Dances With Smurfs takes things people do that are good and right and make them out to be sins. Moreover, the political point of view it pushes doesn’t just want those good things stopped, but wants to enslave people.

Did you see the movie?

So, are you saying that driving natives out of their homes and/or killing them to steal their natural resources is good and right?

Where in Avatar is the message of enslavement?

Please. Expound upon these past sins and how they are different from what was presented in Avatar.

Those sins would be the mistreatment of natives. The difference between that and Avatar would be that Avatar is (according to its writer/director) about "creeping imperialism disguised as patriotism," "the way you interact with nature," the way we are "trashing our world and maybe condemning ourselves to a grim future," American conduct of the War on Terror "that cost several hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives," shock and awe and "I think there's a moral responsibility to understand that," and even September 11th.

So, (as I stated) Dances With Wolves is about sins America actually committed, and Avatar is about current American policy that the writer sees as sinful because he is far out on the left wing and eager to propagandize.

Did you see the movie?

No, and I didn't need to sit down and watch Debbie Does Dallas before I was sure there were exposed boobies in it.

So, are you saying that driving natives out of their homes and/or killing them to steal their natural resources is good and right?

No, I'm saying that practicing capitalism and defending ourselves from terrorists is good and right, and Cameron is making them out to be genocide.

Where in Avatar is the message of enslavement?

Leftist politics are about the masses doing what Big Brother tells them to do, or else. Cameron admits he's pushing leftist garbage.

This movie is FernGully: The Last Rainforest for adults. The guy who wrote it, directed it and got a studio to spend somewhere between a quarter and a half a billion dollars making it says so. Somehow, I think he knows more about the themes and what he's trying to accomplish than you do.

Oh...and "unobtanium?" They really called it "unobtanium?" Was there a batlike alien played by Robin Williams in it, too? How about a fairy that defends the rainforest?
