This week we review the much anticipated James Cameron filmâ?¦ Aliensâ?¦I mean Terminatorâ?¦no no thatâ??s not right..it was Titanic. Actually, hard to believe, but Titanic was the last Big movie directed by Cameron. Do I have your attention now? I meant Avatar of course!!! Written and directed by James Cameron, with a MONSTER budget of sources say anywhere from 280 million, plus marketing (Los Angles Times) to almost 500 million (The New York Times), but we will not know the real figures for months. Regardless to say this is one of the highest costing films of our time. With the director putting in some major capital to develop the technology that would make his dream of Avatar into a reality. And 161 minute timestamp, they really wanted to get their monies worth.
The movie follows our paraplegic Marine into the world of Pandora. Where the locals are 10 feet tall and BLUE called the Naâ??vi. This environment is hostile to humans but rich in unobtanium (Mike prefers to call it Plot-tonium since it moves the plot along), yeah I know, hard to believe they named it that. The goal is to get to this rock which is worth Billions and the way there is BY FORCE or Peaceful relocation. This is where our Marine, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) comes in, with the help of Dr. Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) and Norm Spellmen (Joel Moore) they intergrate their minds with the human/Naâ??vi hybrid avatars. This is a story on so many levels, listen as we tell our thoughts and take you to into the vivid imagination of James Cameron |
