Noreen Akhter- "The movie showed how powerful countries can attack less-developed countries for their personal gain. We see a lot of this going on in the world today."

Junayd Akhter- "I think Avatar showed a side of the human race as hurting animals. The Avatar people were more like animals and they were being forced out of their natural homes."

Tasneem Turk- "I think that Avatar did have a political meaning saying that the "Sky People" wanted to take over their tree and land in Pandora just to benefit themselves. This is similar to how Israel wanted to take over Palestine just for their benefit of a Zionist state. However people stuck together in the end to fight back."

Qammer Alzubaidi- "I believe Avatar had a lot to do with all the oppressions going on around the world such as Palestine/Israel, U.S./Iraq. One dealing with land owning and the other with oil. I was really interested that the movie could relate so much to the oil power thirst they have in Iraq and how it related the army general fighting to what ever cost, even destroying the peoples homes (which happens in Palestine with the Israelis going to such costs of destroying other peoples homes in order to just get the land they want). What also surprised me was that there was a soldier went A-wall in the middle of the job and saying that she didn’t sign up for this kind of thing...meaning that she didn’t sign up in order to go and kill people who just want to live peacefully in their ancestors home. What I really liked was the similarity between the Avatars defeating the human army with nothing more than spears and huge birds and the Palestinian people frightening the Israeli army with nothing more than rocks and regular old guns. I’m glad to have watched that movie and I would gladly do it again...I just wonder how the production media even let it through."

Ambereen Ameer- "I think it is an exceptionally political film, especially with its themes of Western imperialism. What James Cameron, I think, is trying to say is that the Earth (or, I daresay, America) is getting greedier and greedier with its excess consumption of natural resources and money. What other option do they have but to "visit" another planet (or Iraq and its oil...going back to the America example) and take those said resources? Ultimately, James Cameron is saying that Western developed countries have had a long history of exhausting their own resources and goods and then invade smaller countries to take their natural commodities, only to drive those countries into deeper poverty and political corruption."
