I was a little distrurbed by this movie. Hear me out, because I found an article on it after I saw it and that confirmed what I thought to be underlying messages...

First of all - great movie.  Not necessarily the most original story line, but incredible 3D and CGI.  All movies should be made using this 3D technology!  Simply amazing.
Regarding the hidden messages...  Perhaps I am too superficial, but I saw this as more of a classic "good vs evil" movie, and I didn't see the America in the evil role.  I saw it as an evil corporation using mercenaries against a gentle defenseless population who eventually rise up and defeat the aggressors.  This premise has been dragged out ad nauseum in Hollywood - Robocop, Terminator, Transformers, any war movie, and even Star Wars.  I certainly didn't see the Galactic Empire as a metaphor for the U.S. of A.  You can probably concoct/interpret race or ecology arguments from any number of movies - intended or not.  Remember the "Jar-Jar" controversy?  Some movies evoke emotions or make you think, and some are simply fun and kick ass entertainment.  For me, Avatar was just a lot of fun with great special effects - an enjoyable three hours.

Well the story is about a private corporation running experiments and mining unobtanium that employs mercenaries or private security personnel.The commander goes nuts in a harsh environment and persuades the boss to vipe out locals to hit the biggest lump of unobtainium
There is no reference to USA or any other country for that matter.
I would agree environmentalist references and i do not think that its bad or anything.At one moment i remember one of the characters say  'theres no more threes left on our planet'.If we dont do something about it now we may endup without trees in future.

My old biology professor said "We evolved from pond scum which learned to live off the waste products of plants". I think the plants and trees will be here long after we are gone.  Doc

She's 8 feet of blue heat!!  We'd have to do something with the tail, however.  Don't need more than one long protrusion in the same bed.

SShhhh, I'm doing her now.


Ok, I'm done. Who's next?
