When I saw Star Wars, a friend said "Just another Western". Try not to think of that when they bring out the horses! The integration of 3D scenery and humanoid action really sets the standard for the future.And the depiction of "plants" was mind-boggling. I was disappointed in Cameron's political slant -- every bad guy was a white guy who was "not young". Almost "to laugh". All of that political stuff aside, this is an earth-shattering film that will change the course of the genre for years to come. Bring on the back story; bring on the sequel. NOW!
