Am I the only one NOT excited about Avatar?
It’s freaking Pocahontas in Space! We know the story, they just CGI’d the shit out of it. It looks visually great, but the story is so incredibly unsurprising.
but it will be so pretty!
and in 3D! and the pretty!
It is not Pocahontas in Space
It is Dancing With Woves in Space.

A dude attempts to infiltrate a race of people who are technologically inferior to his own
Dude’s own race of people wants to claim the resources of the other race’s world for their own even though they don’t live there, even if they have to slaughter all of them. Dude infiltrates society, falls in love, and turns against his own people to protect this different race of people.
It’s been a while, but I’m pretty sure that is exactly what Pocahontas was.
Soo
Was Pocahontas a ripoff of Dances with Wolves, or vice versa?

If it was, I’m doubting it’s as old as the real Pocahontas story.
The real Pocahontas story did not, at all, involve Rolfe or Smith turning against the English
