Top 5 Reasons You liked Avatar.

Reasons you liked avatar.
5. Everything about it is BIG: big budget, big production, big story, big blue people, big ships with big guns, big timelines, and big creatures.

4. CG has gotten so good, you don’t even realize it’s there.

3. Well written, from a seasoned director. James Cameron has done Terminator,T2, Aliens, Titanic, the Abyss…all great movies. Just like these, the plot in Avatar is beautifully melded to the storyline. Anything from characters that change sides to foreshadowing. You as a viewer, can take the plot elements and put the story together yourself; and be satisfied that you saw it coming. However, it doesn’t give anything away, so all of it stays…

2. BELIEVABLE- many people thought avatar would be a massive flop. The reason it didn’t is because even though it is a alien planet, the elements that appear throughout the story are very closely tied to humanity, and the viewer can easily make the connection (The dogs that attack him, the horses they ride, the hierarchy of the tribe). These are all things the audience can relate to, making us understand the story. It doesn’t matter that its all alien, we still get it…

1. But, the Icing on the cake is though undoubtably…
The Navi way of life. It’s entirely centered around what everyone knows in their heart to be true. Their world is their connection, their life-force. And when you are telling a story, the message is most apparent in contrast.
Aside from being a very entertaining and uplifting movie, what statement does avatar make? It shows you the darkest of humanity and the brightest of purity side by side; and LIFE prevailing in the end. And who couldn’t use a little bit of that now and then?

Hats off to James Cameron, he has combined outstanding special effects with a phenomenal STORY to match. Take that Transformers 2.
