Avatar in China

Across the Chinese blogosphere, debate has focused on the parallels between the movie’s story and recent incidents in China, prompting some to wonder if Cameron’s film might be intended as an attack on the Chinese government. Others have rallied behind the film, arguing that it has raised public awareness of the unfairness of China’s eminent domain laws.

Or you know, maybe it’s just a movie about white people going native. I haven’t seen it to say, but I am quite interested in how the movie is perceived around the world.
