Most Influential Movie
September 13, 2012
One of the most
influential movies I have seen would have to be Avatar. I consider it one of my
favorite movies because it revolutionized technology for film and it influenced
the advancements for 3D in films. The Director, James Cameron, is such an
inspiration. With his previous success in Titanic, he continued his legacy with
Avatar. This movie redefines film in such a way that it’s advancement with the
technology used in this film makes for an unbelievably great movie.
This film reflects
with film theory in many scenes of the movie. For example, in the scene with the rainforest destruction
allegory, it symbolizes that Pandora lives within us. This concept applies to
reality that we are destroying nature around us and not preserving its value to
us. Another allegory in this movie
is how the characters are preparing for battle to protect their homeland. It’s
an allegory for the Iraq War/ War on terror. It reflects the films relationship
to reality.
Not only did this
movie open my eyes to the reality that it was showing, but the effects in this
movie were incredible. Just the way the movie was filmed, with the actors and
actresses acting on set in their character-generated outfits was amazing. The
graphic effects gave real emotions to the characters. It made them look so real
as if they weren’t edited.
Also, the 3D
effects in this movie, inspired many other movies to start the rise of 3D
films. With the vibrant colors and 3D effects shown in this movie, I definitely
consider this to be one of the most influential and interesting films ever.
