AVATAR GOD

After coming out of the theater watching Avatar Yesterday, I feel like so dumb these many days who used to call many other films that I have seen as great ones. Avatar has created a whole new benchmark for the other film makers should target to achieve or at least try to in their life time.

Clearly Avatar is such a kind of cinematic experience that one has to experience at least once in their life time. Many may still argue the story is not great, the emotional quotient of the film is not felt as it is with something like Titanic. But, it just the kind of experience that you have never experienced it till now which makes this film a great one. The kind of imagination/vison James cameron has and able to sustain it over a decade plus years plus you need some thousands of people working on your vision for such a long time and to make sure you and your team are on the same line and don't loose control on your vision over a DECADE is something that tells me the work that has put in in for us to see the film the way it is on the screen now.

I always felt that it is very difficult to project what is there on your mind. But, to show something which our brains can never ever dare to imagine that something like pandora can even exist. This will definitely make other film makers feel like morons in front of him. Each and minute part of pandora is so exotic that I bet your two eyes are not enough to experience it. Be it the different creatures or the deep valleys or the floating mountains or the na'vi people and gracefully beautiful Neytiri who is my personal favorite.

We all are taught since childhood to pray to certain god's and we have god for literally everything. I always used to wonder who created these god's and why should I pray for something which I always see on photographs or in rock statues? While this confusion still remain in my head, I definitely have seen a new god in the name of James cameron who created AVATAR and I will be proud of praying him for this.
