Dont worry there arent any spoilers......... think of me in parenthesis as the commentator
12:51amNathaniel
omg avatar won best director
12:51amAdriel
gah
so he was on oprah
12:52amNathaniel
james cameron didnt even have a speech
12:52amAdriel
and he told oprah that he did have an agenda with making that movie
he was purposely putting all of the spiritual stuff in there to propogate it
12:54amNathaniel
yeah
no
12:55amAdriel
yeah he was
he said so himself
and then oprah said that everyone should go see it for the spiritual message..especially women
so you know now that like..hundreds of women are gonna go see it now
12:58amNathaniel
haha i think more then hundreds of women are going to see it already
12:59amAdriel
yeah but not specifically to see what the spiritual message is
1:02amNathaniel
there more of a spirtual message in disneys pocahontas
1:04amAdriel
mm not so much
when a director is saying
that he got a bunch of botanists
to name these alien plants he's made up in his movie
1:05amNathaniel
and.......
1:05amAdriel
because he's trying to rival tolkein, and promote mother earth worship because its something he's always believd or whatever
1:05amNathaniel
so from all that im hearing is
avatar is
1:07amNathaniel
an anti war , earth worshiping , 9/11 environmental film
im not buying any of that
1:07amAdriel
well i don't know about the antiwar 9/11 bit
but the director talked about the mother earth worshipping stuff himself
so it doesn't really matter if you buy it
it just is
1:08amNathaniel
yeah all director who make movies like this do
1:08amAdriel
not really
i mean, obviously they put their beliefs into a film
but not all of them so vehemently ( I don't know what that word means)
1:10amNathaniel
ur giving the film to much credit
1:13amAdriel
not at all
you're giving it not enough ( if this was a drama we'd probably kiss after this line)
media has a much wider influence than you give it credit for
and especially when spiritual stuff is inolved
*involved
1:14amNathaniel
yeah so its going to a couple poeple (this sentences doesnt make sense... it makes dollers =0)
1:16amNathaniel
but spiritaulism isnt what this films about
not nearly
1:16amAdriel
if the director himself says it is on national television ( because poeple tell the truth on national Tv)
it is
no matter what you think its about( becuase it doesnt matter what i think what an ass hole)
1:16amNathaniel
k
ur wrong
1:17amAdriel
no i'm pretty sure i'm right about this
1:17amNathaniel
let me explain
1:18amNathaniel
let's say little micheal bay comes on oprah to premote tranformers 3
1:19amAdriel
and? ( no patience im typing this on my phone)
1:20amNathaniel
he most likely isnt going to say " i just like to blow shit up and thats what this movie is about shit blowing up"
1:21amNathaniel
no his going to talk about metaphors about how the film pertains to the world and has a deep sentimental meaning or at least some releavants
now avatar is a bit
different ( i didnt get to finish my point here)
1:22amAdriel
not convincing me
1:22amNathaniel
hold on a sec
1:22amAdriel
i really don't think this guy just said all that stuff for the hell of it( and she doesnt hold on for even a second)
1:24amAdriel
there's a difference between metaphors
and spiritual beliefs
1:26amNathaniel
k wait what are u acaully saying about the film ( this is for all the kids at home)
1:26amAdriel
i'm saying that the film promotes mother earth worship, because its obvious just from watching it. and then on top of that the director said that was his aim
1:38amNathaniel
have u seen the film in theaters yet?
1:38amAdriel
nope
my parents did( of course cause i give a shit and its relevant to the conversation)
1:38amNathaniel
k so u really havent "seen" the the film
1:40amAdriel
i downloaded it
i just haven't seen it in 3d
1:41amNathaniel
thats like waching the movie with half the script cut out
1:41amAdriel
not at all
now if i were to watch the movie and not have the subtitles when the navi speak..then maybe you could say that
1:43amNathaniel
not thats not what im getting at
1:43amAdriel
what are you getting at then?( your pants)
1:48amNathaniel
seeing in good quality and in 3d is an integral part of the movie
1:50amAdriel
are you inferring that because i didn't see it in 3d i can't produce a correct analysis of the movie?
1:50amNathaniel
yes
1:50amAdriel
well, no offense, but that's ridiculous
1:51amNathaniel
you make it sound vain but for this movie its kinda of important
and yeah it does sound ridiculous i know that
1:51amAdriel
well i'm not analyzing the movie based on quality
i'm analyzing the message
and i'm not even analyzing that much because the director put it all out there blatantly
and 3d has nothing to do with the message
its an effect
1:54amNathaniel
its the film was shot its a part of the feeling of the film that effect the message but in all serious this is a really dumb arguement. we both got something different out of the film and we probably are never going to be able change each others minds
1:55amAdriel
the difference as i see it is, you think you know everything about movies and therefore think you can critique them with authority(cunt)
i don't think i know everything about movies, but i know a lot about spirituality, religion(we should kiss)
1:56amNathaniel
thats not what im saying
1:56amAdriel
no, but that's very much how you act
and are perceived
over
and over again
when talking about movies
and if this were just a conversation about
effects
or acting
1:56amNathaniel
well im sorry ( pretending to be sorry is the quickest way of getting into somebodys pant)
1:56amAdriel
i really wouldn't care and would probably just let you go on about it
but its not
its about something a lot more important than that
because what people believe, and how they use it is very crucial to the welfare of others
1:59amAdriel
basically anything that propogates a belief that is not centered in Christ is dangerous. whether a person feels that's serious or not, it just is.
2:00amNathaniel
ok i totally agree with u
2:00amAdriel
well the previous conversation we had about avatar
you were saying that it didn't affect you that way, so i was wrong
and this was even before the director was on oprah
2:01amNathaniel
i just dont think spirtualism is the main point of the film and im not saying the film doesnt have any
2:01amAdriel
and i really don't care about being right, its not about that for me. its about what's true and what isn't( wait this doesnt really make sense either)
if its not the main point, its the second main( or secondary point for those out there
2:02amNathaniel
oks
2:03amAdriel
and it will affect people, whether on a conscious level or a subconscious level. everything does..especially if it has anything to do with spirituatly
2:04amNathaniel
ok so ur saying the films dangerous on that level
2:04amAdriel
yeah
Ok you heard it here first avatar the movie with almost no plot is dangerous and think the funniest thing about this conversation is we both didnt use any plot points to back up are points. Anyways sorry jimmy cameron maybe ur next movie "battle angle" will be safe for the masses.
