1. Before watching the movie, I was very unfortunate. I first saw Lu Chuan writing an article praising "Avatar". Lu Chuan is a sadist, loves cruelty and blood, and is a very intellectual, keen to package his quirks as "idealism." This kind of person is the best of the celestial dynasty. From the "environmental protection" of "Kekexili" to the "anti-war" of "Nanjing", it is the main theme. He praised "Avatar" and gave me a certain ominous premonition. He said that the director of "2012" only kowtowed. "Knocking", what a heavenly etiquette, but it was so kind and natural to hear from his mouth.

2. Sure enough, Lu Chuan is very amazing, he is celestial, and the movies he praises are also celestial. At the beginning of the movie, the planet "Pandora" showed the beauty of Huangshan or Zhangjiajie. And the stalwart men of this planet have the pigtails of the Qing Dynasty. Seeing the "king of the world" compliment us so much, my face flushed and I was very flattered. My only dissatisfaction is that the movie is still too realistic. Women on this planet are all flat-chested. If, like Zhang Yimou's "Full of Golden Armour", I would be crowded with women from a big country...

3. The story is simple: the US imperialist robbery was met with heroic resistance from the people of the Third World. , And ultimately ended in failure. The evil side is: multinational corporations, American military, white people, boxers. The righteous side are: indigenous people, tribal warriors, people of color, and the disabled. The evil side launched an unjust war in order to plunder the wealth of others. This is really infuriating. It reminds us of the many evils in the history of Western capitalism, such as the East India Company, the Spanish colonists, and the US-Iran war that is not too far away from us. The US imperialism is too shameful. Their large corporations manipulated this war only for oil. Saddam was too wronged, and his innocent people.

4. Yes, a left-wing political propaganda pamphlet, video version. I have always opposed the export of values ​​from the United States to China. In fact, I mean this kind of thing. The United States imported these toxic leftist ideas into us, which is too insidious. Fortunately, our country is not simple. It is courteous, and it exports toxic toys and food to them from time to time.

5. The American values ​​exported by "Ninth District", "2012" and "Avatar" are too harmful. It was a strong self-hatred, and it had reached the point where it longed for self-destruction. They kept them from walking out of the shadows of history and were tortured by the morbid guilt of the Puritans: "The Ninth District" talked about the segregation of blacks, and "Avatar" talked about the looting of Indian lands. The two films together came to an amazing conclusion: even insects and beasts are kinder than Americans. Eventually, this self-hatred rose to hatred for all mankind. Watching the war between earthlings and aliens on the screen, the emotions of the audience were misplaced. They stood on the side of the non-self race and cheered for the merciless elimination of human beings by the aliens. In "Avatar", the male protagonist is a big traitor, he not only led the enemy to kill his own kind, but also turned his appearance into an alien. Michael Jackson's bleached dark skin has been criticized by all means, but he is much luckier, and he is still regarded as a hero by the public after his facelift.

6. The hero of "Avatar" has transformed from a fallen civilized man into a noble barbarian. It's like what Allen Bloom said, American young men are like nature's savages, they expect so, and they are shaped like this. Of course, this is not a good phenomenon, but a symptom of the decline of the American spirit.

7. Many people say that the special effects of this movie are very powerful and full of poetry. But the scene I saw was an aquarium, with seaweed floating everywhere, and those aliens and birds swimming around like tropical fish.

8. Some people say that in this film, Cameron learned a lot from Zhang Yimou's teacher. I assure Zhang Ziyi that it is true. For two nights, the people of the planet "Pandora" gathered on a very large lawn, where the lights were bright and lasers were everywhere, and they were like the citizens of the celestial dynasty, doing group gymnastics and performing collective exercises. It was like a scene The opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympic Games.

9. As a high-tech environmental film, "Avatar" will become an immortal classic. I am afraid that the only thing that can be compared with it in terms of the advanced nature of thought is "Victory of Will". It tells us exactly what is in the minds of environmentalists: chiefs, wizards, warriors, dragons, hunting, tribal totems, telepathy, worship rituals. These environmentalists aspire to become a new human being, a superman with a healthy body and a pure mind. They have duck-egg yolk eyes, beautiful blue tattoos, and a long tail that brings back ancestors.

10. Voltaire mocked Rousseau back then: "Reading your book makes people want to crawl on all fours." After reading "Avatar" and hearing endless praises, people can't help but feel sighed. Voltaire has already Extinct, only Rousseau crawled around. Long live environmental protection, keep kowtow, people of the celestial dynasty, foreign devils are envious of our spiritual civilization, even though they have wonderful skills and ingenious high-tech.
