The jellyfish/seed things though, awesome.
Yeah, those jellyfish are adorable. Great way to allude to Cameron's nautical documentaries...
I've seen it on Boxing Day (which is Second Christmas Day here, haha
![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
), and I was impressed. The local newspaper compared the story to Dances With Wolves as well, also to Pocahontas. Truth be told, it's not much of an original story, but the way Cameron has brought it to screen is original. As always, I cried (because I'm a sucker for sad romantic dramas, even though I know it's going to be alright...) but I think part of it was me being overwhelmed by this whole new world literally opening itself in front of my eyes. It's a visual spectacle. Never mind the many plot holes (like where that second Avatar guy went after he returned to the barracks. Last time I saw him he grabbed a gun and erm, left.), it's brilliant and it's new.
I like the way that the Na'vi were so much connected to nature and the 'bad guys' trying to destroy it. Environmental message noted, but it was sent out well, like it was in the Lord of the Rings as well.
I'm rooting for a tell-all documentary on the DVD, which will clarify so much.
