Yes, it has done horrific damage, but Obama and others think that the best solution to this is to stop drilling in the Gulf. Which would cost the Gulf’s economy, including the fishing industry that’s been reliant on having local oil. Oil kills fish, but it’s also oil that fuels the boat to catch the most fish.

Oil is energy, fuel source that’s holding up society. It energy that transports food from farms to cities, transports goods from factories 100s of miles away, it gives fuel to take irrigation further, it fuels the power grid that’s running almost everything electric. All that you see everyday is made possible by the easy access of energy. Keep trying alternatives, but we found carbon-based fossil fuels to be the most powerful and reliable fuel source there is, but that’s unreplinishable. In fact statisically speaking if we’re to go back to a world without oil, localizing things again, our Earth and oil-free society then can only sustain 1 billion people. How will you handle the loss of 5 billion+ people?

Hey, I’m a believer of “Peak Oil,” but I know it’s not going to be easy to wind down with minmum damage, in fact it’s going to get nasty when everything gets more expensive and less accessible, but to you we can ‘just’ stop and everything will take care of itself.

How can they Humans in 2154 Earth go back? Jake said “There’s no green there, we killed our mother.” Check the background info. and you’ll see that it has 10 billion+ people and that it needs energy to maintain that or it’ll collapse. So humanity is at state where it can’t go back unless the they could help them, but in the end Jake decides to “Send them back to their dying world.” So he rather lets them suffer their richly deserved deaths for all he cares.

Life is nothing but “black and white?” Well I just presented you obstacles that you overlooked and crossed your mind. Ever consider Beaver Dams to be just as horrifically damaging to the ecosystem by how they block rivers? Oh, I thought only humans cause that sort of damage. The world is full of details, your just not bothering to look deeper and just round things up to make it simpler to comprehend.

This is getting awkward by how extensive this argument is going. True I made some declaritive statements, asking for a debate, but this article is all about Inception’s boxoffice success, so we’re carried away. To everyone else reading this, I’m sorry to get carried away, so I’ll wrap this up.

The more intelligence you put into decoding AVATAR, the less in-depth you realize it is. Like you, thinking life is just ‘black and white,’ yet going to so much trouble with the details of the environment and the colors of the plants
INCEPTION, while underwhelming at first, gets better every single second I look deeper in thinking about every frame, edit, and line of dialogue.

‘eviols of humanity’…not of humanity..just greedy corporate/private military contractor INhumanity…all of which can be seen in current events, which get ignorned by the corporate MSM.

‘It lectures by showing things in black-white’

life is black and white…

‘‘Under no circumstances is mining good. Mining is a stupid as unobtanium.’ But if you look at the backstory info, unobtanium is a energy resource that people of Earth depend on with their lives. But that’s deleted, disguising that what reason or motivation the humans have for coming here are ‘really’ for greed.’

Hmm..well here it is…your defence of mining would make you a good PR man for BP…after all our world is dependent on the unobtainium called OIL, which is now nuking the Gulf of Mexico…or hasnt that bit of news gotten past your censor?
Does your life depend on OIL? NO Do human lives in 2154 depend on Unobtainium? NO…if they did how did humans survive BEFORE these ‘necessities’ were discovered?
The Na’vi dont need Unobtainum…and they thrive…humans then as now are boxed in by industrial developments that discover new needs we never knew we had.

How many mofre Chernobyls and Gulf of Mexico apocalypses can humans stand before they get the message: we DONT need the UNOBTAINUMs..
after alll you get by without UNOBTAIMIUM…right? So do the Na’vi….

‘Humans are with few exception, evil and stupid. Na’vi are by no exceptions good and righteous.’ Only good humans are the traitors. And Eywa is suggesting that ‘god is on their side.’ Those humans are not even real people, just cardboard bad guys set up unrealistically by the filmmaker and knocked down to prove in the story how wrong that way of thinking is and how morally superior his own ideology is.

By such declarivication the workings of the film are, it doesn’t engage thinking, it tells what you should think. Nolan on the other hand shows the troubles of being a hero and the temptations of evil in a more difficult manner in The Dark Knight.

Personally, I suggest you check this out instead. He’s more subjective and thoughtful than just to rant or rave about things.

Thats just pathetic…its also NOT what the mass of viewers wanted…as its popularity shows.
So just keep telling us you want a film with no politics no rerflection of our life here and now…just a candy floss entertainment…Well there are plenty of those…

“Industry is destroying the world.” Yet he spent $1/2 billion to make and promote it. How much paper, electricity, oil, etc. did he use? And let’s not forget the toys that came with every McDonald’s Happy Meal.

“Capitalism is the evil of man.” Yet you played the same cards like you did in ‘Titanic’ and make more money than entire 3rd World regions. And he knew he had a trilogy planned out, but he needs a huge amount of money to do it. So it’s all about money to fuel his enterprise that rants the exact thing he’s doing.
==========================

Lets congratulate Cameron in getting Fox to fund a film that is diametrically opposed to all that Murdoch and Fox believe in…
whose lecturing you? There were no lectures in the film, Robert…Its clear you object to Camerons telling it like it is….that showing a mining corporate consortium as they behave today on Earth….as the rest of your rant serves to indicate.
Or what would you featre in AVATAR if it were your film?
AVATAR is about the destruction of our world here and now by capitalist entities..and clearly you hate to be reminded of that.

Inception, even though it’s all about the invasion of the most personal space, their minds, he didn’t preach or rant about how it would abuse human’s rights and give it political issues. He makes it be about people and how they’ll use that power for better or worse from a subjective standpoint.

AVATAR was nothing revolutionary, except with visuals that are supposedly used to compensate for a black-white, no intelligence required story. Odd that he himself declares that he complains about industry and capitalism and makes AVATAR that uses all the same workings at a ridiculous budget, uses McDonalds to promote the film, while living in his mansion. The Oscars came, they weren’t convinced, he lost and still wants people to watch it the most expensive way.

I like ‘most’ of Cameron’s films, though his only masterpiece was Terminator 2.

thats a rant! only you seem to favor greed and excess.

films that rant about greed and excess…so you approve of greed and excessive?

You also criticise AVATAR for being…popular…! LOL

‘audiences unhealthy obsession with his single brainless, black-white, childishly conceived film with the most the expensive wrapping

AVATAR is so popular BECAUSE it struck a socia nerve)that you dont possess)that is angry at greedy excessive corporate indifference to the environment andd indigenous cultures…eg BP and the amazon indians…
