Holy smokes! Just saw 'Avatar' with dad. Okay, so the story isn't very solid, but still a LOT more there than 'Transformers2' but watching it was like literally traveling to another part of the universe! Like 'Lord of the Rings' did before, this is a new definition of CG that will be hard to beat at least for a while. The faces of the avatars looking like their respective humans was nothing short of miraculous! The story got a little preachy at times and I'm not sure how well this will go over in Cracker America with 'US' marines being the bad guys and getting their ass' kicked but just like it's been on earth the story of history has been conquer the less powerful, ESPECIALLY if they are sitting on top of something that's precious. Pandora reminded me of some of the artwork Roger Dean did for Yes' album covers in the 70's. Great stuff!
