Or you could just watch Planet Earth and become engrossed in something that actually exists.
Well I actually mentioned in another post that Pandora wasn't that beautiful and that I prefered the amazing plants, animals and landscapes we have in Earth.

You're right, Chino.  Having a massive planet close by and lots of neon everywhere does automatically constitute beautiful.

Just to clarify the point of my post, I didn't understand fans of the movies going crazy about Pandora and saying "I would like to leave my planet and live in Pandora" when we have beautiful things on Earth that are actually very similar (your first and third pictures are good examples of something I wouldn't envy from Pandora). And you don't have my avatar in Pandora.

I never understood why people cannot see the beauty in Pandora just in the same way that others cannot see the beauty the Earth beholds. However beauty I guess is in the eye of the beholder. Let's just hope none of them are graphics designers, photographers or painters. :neverusethis:

Because Pandora looks pretty much exactly like Earth, only more fake.

Well it's been a while since I saw it since I never got it on DVD, but I have to say I don't see why everyone thinks it's that bad. Maybe it's because I went expecting something average and that's exactly what I got.

And I think the people who think Pandora is so beautiful and wish they could go and live there have other mental problems not related to Avatar... the scenery in the film is beautiful and it would be good to see but obviously it's not real so couldn't possibly be better than Earth's scenery...

If you need to go to another (fictional) planet to observe beauty, you clearly haven't taken a look around (and inside your house does not count).

So my roommate's watching it downstairs and I can hear some of the dialogue.

"Well, well, well. Looks like diplomacy has failed."
"I didn't sign up for this shit."

Maybe I should watch it just to lol at the corny lines.

If you haven't seen Pocahontas or Fern Gully, yes. If you have, no.
