James Cameron envisioned this movie over 15 years ago, long before George W. Bush, 9/11, Iraq, et all. You can apply the basic moral lesson to almost any period of conquest in the past 4,000 years. So, I would refrain from applying this to any one single person/campaign.
On to my review:
I am fresh back from the 7:30 showing of Avatar in 3D on screen #1 at Paradiso.
I am going to refrain from spoilers in this short review.
Let me say this first: This is the movie of the century. Period.
It is hard to fathom that 98% of this movie is CGI because it is REAL. Real, living, breathing, sweating, growling, LIVING. The 3D is less about the schlock in your face value and more about incredible depth of field. It seriously, believably looks like you are looking through a window out into the horizon.
This is the first 3D movie I have ever seen in the theater. I was pretty skeptical going in. But I am a believer now, let me tell you.
The Na'vi are incredibly beautiful. Such grace, cat-like reflexes, and when needed, unbridled viciousness.
The moon-planet of Pandora is a character unto itself, literally. And the landscapes are gorgeous and beyond words. The amazing "Floating Mountains of Pandora" are certainly the sight of a lifetime.
The varied flora and fauna are most realistic. No matter how fantastic they may come off initially, they still have a presence on screen.
If you don't see another movie for the next decade, make sure you see this.
I must say, this new eatery is amazing in it's simplicity, superb value, quality ingredients, and superior taste. Antonio's warm presence and his never-ending smile in the dining room add to the already enjoyable experience. I would tend to disagree with the low score for the "Atmosphere", because even though the room's decor is quite simple in it's execution, I would postulate that it's non-pretentious ambiance, it's obvious cleanliness, and it's overall warmth, allows the food to take center stage, instead of competing with the kind of cluttered, over-the-top kitsch you see in many other Americanized Mexican restaurants.
