James Cameron said “Avatar” the movie, set in the future on an alien planet being pillaged by humans for natural resources, deals with how indigenous people are treated by newcomers. “There’s just this long, wonderful history of the human race written in blood going back as far as we can remember, where we have this tendency to just take what we want without asking,” he said.  “There’s a sense of entitlement  we’re here, we’re big, we’ve got the guns, we’ve got the technology, we’ve got the brains, we therefore are entitled to every damn thing on this planet,” said James Cameron, describing the attitude of humans in “Avatar” the movie. ” James Cameron conceived the story for “Avatar” in 1995 then waited a decade for technology to catch up so he could film it.  “Avatar” mixes live action and computer animation to create an eye poppingly vivid alien world.
