I watched avatar yesterday and i liked it. The storyline of movie is slightly different from what we normally see in a typical hollywood flick where in aliens are attacking earth for no reason. But, this movie was different in a way that this times there is a turn of tables and it were the aliens who were at the receiving end. In a way i found this movie a satire on American foreign policies. Its a bravado effort by the director to take this project and make people understand the imperialism propaganda in false pretext of patriotism.
I googled more about movie when i came back home, tried to find more about it. I came across one interesting comment by the James Cameron (avatar's movie director)
"I believe in peace through superior firepower, but on the other hand I abhor the abuse of power and creeping imperialism disguised as patriotism. Some of these things you can’t raise without being called unpatriotic, but I think it’s very patriotic to question a system that needs to be corralled, or it becomes Rome." —James Cameron
Movie displays how humans have become power mongers and are driven totally by capitalistic and political vendetta.
Anyways on other note movie had great cinematography and visual effects.
