, for instance, be referred by calling into service Sigourney Weaver, Ripley once, offering entry into a provocative scene with a lighted cigarette, or drawing for the character of the Tsu'tey to Wind in the hair of Dances with Wolves) but fails to transfer into their narrative obsessions.What are those (to name few) the discovery of 'Nuovimondi' from Abyss to the before mentioned Titanic or what it means to feel alienated and on what happens when the perspective is reversed.

But it is above all the mystery of the dynamics of natural and organic in their relationship with science and its products (whether cars like the Terminator, or objects that are both a self and an 'other self' as avatars) that fascinates him . Do not forget, however, making that the public (even the larger, essential to absorb the huge capital investment and reap a profit) is not sufficient to provide the most advanced technology (which does not fail here). Not enough 'astonish'.
