I'm surprised that more people don't think Avatar missed the mark. Yes, Pandora with its inhabitants, is a visually creative, stunningly beautiful world but that's where the enjoyment stopped for me. Cameron had an opportunity to give us better ways to solve conflicts without violence, but the movie ended the same way every other one does - with a 45 minute bloody, unrealistic, shot-em-up battle. I was so bored and frustrated. The bio-chemical relationship they mentioned briefly between all living things was a much more interesting plot line to explore than how the two can battle each other to the death. I did not see Avatar in 3D, which if I had, might have taken my attention off the plot .
