OMG!

That was hugely INCREDIBLE!

WOW!

Hey Dee Jay

Aren't you glad you listened to your peeps? :P

And is it me or do others feel it too?

The destruction of Home Tree feels like 911.

Especially when the columns burst - just before it falls.

I feel connected to the Navi' moreso then.

For that IS their 911.

Luv Kat :)

I was totally stunned!

HUGGS!

I keep thinking about Avatar ;)

I was thinking of how wonderful it would be if someday they could actually grow a clone host body, and transfer my conciseness in to it like in the movie :D

I would of course want a female body :P

Hi Vanna

That sounds more like Surrogates.

A Bruce Willis movie that came to dvd about a month ago.

Everyone had the perfect body to live their life in....

but somehow forgot how to live life.

Another new release worth checking out.

As far as movie magic goes....

Send me into a Harry Potter movie!!

There has to be a spell to turn me into a girl!!

At least polly juice potion did just that in the books!!

Crabbe and Goyle had to be girl lookouts for Malfoy!!

GRIN

Luv Kat :)

I love this movie especially for its plot... It made me cry quite a fews times while I was in the movie theatre... I felt a great connection to the people of Pandora... It was hard for me to watch it, it brought up the feeling of that is how my family was destroyed so many years ago. I am native and most of my tribe was wiped out in massacres and slaughters so for me I was glad people of Earth lost and the normal life of Pandora was left to be what it was always meant to be.

Bought the DVD - Wide Screen.

It was dark - surprised me - much brighter on the screen

Lizzy

I am resisting the urge to buy it til this fall when the director's cut with additional scene and behind the scenes footage comes out..but it's killing me not being able to watch it again :P

Melanie

You know what this is :P

What if this were real? I would love to live through an avatar. The tail would be cool, sure, and I'd love the agility, but I'm just thinking how amazing it would be to live as a male full time and go around topless without having to have surgery.

well as a man, but ya i think it would be awesome... only if it would be permanent (like at the end) and not just for periods of time.

Directing was amazing, effects were amazing and overall the movie looked great, but I was a bit disappointed by the plot and some of the acting, to be honest. I understand that James Cameron was most likely aiming at the mainstream, but I still found myself saying "oooh, come oooon..." several times.

Hmm... Well, I'm difficult to entertain xD

You mean blue cat people Avatar?

Yeah, I hated that movie. The CGI was good but the writing and plot were god awful. But it's James Cameron--go figure.

Hmmmm... funny, I thought i would hate it, but obviously from my earlier post i liked it...a LOT! As a matter of fact I just rented it and watched it today, granted I am not sure i enjoyed it as much this time, but it is still a fun movie.

PS what other Avatar is there? Certainly not that racist, terribly cast, written and directed Air bending thing

I had not ever seen Avatar - I know, where have I been hiding? (Right here!)

On my Birthday this past Sunday Lizzy took me to see it in IMAX 3-D - stunning visual effects and very little of the traditional 3-D "let's throw this at the camera" sort just the forest wrapping around you and the little seeds floating out into the audience - it was used so much better to supply the depth of the backgrounds from inside the amazing control room to the forests and the floating mountains (thank you Roger Dean for painting those so many years ago for the Yes album covers!)

Check out Roger Dean's art http://www.visualgallery.com/yes/relayer_large.jpg - you will find floating mountains, cities - giant trees even multicolored dragons with almost butterfly wings - then watch Avatar again and thank Roger for inspiring James Cameron and the artists over thirty years later.

Love ya,

Sally

When I first saw Avatar I told my daughter the concept for the floating mountains had come from some famous fantasy art but couldn't remember who had done it. Thank you Sally for answering that for me. I love Dean's art but had forgotten his name.

I envy you that experience. I think your IMAX may be the closest one to me!

Love

I liked Avatar. I even bought the survival guide for living on Pandora. I thought it was an interesting read. My main interest is in the plants the creators came up with. I love plants; even if they are just imaginary. They are still interesting. I'm a tree hugger!

This sounds intriguing. I loved the film and could look at getting the guide with any xmas money I may get. My Dad recently got Avatar on BluRay so hopefully we'll be watching it again soon. ^_^ Was definitely one worth going to the cinema to see though!

      My mom has been more accepting of me being trans lately and even promised i could get a binder if i pay with my own money. The preferred name is still an issue. So far my mom, close friends and brother know i identify as trans but no one else does. I recently told mr grandparents about my partner and explaines the perferred name as a nickname they prefer to have. Luckily everyone who knows is accepting but i feel like i still have so much progress to make. Started getting more uncomfortbale being reffered to as my deadname and she/her in public. My therapist is getting me a trans pin for my birthday next time I see her. I have hop but sometimes I feel like the goal is so far. HRT and top surgery are things i know i want but there has been warnings given to me about the problems that come with it from the ones that have accepted me and I trust most. Mainly from the adults in my life that know, also been getting nervous many people dont see me as a man but i also go to an all girl school. being consistenly reffered to as women has started to get to me and have had urge on several occasions to write perferred name on paper. i dont think pereffered name can go into school system due to being catholic school and for graduation diploma we have to contact the person in charge and ask. I just need some advice on what to do, I am thank ful for the advice everyone had given me, made me feel better about future and hope that I can transition but also worry about familial ties and affect. due to most f them being born in the 80's and 90's and not taking it well originally mostly based on my moms reaction. I love my family alot but how they might react is scaring me. my mom still donesnt want them to know. I know they love me but when I eventually come out and medically trasition in several years hopefully, what will happen? there are little kids in the family and I already dont see them a lot, how would their parents react? what would they say to the kids? I know my aunt would not take it well due to political belief and warnings from cousins.

      Maybe.  But they'd probably resent being required to do it.   IDK.  You have to show ID to register already.  And you have to be registered to vote.

      Hah! Woke up the Red Scare!   I’ve never read Marx. I tend to believe in the inherent goodness in people. I let their words and deeds change that. Insisting people are immoral/less than/should not exist, stripping them (or keeping them from) human rights, is an a most basic example of true evil. What evils do LGBTQ+ people present simply existing? How does the Right justify their crusade against us? What justifies the manufactured fear and loathing they spout every day about us?

      Congrats on the new addition @Ivy I have the opposite I have 4 grandson and a granddaughter. 3 of whom are visiting this weekend. I am feeling better. I think the biggest thing is that I got some much needed sleep.   Well gotta go and speed sometime with the grandsons.   Kymmie

      I saw this concert in which it is said that the famous phrase of Jon Landau "I saw the future of rock and roll and his name is Bruce Springsteen" comes from that night. By the way Bruce opened for Bonnie Raitt that night and she was the better performer . . . just sayin'.

      Astronomy and astrophotography.  I have done a few public presentations on the subject and could most likely wing it for an hour without putting you to sleep.   On the other hand if you need a sleeping pill, I could also talk for an hour about flying and you'd be out cold.

      Please consider joining us, even if it's just for a few minutes to see what the meetings are like. I've learned so much, had so much fun and gained confidence in myself just by being a part of this amazing group of people. It's a low key, no pressure, non-judgmental chance to just be among people who are supportive, understanding and affirming of each other.    I'm travelling out of state and still planning on dropping in for awhile.    Come see what it's like!! 
    • April Marie
      Thank you, Susan!! It was such an amazing experience for me. I can't remember if I even talked about it on a Zoom meeting.   Here is the link to the post I made about it. And, again, thank you for helping to give me the courage to do it.
