Propaganda we pay for...in more ways than one

6. Avatar was also kind of, well . . .

Lame. It looked nice, but it wasn't a great movie. Just my opinion of course.

While I was also not as impressed with 'The Hurt Locker' as many others were, I didn't feel it was a pro-war movie. If anything, it was neutral or maybe a bit anti-war. The soldiers were clearly confused about who was an enemy and who was not and they local population was quite unwelcoming toward them. I was left with the impression that the filmmakers were intimating that Iraq is a dangerous place because of the US presence and that US goals and methods are inconsistent. It was more of a 'let's go home' than 'let's finish the job' type of message, IMO.
