Message delivered! Cameron style!

Don't believe the nay sayers! Its awesome and the best to come out of Hollywood.
Firstly for people who haven't seen it (if that is possible), Avatar looks great! Is entertaining and draws you into its fantasy world. The floating mountains with waterfalls aren't logical but neither was the cloud city of Bespin.
The storyline is new to my knowledge, the themes aren't. The paralyzed country boy/marine gets hired by the corporation to go into pandora to replace his dead twin brother, for the avatar project. Eventually he has to face off against the greedy corporation which has the army on its side. Where have I heard or seen that latter part before? Today's news I think. Oil, oil, natural resources!
Knowing Cameron, I bet the sequels might be just as good if he writes and directs. I would watch em.
I relate to this movie. If you live in Latin America, Africa or Asia you will relate to it too. This is not an Anti-American or anti-western movie, unless you are one of those unquestionable patriotism types who make this world a better place :). Which is why I wasn't surprised that Hollywood, which caters to an international audience had a couple of clowns, Martin and Baldwin along with Ben Stiller on stage to give Avatar and its makers such a cold reception at the Oscars.
I agree with those who think it will never be the next Star Wars. "It doesn't have the memorable characters". Thats right! We don't want it to be star wars or LOTR. We want it to be Avatar! Its cool, its about real issues around the globe, more importantly it delivers the message in epic style and thats why it became the highest grossing movie of all time. Something which 5 star wars sequels or 3 part LOTR and matrix movies couldn't do.
Its all there. The fantasy world, sci-fi, the story of good vs evil, the powerful vs the powerless and love. Great work J.C. Cant wait for the sequels!
