It's a Vatican review of the movie. Not the bashing some people have been giving the awesome movie for being racist or whatever, but this is based on a religious front. Mostly about how we *as a society* shouldn't venerate nature and worship "it".

Thoughts?

I already saw that one and had a good laugh. I mean, who knew the Vatican was now taking over as head movie critic? I haven't seen Avatar yet, but I'm sure it'll be a good movie, and get even more money now that the Vatican hates it.

personally i liked the movie "Avatar" it reminded me of the struggle that the Native Americans had (kinda) to keep their lands. though the ending to this movie was better than the end to the Native Americans. all in all i really did like the movie and i don't know why the Vatican is making such a big deal about the topic.

I thought it was one of the best movies i've ever seen, but that's just my opinion.

My impression was that Avatar was a 3D ripoff of Pocahontas.
