CGiii Comment

The only reason that this is included in CGiii is because a few mad activists are screaming about heterosexual arrogance - wankers!

No matter how many or how loud the arguments are - there's no getting away with the fact that the biggest grossing and most expensive movie is...pretty damn good!

It's a spectacle with remedial dialogue...nothing too taxing nor challenging, it's been designed to entertain...and, it does that job admirably.

Those who remember the work of artist Roger Dean will experience a strong sense of déjà vu...was he credited? You can almost hear the lawyers scrambling!!!

The(ir) Blurb...

When his brother is killed in a robbery, paraplegic Marine Jake Sully decides to take his place in a mission on the distant world of Pandora. There he learns of greedy corporate figurehead Parker Selfridge's intentions of driving off the native humanoid "Na'vi" in order to mine for the precious material scattered throughout their rich woodland. In exchange for the spinal surgery that will fix his legs, Jake gathers intel for the cooperating military unit spearheaded by gung-ho Colonel Quaritch, while simultaneously attempting to infiltrate the Na'vi people with the use of an "avatar" identity. While Jake begins to bond with the native tribe and quickly falls in love with the beautiful alien Neytiri, the restless Colonel moves forward with his ruthless extermination tactics, forcing the soldier to take a stand - and fight back in an epic battle for the fate of Pandora.
