mapping human brain waves and utilizing it in avatars doesnt mean we can make advanced AI. it's like in the 1800s, when people say when we've mapped the entire world, we could utilize its resources 100%. now that we have, we realize that we still couldnt utilize its resources. there are still millions of places to hide. heck, alqaeda still around in afghanistan!

and u missed one, most important point in advancing technologies:

profit and capitalism.

we now have the most advanced portable technology known to man available: the smartphones (iphone, blackberry etc). do u own one? do everybody in this world own one? see where i'm going with this? economy doesnt change. the future world is still governed by economy. it's the whole motivation of humans on pandora.

and by the way, the avatars werent spies. if they were, they are the lousies spies around. why? because they have 5 fingers while navis have 4.

they are there to make contact.

actually, grace have 5 fingers too.

this was deliberate, as describe by james cameron himself. all avatars have 5 fingers, while all original na'vis have 4.

James Cameron should have put in a super villain into the movie if he got trilogy in his mind... like Darth Vader

it is more fitting to have an antagonist that will last till the final episodes of the trilogy for the final showdown...

2nd movie will see the revenge of human mayb? trash the whole Pandora and force Jake and Na'vi to evacuate Pandora hmm.gif

3rd movie will see the return of Jake and konco konco to reclaim Pandora.... thumbup.gif

The story is fiction and children can understand, the message is environment is part of our lives, though we can't connect like them "primitive" we do know about the food chain, life cycle and are damaging our own world.

It is a movie and Star Wars is a commercialized movie with merchandise and fan club and to further ripping money from the the market, the story go backward.
In terms of spaceship design, look at 2001 space odyssey way back in 1968 and you won't believe that it was that old.

My 5 year old kid really love this as much as all the PIXAR movies. As the movie is almost 3 hours, I thought he'll be bored and ask to go home, but instead his eyes were locked to the screen till finish. Since then, everyday he keeps asking for the blu-ray. So we decide to watch it again this Friday, a second time for my wife and him, and a third for me. smile.gif

titanic is based on a real storyline and happening with added drama while avatar is totally fantasy.

which is why JC's "Avatar" failed (storywise).

Sure it was entertaining in grandeur, the moon, the sci fi, the effects....
but the movie didn't move emotions of the viewer, well very little impact, well maybe to some when
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


when watching did we rally in our hearts that we were on the indigenous people NA'vi side against the human invader's ? not really right?

i'm sorry, i know many of you are gutted that not all are in favour of the JC's Avatar, i wasn't even made to hate the character of the Miles Quaritch (supposedly film's main antagonist) as oppose to maybe district 9's, Colonel Koobus Venter (many of us cheered when that character got ravaged by aliens in the end)

sure, avatar may boss their position at no 1 at box, it's however not on my list of rememberable movies in years to come.

go ahead, watch it (avatar) in 3D, & be awed by the movie technical effect brilliance's. cool.gif
