I think that pretty much every blogger has posted about
Avatar already. I will join the crowd and write: I saw Avatar in 3D. I haven’t
been to cinema in a very long time, but for 3D I changed PJs for jeans and
dragged my butt out. I enjoyed this movie a lot. It is beautiful and, in my
opinion, has a good plot.
Avatar also reminded me about my old post, where I mentioned that people in the 60s and 70s used to believe that by the year 2000 we would have towns on other planets. This movie made me feel a little bit sad for the future we never had. Unfortunately, after the collapse of the USSR, cosmos exploration not only did not progress, but seems to have regressed. I guess it is because for now it is purely a socialistic and idealistic science. It is not commercially feasible, as it does not provide quick financial gain. Money is spent simply on learning. Instead of towns on other planets, we have now smaller individualistic products, such as personal phones, PCs, ipods, etc. Instead of expanding into the cosmos and possibly meet other civilisations, we are becoming more introvert. We are locking ourselves in homes individually and expand into virtual reality. How many towns have you built in PC games? Lots, right? Me too. Although, judging by what happened in the movie, maybe it is for the best. Maybe, while humans confine themselves voluntarily in their cubicles and shoeboxes they do less harm to other possible civilisations.
