Avatar!!!

" If Grace is with you and if you can look back into her memories, look at our ancestors and see what have we done to our green... we have destroyed our Mother"..
- Jake Sully to Eyma tree in Avatar...

- Saw Avatar today...
- In 3D...
- Awesome Experience!!!!

But the above statement stuck with me long after the subtitles ended... long after I had moved out of the IMAX Dome...

James Cameron is a master in his work.. He has proved that already... but Avatar was more hyped for the time it took in making... for its animation, effects and the humanoid blue creatures...

But I don't think that was the director's only point of view when he started to make it...

- Avatar is not about the $320 million pumped in..
- Avatar is not about the 1000 or so CGI effects and graphics and a "cast" of around 800 animators...
- Avatar is not about the alien world..
- Avatar is about our Earth!!!!!
- Avatar is about a few money and power hungry assholes who think they can conquer anybody and anyhow.
- Avatar is an "Awakening"...
Most people are viewing it as an awakening in terms of technology, effects, animation etc.

But what about the subtle yet strong message that is lurking in behind?

- Avatar is about an indigenous civilisation who are deeply and truly connected to their roots... and not just metaphorically...
- Avatar is about a few good men and women who see through what a skewed viewpoint we have thanks to our technological advancements...
- Avatar is about what our future may look like if we don't stop cutting the trees and wasting our natural resources...

Sadly no body has woken up to this fact. We have been talking about climate change, green hour etc... but we have been doing just that ... only talking...

Its time we should wake up to what Avatar has been telling us...

Its time we should be more responsible and stop waiting for some "Kalki" to come up and fight for us...

Its time we should take the Avatar!!!!!!!
