Well, as mentioned earlier we went to see Avatar this afternoon.<\/p>\n
WOW!<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not the most sophisticated of movies when it comes to plot but the script does hold together throughout the film and the acting is perfectly adequate. Of course it\u2019s the special effects and 3D format which make the spectacular alien world and the creatures that inhabit it come to life.<\/p>\n
The 2 and a half hours or so of film just flew by and left us feeling that the \u00a320+ that it cost us to see it was money pretty well spent. There has been some criticism of the film for its environmental message, some people saying it was heavy handed, others that it didn\u2019t get it across as it could. Bollocks to both of those viewpoints. This is a fairy tale with a happy ending.<\/p>\n
I mean, who would believe that a rich and technologically advanced people or organisation would effectively invade an unspoilt but resource rich region and take what they want by force. I mean it\u2019s preposterous. Who would, by fair means or foul, ignore the feelings, rights and lives of the indigenous population and be prepared to kill in order to exert their control and take what they want. Nobody would want to destroy a complex and irreplaceable ecosystem just for profit \u2026<\/p>\n
You see what I mean just a fairy tale, imagine the mess we\u2019d be in if big business was able to wield that sort of power coupled with military might. The world would be fucked \u2013 yes?<\/p>\n
However after all that what was Suze\u2019s first comment when we left the theatre? \u201cSam Worthington looked really scrummy in that.\u201d \u2013 Always look on the bright side of life \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
