Avatar 2

James Cameron mouth about the cinema ’s root in the genuine public :

It ’s always a reflection of our populace . It would n’t have any relevance if it was n’t a refraction through a lens of illusion or science fiction of the things that are going on in our earth , whether it ’s the conflict if you calculate at this Standing Rock face-off between Native Americans and the authorities that ’s going on right now , that ’s just an representative of the variety of things that Avatar is about , metaphorically . It ’s going on throughout Central and South America . Indigenous the great unwashed confront big hydroelectric decameter undertaking or confront oil company , that kind of affair . It ’s the world we live in . It ’s also about our family relationship with engineering science and how we ’re a much more urbanised society then we used to be . We ’re far , far down through the looking glass of our own technology now , and I think part of us is yearning for that reconnection to nature , and that ’s what the Avatar films will cue us of .
