Oh, the jumping scene! He jumped off an alien pterosaur onto a bigger alien pterosaur. See, none of the natives had ever thought to try that before. US Marines, baby!

I’m not very confident Avatar will be worth 3 hours of my time, but I’ll probably give it a shot when its streaming for “free” on Disney+
But while were playing the name excellent long movies game. One of my all time favourites. And a long one.
