Anti-whaling propaganda?
I haven't seen it yet but a friend told me it has anti-whaling propaganda. Is there truth to this? I usually don't like preachy movies.
shareIt's actually anti-human propaganda. Everything the aliens do is perfect and harmonious and respectful of nature, and they have no diseases or irritable bowel syndrome or old people or infighting or murder or rape or voodoo or superstitions, and everything the humans do is cowardly and evil and greedy and short-sighted and revenge-driven and anti-family. They can fly a dozen lightyears in fantastical starships but they can't synthesize their own whale goo, and despite the whales being fully sentient telepathic creatures they laugh as they brutally hunt them to make cream for old peoples' faces. The Na'vi of course swim with the whales in oceans that never have silt, and empathize with them, share their pain, and sing sweet poetry to them as they take a genuine interest in the whales' rich family lives.

Didn’t one of the sea teenagers lie to Jake’s second son after they got into a fist fight by leading him out to sea by pretending to go fishing with him, then abandoning him to be eaten by that giant killer fish? I don’t know if that was very harmonious. It could be called attempted murder. Haha. 🤔 share
I thought the exact same, it was atrocious, yet Sully's kid lied to protect his potential murderers, just because the plot needed an excuse for them to be friends.
shareYeah that was weird. The characters react as if the sea-bullies had played some prank on Jake’s kid, when in fact they tried to kill him. Attempted murder, as you say.
