I believe it's about the U.S. specifically. What was your impression when you saw it?

tinear,

The Na'vi to me seem so closely modeled on Native Americans- with perhaps some Eastern influence, and of course, the military personnel all speak as 20th Century Americans- accents and idioms, there's no question in my mind it's purely an American Allegory.

Of course, the "Unobtainium" possibly could be a stand in for Iraqi and Iranian oil.

When you saw "Avatar" did you sense it was symbolic of Israeli treatment of the Palestinians?

Cheers,

Bambi B
