cool article
Mar. 5th, 2010 02:13 pmI've been reading this article from a link posted by
springheel_jack in bits and pieces while I eat my lovely orange slices and wait for my queries to run.
It's about the racism and colonialism in Avatar, but with some new insights into this type of film that I hadn't seen before.
I especially liked the bit about Titanic. I had sort of an Ah-ha moment reading it: that's why Titanic is so enormously popular with girls (and women)! Jack is a male Manic Pixie Dream Girl!All the more reason not to shoehorn Kirk and Spock into those roles
