Heavier Implantation Bleeding With Twins

Avatar Happy New Year

To begin, go ahead I've seen Avatar 2D (in the traditional film, come on), so I have not been able to "enjoy" the "play" to Na'vi or their mounts.

If you read you can find spoilers, so if you have not seen the film see the corollary directly.


argument

Some have said that this movie is Pocahontas and Dances With Wolves but because I have not seen either, I could enjoy it.

The argument is essentially as follows: aliens of primitive culture and biological (in the sense that all its development has been biological, not technological) are a hindrance to a mining corporation that wants to extract a valuable mineral. The corporation takes two parallel ways to deal with this problem: the imposition (Na'vi expel by force) and the absorption (giving culture and goods that can reach an agreement on the "relocation").

The soft path is the introduction of genetically engineered Na'vi bodies controlled by humans to teach language and human culture. This path does not work fast enough, so you opt for taxation.

The problem of declaring a war on aliens is that one of the humans who controls an avatar falls for the boss's daughter and decides to switch sides, resulting in a victory (we fear that temporary) against human Na'vi and expelling the planet. At the end of this human consciousness is replaced in its avatar, becoming one more, 100%, of the tribe.


Special Effects

Forget you're watching a movie synthetic, which has not recorded anything. This is the first time it happens. There must be millions of hours of computing in every scene.

is, I think the characters do not fall into the Uncanny Valley because the distinction between synthetic and real is difficult to appreciate.


Music

Sorry soundtrack of James Horner fails to complete the dramatic scenes . I remember the final battle between the military and human Na'vi but the music was absent or did not fit with the action progressed.

Details to highlight

Is it a sci-fi movie or drama?


I am left with the idea that the sci-fi, even when very well treated, not just an excuse to tell a story: an environment. This implies that those who want to see a story of love and not want to see sci-fi have no problem in seeing the film. Perhaps they expect a great description of the world in 2154 will be disappointed.

Of course, I believe that all progress and machinery that appears is completely real in the sense that may exist in the next century. The mech, helicopters and launch vehicles are well made and technology (Even with the human connection-avatar) is credible. The

Na'vi biological evolution is not credible and talk with Mother Nature either. I say this because it is not normal for Na'vi have a mechanism of neuronal communication with many different living species (three, I remember now.) Who is the mother? "Gaia? "Pandora be an Desiccated Solaris?


Theme human religious, largely absent

Yes, you see a shaman Na'vi, the people worship a deity alien arboreal and are a spiritual people. But What demons believe humans? This detail is omitted and implied that only believe what they see. This in my view is quite simply amazing .

Being ever so close to death ( Pandora is worse than hell said Col.) I am surprised that no military they refer to life after death or any belief (whatever it is). A full-scale error.

The
Na'vi
The film features Na'vi as a group of tribes all have the same culture, language and technological level. This is not credible since Pandora is big enough for two Na'vi nations (given its level of technology) have no treatment ever. The story of the great unification of tribes is not credible, given the great distances (even with riders flying beasts.)

Another curious detail is the fact that assimilation efforts have had no success in any of the tribes, even those living away from mineral deposits.


Corollary view it worth it?

Yes and no.

The special effects are incredible but do not justify spending so much promotion (50% of the budget), as it could have done the same with less spending. Perhaps less technical quality, but just finishing.

argument is not new, some see an environmentalist ideology, but I see the phagocytosis of a primitive culture. Keep in mind that winning the aliens in the movie, but the question is how long? That is, how long will the mining corporation raze the planet? This detail is hidden from the viewer.

find not expect a masterpiece, using only the finest science fiction film (in terms of quality of rendering synthetic ) history.
