Tail of Avatar

Avatar – a movie plotted with the same old theme, military wanting a mineral available on the otherworld, Pandora, of blue-skinned anorexic people with lion-like tails. A sweet faced scientist turned a crippled ex marine into a Pandorian and sent him through a world warp into Pandora to make friends and negiotiate a friendly purchase of the mineral. The trees of Pandora were tremendous venerable old creatures linked by roots and dominating the country. The blue people swiftly ran and frolicked on the branches from tree to tree. Each bonded with a lovely dragon that would fly them through the chasms and peaks and trees of Pandora. The dragons snarled with vicious teeth bared. Their tails were long and lion-like with which they deftly maneuvered up, down and around the country on large wings according to the blue person on their back, whose flexible ears communicated emotions. The war appeared to favor the military with their rapid firing bazookas. As easily as the Pandorans could fly over and around the clumbsy arsenals of the invaders, their arrows glanced off the battleships. The plot is not new – the changeling fell in love with the Pandoran princess and remained in Pandora. But the scene and players are a refreshing cross between Elron’s world and Darth Vader’s. I watched in 3D and suggest you do the same.
