Loved Avatar - great environmental "Mother Earth" message behind it. I have a theory that folks who didn't like it tend to have conservative political beliefs. Am I right? ;)

That's exactly why it sucked imo. The whole O NOEZ WE MUST PROTECT OUR HOME AGAINST THESE BASTERDZ is so freaking old.

Edit: I just read that you were a Marine. In that case, I'm actually shocked you loved Avatar since it made our military look evil.

Indeed I was. I can say first hand Marines can be absolute assholes and are the best in the world at it. :D

And why would you be shocked? Know what shocks me? Blind allegiance to any country or organization within a country. You think our military is flawless? I could write a book on fraud, waste, abuse and crime in what I saw whlie I was in the Marine Corps. Add in the rest of the military and you could write volumes. The military is a microcosim of society - everything you see in society at large - murder, rape et al happens in the military.

We are fucking up this planet big time. Do you not think it in our best interest to take care of this little orb we inhabit? Do you think we can continue to pollute it with impunity?

Ever heard of the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch"?

I actually didn't like Forrest Gump the first time I watched it...thought it was overrated. Second time around I thought it was much better and was deserving of the hype.
