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 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

It was just about as good as it was the first time :lol:

I will no doubt end up watching it again some day :rolleyes:

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!

      I'd love to have a dinner party with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Voltaire, and Ayn Rand.  Would definitely be an interesting time.

      In the forward I learn that transgenderism is bad, and somewhere else that transgender ideology is bad.  I have not yet read a definition of either in the document.  I assume they are the same.  I know Focus on a Family has a definition of transgenderism on their website, or did, but I am not sure this is the same as that.  I might agree that transgenderism is bad if they use a definition I condemn (e.g. transgenderism means you always pour ketchup in your shoes before you put them on - I could not agree to that).  Is someone who believes in transgenderism, whatever it is, a transgenderist? I never see that term.  There may be other definitions out there, but I don't think there is an Official Definition that we all agree to.

      Crazy fact, was gonna go to the school where this went down at before I moved, have a lot of friends there. I know at least one of my friends met the guy on one occasion, not knowing who it was.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>

      How ironic.  I agree with the governor "“You cannot change your gender; you cannot pick your gender…there is a confused group of people that somehow think you can,”    - we are what we are, we are fighting the fact we CANNOT change our gender, which we did not pick.  Many if not all of us would not have picked a trans condition and have sought to evade, deny or move out or resolve it anyway we can.  Those who are confused on this issue are not trans folk.  They want us to change our gender but they deny we can.  Confusion.

      @FinnyFinsterHH no one can satisfy your questions about what will the future hold. But I can advise you to slow your mind down as much as you're able. Take it slow and one moment at a time. This advice goes beyond the practical reality that that's truly all you can do - further, try to enjoy each moment. It's clear you have a lot of aspirations regarding transition. But it's best to try to accept the bounds of your life circumstances at present because if you develop worries or even resentments about them, that will only make you bitter and more anxious. Instead, try to focus on anything you find affirming. Practice positive self-talk and give yourself affirmations too. Try to let go of expectations of your family members - they can only deal with change to the capacity they're able due to their own life conditions. Allow them grace as you wish they would allow you. Practice patience.   Try this exercise - read through your post and make one list of the positive developments and another of things you cannot control (including the future). If you have a sense of spirituality, offer the second list as a sacrifice to however you understand a higher power - leave it in their hands. If you're not spiritual, then offer it up to hope. Then throw that list away. Keep the list of positives and leave some room on it because guaranteed you'll have more and more to add. Look forward to that, but don't let your mind think it can rush things. Try to enjoy the ride.

      I still have not read much of this.  Very little of this document pertains to trans folk.  Some of the statements are more than problematic concerning trans folk.   It certainly was not written just to get us.   " those with gender dysphoria should be expelled from military service."  and "Reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military. Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service,"  https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-04.pdf are two lines out of hundreds if not thousands regarding the Department of Defense, targeting trans folk in an almost off-hand manner.    So if a fighter pilot, say, or a ship's captain, highly experienced and trained at enormous expense, is determined to be transgender (method unknown) the US loses someone badly needed due to the personnel shortage who is ready, willing and able to perform their duties.  Many trans folk have served well and transitioned later.  I don't think this point is well thought out.    A number of policy recommendations I would disagree with.  I am not sure there is a method to discuss those with the authors; I am attempting to find out.  I have good conservative creds.    They are fully intending to implement this, regardless of who the president is, as long as that president is conservative. It is not Trump centered.  I don't think he had anything to do with it.

      I wear a Delimira Mastectomy sleep bra with Vollence sleep rated breast forms. The form fit inside pockets so they don't touch your skin. I bought the bras on Amazon and found the forms on eBay. They were much less expensive than buying through the other sources.

      @LittleSamCongratulations on one of the biggest decisions. Looking forward to your progress.

      I don't wear a bra to bed.  The girls aren't big enough to need it, but still enough to appreciate.  Just a flannel nightgown suits me fine.
