Who the hell said it was a racist movie? lol idiots. I thought it was good but the ending was predictable and kind of sucked.
I thought the critics were too busy saying The Frog Prince was a racist movie.
Here is one article I read. I have to browse the my history to find the other things I've read about Avatar being a racist movie.

Avatar is not a racist movie. I'm black and I don't see one gosh darn racist thing about it. The critics are being stupid. Are we not suppose to have movies about how imperialism is wrong? I appreciate movies where heroes from all walks of life stand up for what's right and what they believe in.
So, it wasn't racist but it was however, an AWESOME movie. One of my top 5 favs of all time. :D The art was so well done. I kept forgetting I was looking at a CG world. I really don't care how much money it cost or how much time it took, I'm just glad that it was made. Bravo, James Cameron.
People are idiots.
Of course it's racist, everybody knows white humans are superior to blue aliens.
LoL, it says that the movie is anti-war and pro-environment. Is this supposed to be a bad thing ? hahaha must have struck a nerve in the douche bag department of the US when it become obvious that the rare material they are after is fuel. Go Cameron!Quote:

Pah racist movie!? nothing like it and i definitely think it is the best movie ever writen and the best ive ever seen myself :) i enjoyed it so much and im gonna go see it again before it goes out of the cinema!
While some of the dialogue was cheesy and plain, and the theme was one that had been done a million times before (Dances with Wolves meets Ferngully plus Smurfs), I enjoyed it visually. Very beautiful.
I also don't think Giovanni Ribisi made a very convincing villain. Seems like they gave him a tie and a golf club and a few bad lines. He's usually such a great actor, but I suppose this movie didn't leave much room for talent. Most of the credit was put upon Cameron and his CGI buddies.
Mmmmmm Giovanni Ribisi...

That is so...true lol :D
that's so funny.
i was thinking about the movie twilight and how similar it is to the lost boys.
It was nice visually.
Acting was done quite alright, though nothing special, just average.
But as PP already showed, it was so filled with references to native american culture that, frankly, I was amazed at how few original ideas were used. At the very least they could've made the aliens stand out, not the "Hey, let's take a human, make it 4 times taller, paint it blue, and voilá, alien".
So yeah, fairly entertaining, but very predictable, and nothing new, it's just another CGI-fest.
Avatar was brilliant. Amazing CGI, good and very important plot despite how much it's been told!
The film has actually made me see things differently, i've started to not like economies even more than before. It truely is a film that speeks miles about how we value wealth too highly when real wealth is in the stuff that makes you happy, like a lushous green landscape or a beautiful woman.
Money sucks, but its rules everything, and that sucks as well
I think Avatar's Anti war and pro environment message is quite obvious. Calling it racist because a white person helps an indigenous tribe in the movie is way over the top. Whoever holds that point of view needs to have their political correctness meter examined.Quote:

The movie was good and the money spent on it has already been recovered with a substantial profit. Avatar is now the fourth highest grossing movie.
