Avatar is honestly one of the most epic and beautiful movies that i have ever seen, i would even go as far as to say that its my favourite movie of all time. I found the world that was created completely awe inspiring, many of the plants and creatures in the movie i have encountered in my dreams which is pretty amazing. I think that this movie can completely capture anyone's imagination, the movie wasn't just a movie it was a full experience. Maybe that's what made it so special for me. I highly recommend taking the time to go and check it out. 
Much Peace and Happiness

I too fell in love with Neytiri. That really shines a torch on why I'm infinitely single... such grace, passion and understanding, but not lacking any of the childlike wonder that usually comes with those qualities. So hard to find. Very out of the way of my day to day life anyway.
The really sad thing is I keep crying for myself as a human being every now and then since I left the theatre. I won't say why for those who haven't seen the film, but one of the lines said by one character around the end of the film has been like a stake in my heart and concrete set around my soul in a lake of collective shame.
"Island" by Aldous Huxley is my favourite book of all time and although Avatar was dripping with hollywood attitude, I can appreciate the paralells drawn between these two works and how their message will grow more and more relevant every day.
I highly suggest that anyone who enjoyed this film that hasn't read "Island" should do so without delay. Similar vibe, but replacing cinematic emotion with raw substance like only one man could.
Inspiration and frustration... Lethal.

AGREED and seconded.
"In his last major work, the Island, the evils that Aldous Huxley has been warning us about in his earlier works - over-population, coercive politics, militarism, mechanization, the destruction of the environment and the worship of science; will find their opposites in the gentle and doomed Utopia of Pala." -Velma Lush
The books central theme is very similar to the theme of Avatar, the relationship between the Humans, Na'vi and their environment. Wonderful movie by the way, seen it three times already.
Attention.. Attention...
