2022 has seeing some improvement over the events that took place in 2020 and 2021, yet the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic still continue to linger and there are those who have faced hardships this year. Thus, the importance of movies still remains strong as the ways and means of escapism from reality, and I hope that people have found comfort in watching cinematic tales in such trying times.
In 2009, with large blockbuster endeavors exploding into movie theaters throughout the year, including Star Trek, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Fast & Furious, and Terminator: Salvation, 20th the year closed out with the release of Avatar, an ambitious sci-fi blockbuster that set the bar high for visual effect storytelling.

Walt Disney’s animated feature films have always been a hot commodity with its viewers as well as its theatrical box office success. For more than two decades, the animated powerhouse studio has been both reinventing itself and looking back to its glory days, harkening to a time when their cartoon motion pictures were celebrated with their signature style. Beginning back in 2009’s Princess and the Frog, the company has looked towards that particular style for some of his more prominent hits, recalling its time-honored traditions of storytelling of princess, animal sidekicks’ characters, and musical songs to sing. This includes films like Tangled in 2010, Frozen in 2013, Moana in 2016, and Frozen II in 2019. That being said, Disney has also branched out into more contemporary fields for the cartoon storytelling feature films, branching out into the superhero variety with

And that this…. this is our land!” as Jason’s Movie Blog takes a trip back to the world of Pandora for the latest “cinematic flashback” of the sci-fi adventure blockbuster of 2009 Avatar.
