Wednesday
My first encounter of a 3D film.
Boy I was blown away.
Rushed off to catch the sneaks after work.
Avatar is one movie which you cannot do without 3D.
So much so that if one watches it without the 3D glasses, he is absolutely not doing any justice to James Cameron’s hard work.
12 years of inspiration, 4 years in the making.
And this director of True Lies and Terminator etcetera seemed to have a perchance for creating roles for muscle men, at least I thought.
The look alike to Arnold Schwarzenegger,
Stephen Lang leads the human cohort to invade the Na'vi's homeland, which is rich in bio-diversity.
James Cameron had artistically created a gorgeous world of Pandora.
Every life form, every movement detail, every scenery, every expression..
That did not come easy if he did not put in immense efforts to spend time observing, life.
The storyline
Though it wasn't something very new to most viewers,
It was original enough for the director to claim his.
Very often,
Films are focused on aliens invading the earth.
This time round, the reverse.
But the same theme remained.
The invaders always find themselves at a losing end.
Another concept that really got to me was
There is a balance to every form of life..
Every death is a form of energy return to nature.
I entered the theatre without any clue to what the movie was about.
But I did leave the cinema, truly deeply impressed beyond words.
