Media Analysis: AVATAR It all began in the year of 2154 when a crippled ex-marine named Jake Sully “saved the world”. He takes part in a program invented by scientists which put him on an alien moon called Pandora. Jake is introduced to an Avatar body which is the combination of ½ human body and ½ alien body basically controlled by the scientists who created it. After watching Avatar, for the first time, I realized that this film had different worldviews mixed together. Somewhat confusing to me

Avatar is a film that illustrates a money hungry corporation searching for unobtanium. Unobtanium is a valuable rock worth over 20 million a kilo. In order to mine this rock the company must push away the population of the Na’vi, the indigenous people of the planet, Pandora. The way the Sky People interact with the Na’vi when they first get to Pandora was similar to the way the Europeans and First Nations interacted. The Sky People are only there to get the resources, so they try to push the Na’vi

The films, Avatar and WALL-E share a common theme in the aspect that they are both about the ecological destruction of worlds. However, Avatar is the intentional ravaging of an alien planet while WALL-E is the accidental environmental degradation of our home planet, Earth. The two movies share a converging theme about the use of advancing technology and the ethics that come along with the ability to do more because of this technology. In both films, we as humans fail to use this technology ethically

For this paper I will be comparing Avatar (2009) and Dancing with Wolves (1990) which are two very acclaimed movies that in a sense are very similar to each other but at the same time do not share the same themes or story line. Avatar, which is Fantasy/Science fiction movie directed by James Cameron released on December 18, 2009 being the world’s highest-grossing film of all time and is one of the most prosperous movies of the last few years. It has been nominated for nine Academy Awards and has

MO’AT Avatar required 10 years to complete and was a visually stunning. A film with visionary technology, graphics, and film techniques. Director James Cameron developed and pioneered many of these techniques while creating this film, and propelled motion capture technology and film to a new level. The characters were well written and the actors chosen fit their roles very well. One of the characters in this epic film was Mo’at the spiritual leader of the Omaticaya clan. (Khare, 2009) Background

In James Cameron's film Avatar, the protagonist, Jake Sully, undergoes a change throughout the narrative, this being from an apathetic soldier to person who thinks about and cares for the world around him. Jake is important to us because he allows us to understand the dangers of our actions. This idea is represented to us through characterisation and dialogue. At the start of the film Jake Sully arrived on Pandora searching for a purpose in his life. He states early in the movie saying “all I ever

CLASS: Anti-villain, I guess? Unlike most villains in Avatar, Mai doesn't have any fantastical racism or evil agendas that she's pushing. She's just doing it for shits and giggles. With that, she's capable of working for evil people, but even then, she's mostly apathetic to the job. Once she quits working for Azula, she actually assists Team Avatar. HOUSING: Please pick for me the wackiest housemates you can find! BACKGROUND:http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Mai here you go!!! PERSONALITY: In terms
