Discussing here is silly: this is a fiction movie, so you are not talking about real people. If you want to discuss something real and very similar to avatar story try to discuss about the brazil forest and the natives who live here. "Evil industries" vs "natives" and "nature" for real! And "humanity" saying nothing, because the point of our lives is to have "blue jeans" and mobile phones. Look, it's very like avatar story, isn't it? Discuss about that, instead.
The critical snowball of this films just keeps getting bigger. All sophistication and no substance. A sermon approx. 3 hrs. long. Don't expect to learn a single scientific fact. Your knowledge of life on earth will be greatly insulted. It is sure to leave a bad taste in your mouth, if you are a thinking being.
Ugh. Does it really matter? Can't it just be a visually stunning movie w/o people reading reading into the "hidden message" or "political agenda"? Cameron did a spectacular job working out even the most minute of details. Bravo for a gorgeous, new-style piece of cinema!
Colonel Quaritch is not evil but greedy. THERE is no villain as James Cameron stated that. As for Jake Sully he betray the human race in the sense of killing his own species but for the other part he helped the Navi.
What the..? "You out of your Jarhead mind?" That wasn't in the final cut, that must have been some extra footage or something because I did not see that in theatres.
i say "beauty in the eye of the beholder" because it can go both ways... 'evil' nowadays is all about perspective... but i'm not the judge for anyone else... just me
"beauty is in the eye of the beholder." perception of the badguy is skewed. i heard before i saw the film that is was very clean cut in who was good and evil, but now it is clear to me that it was basically blindness that caused distruction. so Jake was not, in my opinion, a traitor of humanity. i believe he was preserving it by acting on his feelings. its possible to argue that he betrayed his ppl, but he was preserving life which is something that many humans value over riches-just a thought..
The debate going on here is ridiculous. This movie is just a visual spectacle. I would have thought any child over the age of 5 could understand the blatant moral of the story.
Jake did not betray his spieces, he was representing the best of our spieces - those who fight on the side of the weak against evil opressors. The only people who betrayed the human race were the greedy and savage RDA and their morally bankrupt Colonel Quaritch
2.) why would you wona live in a forest with dangerous animals?
we are inteligent now, we have machines (well very soon) computers, internet so on...
humans use to be like the na'vi with nature but we went are own ways (sceince & technoligy) and now i gess we are destroying nature, i can see the earth "dying" in the future because of humans and to be honest... i really dont care
@Jake206ify I feel sorry for you to not to be able to feel the your attacchment to the earth. To bad you have never slept in the outdoors feel the cool rain see mother nature in her real glory
Avatar..yes its a good movie with lot of imagination. But the story is old...In this case Humans invade a virgin land (planet) in the deep space and destroy the life and culture , humiliate their beliefs about nature, destroy the the bond between living beings and the nature.......well few centuries ago British, did the same to the Buddhists in Asia,Innocent Africans in African Continent by killing,humiliating, destroying those precious civilizations!! be ashamed !!!
@warusawa Yes but no story is new. I think the point of the movie is to show Americans that there army are doing just this in Iraq today! Invading killing and taking the natural resources. It may not be new but if people stopped doing the same things then writers would create new stories.
@WillShakespeare2007 what makes you think that they where American they where from earth didnt say anything about what country they where from. And if the invasion of Iraq was over oil why dont we have it. when i left there last month the Chinese where running the oil fields.
@warusawa it was not only the British Thur out mans history we have conquer each other for land wealth. It is the nature of man. So don't put this on any one group or race. Just look at the history of the human race
colonel quaritch not a villan? he goes to pandora wants all the resources some of witch are under the big tree thngy were the navvi live he cuts it down only for the resources not giving a shit about the navvi and u say he aint evil?
Jake is a traitor the way Germans who tried to assassinate Hitler were traitors. If your country or race or whatever is committing murder and atrocities, then you have a moral obligation to stop them, by any means.
Hitler is way different then Jake, and if u were in love with a woman, u just leave her without saying goodbye. I think Jake also stayed on Pandaro because he was chosen and in love with Neytiri.
@BornEntertainment True, love was a definite factor, but he also fell in love with the people and their world. He saw his world as a destructive, life-sucking force ("They killed their mother..."), and in contrast, saw an untouched, preserved world that was in balance with itself.
There is no villain in Avatar. No good guys or bad guys. Cameron perfectly stated that there is simple no good or bad guys. Quaritch is not a villain.
There is NO villain in Avatar. It seems you guys watch this movie over 5 times and still dont get a simple thing. There is no good or bad guys. It's was the decision of Jake helping the Na'vi which makes him a traitor. CAMERON stated that there is no villain so stop saying Quaritch is a villain because HE IS NO. PERIOD
Colonel Quaritch wants to kill a race of sentient beings because they won't let him ruin their home and soul just so he can mine his unobtanium and get paid. Last time I checked, killing a race trying to protect their home for an unjustified reason makes you a bad guy.
@klote2314 THANK YOU for taking some perspective. The Na'vi were obviously the characters in this /fictional/ story meant to evoke empathy from the audience given the mistreatment of their world and lifestyle.
He was just doing his job, he used non-lethal force to move them from there homes and then when the battle is joined he was fighting against a huge enemy force with no non-combatants amongst them!
Quaritch is soldier, and damn good one! He gets his order and follows it no matter what. As a commander he expects same from his subordinates. Quaritch has no loyalty issues and knows perfectly well where his side is. Old school.
You are Stupid. Jake did not betray the human race, he betrayed a greedy corporation, and he betrayed the bloodthirsty Quaritch. Quaritch and the RDA (the greedy corporation) do not represent the human race, they are only representing themselves and their Selfish interests. The vast majority of humans are on the side of Jake and the Na'vi. It is Quaritch and the RDA who are betraying the human race, by making us all look like a bunch of greedy warlike savages.
I would love those resources from Pandora. It takes time for those blue cats to move out of the way. I would try to be nice but if it takes too much then I will beat the crap out of them. Even worst than the movie.
Let me make this clear because i don't want to explode like James Cameron. First of all, there is NO villain in Avatar. Colonel is not the bad guy instead Jake is a traitor of his own race. Cameron perfectly stated that there is no villain in Avatar.
James Cameron's $1 billion sci-fi epic Avatar has been hit by accusations of racism.

Hundreds of blogs, YouTube videos and Twitter postings have sprung up on the subject since the film's release three weeks ago, with one writer dubbing the 3-D extravaganza "a racial fantasy par excellence".
That's what you might've seen him before without knowing as he has played a general in a movie about the US civil war, and he had a beard. He playsin the movie Gods and Generals. You may have seen him as the stone cold Texan agent who killed and heard the last words of John Dillinger in the new Michael Mann movie, Public Enemies which starrs Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. :)
@Celeon999A Hey was in a civil war movie. Its called "Gods and Generals" He played the role of General Stonewall Jackson. He also played General Pickett in the movie "Gettysburgh"
I'm not sure if you're kidding or not, but he did play General Pickett (of Pickett's Charge infamy) in "Gettysburg" and Stonewall Jackson in "Gods & Generals."
He played an ok bad-guy, but wasn't all that bad in the beginning. The ultimate bad-dude was the guy that played Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) in the movie Gladiator. Everyone in the theater felt blood-lust and wanted that guy to die a slow and painful death.
even though he is playing the part of an evil person, hellbent on destruction without any regards towards humane actions...I have to say he is a straight mutha fukin badass
Am I the only one that sees Stephen Lang as the best human possible to star as Duke Nukem, had they made a film about it? ROFL! This was a cool movie. the liberal far-left overtones kinda made me nauseous, but the rest was awesome!
@mmmmmarcus Yeah the liberal far-left overtones such as violence is bad, exploitation of a peoples is bad and tearing apart the planet you yourself live on is bad! If that's far left sign me up because otherwise things would be very messed up.
The best movie...anyone that hasn't watched it should while it is still in theatres cause it won't be the same anywhere else...and if you've already seen it watch it again so it goes to the top grossing box office film in history...it's already at 4th place!!! Alright people?!!!
Oh yeah watch it in 3d if u can, specificly IMAX!!!! Ur goinna enjoy ur dreams the night after u watch this if u aren't in too much of a daze...lol
just get over it, everyone has to see that this is a good movie in one way or another. i think its amazing & im going to go see it again before its over
It isn't really that he goes against humans at all, hes going against RDA the company that has no respect for anything except money. If there were Na'vi with RDA he would have killed them to our any other alien races

He played an ok bad-guy, but wasn't all that bad in the beginning. The ultimate bad-dude was the guy that played Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) in the movie Gladiator. Everyone in the theater felt blood-lust and wanted that guy to die a slow and painful death.

even though he is playing the part of an evil person, hellbent on destruction without any regards towards humane actions...I have to say he is a straight mutha fukin badass
xstreetsurferx 2 years ago 5
But he did tried to be humane at first. Sometimes you just need to get the job done.

Africa this is your wake-up call!
Jack Sully turns on his "white" devil race. He joins the NA'VI to free their planet Pandora.
Africans this is what you must do to free the Mother Land from the "white" devils there; still raping Africa!

Stephen Lang was supposed to play Corporal Hicks in Aliens but Michael Biehn got the role in the end.
Even after all those years Cameron remembered him and proposed the role of Quaritch to him personally.

Am I the only one that sees Stephen Lang as the best human possible to star as Duke Nukem, had they made a film about it? ROFL! This was a cool movie. the liberal far-left overtones kinda made me nauseous, but the rest was awesome!

MrDevlance 2 years ago 11
@mmmmmarcus Yeah the liberal far-left overtones such as violence is bad, exploitation of a peoples is bad and tearing apart the planet you yourself live on is bad! If that's far left sign me up because otherwise things would be very messed up.

It isn't really that he goes against humans at all, hes going against RDA the company that has no respect for anything except money. If there were Na'vi with RDA he would have killed them to our any other alien races
