Favorite Movie: Avatar!

Hey you! Yeah you in the corner! Have you seen the movie Avatar that was directed and made by James Cameron? It is that long movie with the blue people. You have not seen it, man you need to see it. What, you do not have money for a television? Man, you really need to see it. I know you just told me that you have not anything to see it, but how about this; I will tell you all about this movie. Good, then I will.

The movie starts off with the main character Jake Sully and he is shipped off to space to go to this alien planet called Pandora. It was not his dream to go there because he was a marine, but since his twin brother died, he decided to carry out his brother’s dream. When he arrives to the planet, we find out the air is toxic to humans and would kill you within five minutes, so they have air masks to wear and they also find out that on the planet live the Na’vi, who are these eleven foot tall people who have tails and head connect thingies along with their signature blue skin. They have only three fingers and a thumb and the creatures that live alongside the Na’vi have six legs and some are very vicious. We also find out that Jake’s legs are messed up causing him not to be able to use his legs.

Jake plays into the story because Grace and others have created many Avatars’ that had human DNA and that of the natives. The human could upload to their Avatar through a link system. Jake takes his brothers avatar and when he first links with it he gets to feel like he really had the use of his legs with him. Even though he helps out Grace, he has to help out Colonel Miles Quaritch by using his Avatar to get close to the natives so when the time comes, he would be able to tell them to leave, so that the people could take the unobtainium under their home that sold for a whole lot of money.

As the movie progresses, Jake find himself in a situation where he is out alone in the wilderness in his Avatar form. Jake meets Neytiri and Tus’tey and he is lead to their village. Neytiri’s mother and father meet him and her mother directs her to teach Jake the way of the Omaticaya. The movie goes on where Jake learns all he needs to know. He eventually falls in love with Neytiri. The place where Neytiri lives gets destroyed and Grace gets shot and dies. In the end there was a big battle between the humans and the Na’vi. The Na’vi win and the humans are forced off the planet with a few exceptions. Jake is one of those peoples because he becomes the leader and is trusted by the people. At the very end somehow the connections that the Na’vi could make to the plants transferred all of Jake into the Avatar body, so he was fully in that body.
