So i logged onto MSN and i saw this in the "Today" pop-up and read: Is 'Avatar' Racist?

and i thought woooooooow, this movie has enough hype as it is
i saw it in 3D thought it was good, but my head started hurting because it was 11:30 at night until almost 2 in the ****en morning, so that didnt make me like it too much, but read what these people have to say:

" "Avatar" is being criticized by a small but vocal group of people who allege it contains racist themes — the white hero once again saving the primitive natives. "

" Since the film opened to widespread critical acclaim three weeks ago, hundreds of blog posts, newspaper articles, tweets and YouTube videos have said things such as the film is "a fantasy about race told from the point of view of white people" and that it reinforces "the white Messiah fable." "

" In the film (read no further if you don't want the plot spoiled for you) a white, paralyzed Marine, Jake Sully, is mentally linked to an alien's body and set loose on the planet Pandora. "

" Adding to the racial dynamic is that the main Na'vi characters are played by actors of color, led by a Dominican, Zoe Saldana, as the princess. The film also is an obvious metaphor for how European settlers in America wiped out the Indians. "

" But she said the film, which so far has the second-highest worldwide box-office gross ever, still reminded her of Hollywood's "Pocahontas" story — "the Indian woman leads the white man into the wilderness, and he learns the way of the people and becomes the savior." "

" "It's really upsetting in many ways," said Lee, who is black with Jamaican and Chinese ancestry. "It would be nice if we could save ourselves." "

" "When will whites stop making these movies and start thinking about race in a new way?" wrote Newitz, who is white. "

Title FAIL.

NOT RACIST! This is bullcrap. I think this is just people wanting to get attention so they're calling the movie racist. I mean Avatar is NUMBER TWO on the HIGHEST GROSSING FILMS list. Number one is Titanic with 1.8 BILLION....

What's next? The movie is sexist? Because the hero is a male? OK. WHATEVER. People just need to get over the racist/sexist issue with movies. The director isn't making a white hero to be intentionally racist!

i know its not racist o_O but that is what people are saying about it.

also how is it a title fail?

Avatar = RACIST?! what do you think? **SPOILDER**

"spoilder" rofl
