Looks like quite the technical achievement. Pity the story is Dances With Wolves in sci fi form...

ETA: Some wag called it Dances With Smurfs.

apropos my earlier post, that South Park episdoe makes a lot more sense now. I hadn't heard about this movie.
Dances with smurfs indeed.

US Military BAD! Indigenous population of tree-huggers GOOD!

I was thinking the exact same thing. I sure hope this isn't James Cameron's attempt to do a commentary on iraq and/or afghanistan.

The trailer made me think that Starcraft had humped World of Warcraft. No thanks.

Didn't this thing cost 500 million dollars? Whoever invested in this thing hoping to score another Titanic at the box office is in for a rude awakening.

Pretty, but I'm not seeing a credible story.

Looks like a plot with no depth, but I'll see it for the eye candy.

I was ticked off when I found out this had nothing to do with the cartoon series. Hell, I write better stories than this one.

Actually, there is an
Airbender movie due out next year.
The trailer's much more impressive in the cinema.
