Avatar!

Went to see the new movie Avatar for the 2nd time today, this time with my daughter Maxi along...what a phenomenal movie! The graphics are just incredible in this film; what I'd give to have some hand-dyed silk colored like the wings of those dragon-bird things the Navi fly around on! The story is pretty neat, too, and I love the strong female characters in the movie. It'll be interesting to see how the visuals from the film branch out into the commercial world...will there be new plant species? Navi Halloween costumes next year? Only time will tell I guess, but this is one of the best movies I've seen in quite some time.

I saw the movie too and was captivated. We're introducing some new WoolFelt colors and your blog post just gave me idea. You're right about the stunning visuals and graphics and the possiblity of new trend setting.

My sis and I went to see Avatar in Concord over the weekend..like you I was thinking, "I wonder how all of this would transfer into fabric???" HA!!! It was wonderful!!

Yes, and I am so sad to hear some negative publicity now about the movie, guess you can't please everyone...I just thought the story so sweet and of course the graphics absolutely stunning, very inspiring.
