Fuck! Typhoid beat me to posting how Avatar = Pocahontas, Dances with Wolves, FernGully, Etc.

Average story/George Lucas-esque dialogue with amazing special effects. I enjoyed it quite a bit but had more fun at Star Trek this summer.

I was totally immersed in the world of Avatar and was feeling quite euphoric when he walked through the forest and things started glowing, and the part where he rode the dragon thing for the first time. The movie may or may not had racist undertones, and the whole story where the civilized white people destroy then save the savage natives is pretty fucking cliche (and racist...?...).

All in all it was good cinema, although it dragged on 40 minutes past its welcome. And the interspecies fucking was weird.
