Just got back from Avatar

[Clickme]

Yes, new thread. Didn't wanna take over the other one.

I typed all of this hte moment I got home, and saved it in Word pad.

I just got back from Avatar and... just whoa. M-my hands are still shaking. The movie ended over 40 minutes ago and I'm still racing to catch my breath. My head is still back in that theater, and I didn't even see it in 3D (theater we were at was the one out of all 3 that didn't have 3D)! But oh... my... God...

I... I don't even know where to begin. I mean, I had heard the same things everyone else did; that it was a great movie, nothing like it, original, awesome, the best thing ever, and I psyched myself up, at the same time I knew that doing so might bring me crashing down if it wasn't as good as I had built it up in my head, like playing FF X-2 >.< But, wow... I mean, I had the highest hopes, let myself imagine what it must of been like and still, even letting myself run with it, I could not prepare myself for what I saw. My head is still in that theater, and I wish I was too. I mean... there are just not enough words, nor do any truly convey what it is I jut saw. It was the most amazing, unimaginable, work of true art and dream and life and REAL art, that I have ever seen. There is nothing else I can say.

I had to write this all down, because there was no other way I'd be able to post it on every site, every forums, and in every IM I can today.

I am still filled with wonder and awe beyond anything I can remember. And that music... the music is still playing in my head, and filling my heart every time I think about what I just experienced. Every time my heart rises and my wonder soars anew, the music rises with me, and if I let my ears do so, I can still hear all the sounds and creatures and that wonderful, wonderful music... Should I find myself in Heaven one day, and God is merciful, my every moment from then on to eternity would be followed by those sounds, and that wonderful, wonderful audible art.

Even now, nearly an hour after the movie ended, I am still moved to joy and to tears and to exuberance by what I have witnessed... God, if I could, I would stay there forever and never leave. That movie... that World... I want that. Forever.

I have never been so moved, never been so utterly speechless that I had to work every word I know just to keep sane! I have syllables running in my head, sounds and voices that are all trying to put something together to mean something that could possibly make up for the wonder and awe that have taken my voice. Hell, even typing is hard. I still haven't been able to say anything but "...wow..." since I left. And even when I could, I was never able to finish a sentence of loss of words.

Every time I go to stop typing, I find new things to say, as if the wonder that I find myself filled with is powering my fingers, my mind, and even still my heart.


...and that was all 2D...

Oh I plan on it, but I'm going to wait. I have a friend that I promised I'd see it again with. She never got to see it yet, so I said I'd take her with me to see it in 3D, that way it's new all over for me (the 3D-ness), and new for her all at the same time ^_^

If you would like to see something a lot like it in forms of plot, message, visual themes and more watch fern gully. Avatar has the better graphics over all but fern gully had the better characters and plot. The imagery is the most striking similarity between the two and unfortunately what most people consider the most original in avatar.

Visuals that were highly similar: The leveling machine in both were almost identical. The tree where everyone lived were both spiral in shape. The way things glowed as people walked over them.

Wow! Nothing's oregano! Pizza please!

Actually, I find the humans in Avatar to be much crueler. It's one kind of evil to mow down a rain forest. It's a whole other kinda of evil to go to a new world, and assume you have every right ot anything there at the cost of anything you see as expendable, including lives.

In Fern GUlly, humans were simply over indulgent, ignorant assholes.
In Avatar, humans were virtually Terrorists

I mean, they jsut rode up to some completely new world, landed and said, "I'm gonna fuck you over for a profit becasue I think I have a right to fuck over any world I wish."

I have never booed the human race so much in any movie, bar none.

Oh, well, that's pure unregulated capitalism.

Yeah, and it makes me a little sick. >.<

I cried a little, both for the impact of that scene with the fire and the missiles and the thing (no spoilers), and for the fact that yeah, that's who humans actually can be.

Of course the fact that that particular falling thing reminded me a hell of a lot of the Twin Towers falling didn't help.
