Shit sucked, fuck the hype

once again hollywood portrays white people as the hero and american morals and justice as the universal correct thing to do

I'm just guessing. I haven't watched it yet.

Actually, it's the opposite. This is supposed to be a white guilt movie, so American morals and white people are the big bad evil.

But who gives a shit, the only reason to watch this movie is for the pretty effects and Miles Motherfucking Quaritch.

Except for the fact that ultimately white dudes save the day, so it's white guilt while still patronizing primative cultures.

When you hype something to a level that equals and surpasses that of Final Fantasy VIII, there is no way it can live up to the hype.
That said, doesn't change the fact that it's basically Dances with Wolves in space. Not bad, but nothing new.

Though come to think of it, this is the first (and quite possibly the last and only) American action movie I've ever seen where the main guy is a whole lot smaller than the main girl.
Just look at that cute little marine. No wonder she wants to take him home. <3

So was Avatar. Doesn't change that both were extremely overhyped.
