You know, a lot of simians laugh out loud. However...
Corporation uses "Apache" choppers
Gunships are in use in many armies and in the
Avatar future it makes sense a PMC that is tasked with providing security on an alien world would use that kind of assets. What they should use, weaponized executive choppers? You
can buy military hardware, you know. That's how armies get it.
Pocahontas is good, general Coster is the bad guy.
General
Custer was, ironically, a supporter of native rights. Read your history.
Movie made by a Canadian (enemies of US in 1812)
A Canadian who made his fortune in the US. Germany and Italy were enemies of the US in far more recent times and they're now allies. The US fought the British for their independence but then fought side by side in two world wars and then some. Do you believe that enemies must stay enemies forever? Or did you skip history lessons?
Jake Sully is an Australian actor, not American.
LOL. Jake Sully is a
character played by Sam Worthington who is an Australian actor. And another Aussie played Wolverine, who is a Canadian mutant. Ah, and another Aussie (George Lazenby) played James Bond.
So, in order to play an American, you must be an American? I hope you never decide to work in the casting business, you'd be out of a job in microseconds. Per your logic, Mr Spock should have been played by a real Vulcan.
Movie shows indians fighting american cowboys, instead of cowboys fighting indians.
Movie shows
native non-humans fighting
human invaders. Did you check the passport of every merc working for what is depicted as a
multinational enterprise?
- Army soldiers fight terror with terror.[/QUOTE]
They're not
Army, they're a PMC. See the movie again.
Guys with guns are the bad guy.
Oh yeah? The Na'vi use firearms as well as soon as they can lay they blue hands on them. Jake Sully uses firearms. It's an
action movie and gunplay in Cameron movies is always present - even in
Titanic.
The villain is a military guy.
The
antagonist is a
former military guy. The
villain is the multinational corporation operating on Pandora. The
hero and
protagonist Jake Sully
strongly identifies with the Marine Corps to the point of stating loud and clear that "once a Marine always a Marine" and identifies himself as a warrior and a member of the "Jarhead" clan to Neytiri, reinforcing his identity as a
soldier.
Anti-technology:
- Valkerie shuttles do not bite
- Banshee generate less CO2 emissions than Valkerie or Scorpio gunships
- Guys with cool robotic exoskeletons are the bad guys.
- Deforestation is made using incendiaries, instead of using a primitive chain saw or the typical caterpillar (corporation is showing off tech fireworks and gadgets to do evil).
EPIC FACEPALM.
A recurring theme in Cameron's movies is technology misused or running amok, greed against humanity and common sense, and the fact that tech is
neutral. In the
Terminator movies both the cyborgs and chronoporting can be used for good and bad purposes. In
Aliens the main villain are not the xenomorphs but Weyland-Yutani's greed, and the guys with guns are the heroes. So is the babe with the exoskeleton. In
Titanic we have again the theme of greed (Cale and the liner's operator unwilling to put as many lifeboats as necessary).
Do yourself a favour and study up before having the laugh turned on you.
On a side note... My bet is Valkerie shuttles would burn upon atmospheric entry. Right?
It's a SF movie, and they have unobtanium and enough power to get those shuttles
hovering at their pilots' heart's content.
Wrong. On all accounts.
