There are many firsts with the Avatar movie for me.
This is the first 3D movie I watched with a goggle. This is quite heavy and need some getting used to. The 3D effects are good.
This is the first movie I watched at such an early hour – 3:30am on a Christmas night. Scorpiofool was kind enough to accompany me to watch the movie together.
The movie is set as a planet invasion by humans to another planet for a mineral material. The main lead was tasked to infiltrate the alien race using a mind controlled alien body. He grew to fall in love with the alien race and fought with them against the skywalkers (his fellow earthlings). The effects are good and I like the ending whereby his consciousness was eventually transferred from his human body to the alien avatar body that he controlled – much like transferring files between thumb drives.
