the problem is that we are too touchy.
it is because we know our country is crap that is why we take offence at everything.
ive watched the movie and it was just a simple reference.
if u dont like it, FIX YOUR COUNTRY!!!!!

You guys havent seen anything yet, go and watch LEVERAGE and you ll b shocked at how bad Nigerias' populairty is. They wanted to pull a scam and involved some Nigerian Government officials. Then all kinds of crap were said. Go and watch it.

Y are u guys shouting about nigerian being mentioned just in talk bt never featured. I consider that sentence made by d general as a pride to our Mighty nigerian militant. I guess u guyz ve nt watched LOST where a whole naija Pastor was killed all becos of a common Polo vaccine, God wat could be worse than dat, Our naija wey parent dey carry pickn run 4 immunizatn come bcome ppl wey dey kill each oda because of vaccine, Wel at least thanks to hollywood for painting naija gold in d movie PHAT GIRLS, at least it shows nigerians ve better things in stock than matchets and charms, lol

I don't think this is relevant to what the discussion is about, but I'm 13 years old and I watch iCarly, in one episode, Carly's date mentions that he likes soccer and then he mentions that a soccer player from nigeria moved in next door. and in the movie, i dont remember the name, but it starred Amanda Bynes ( who I love love love) and it was like a modern twist to the Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. And one of the "seven dwarves" was a Nigerian and I think he had a Igbo name but i couldnt tell, cuz u kno the americans dont pronounce it right( cant blame them ), and he was a very sleepy guy event hough he's been livin there for about 5 years.

I love PHAT GIRLS and you know, in the movie, RAISIN IN THE SUN starring Diddy, one of the female characters was having a relationship with a Nigerian man and they were saying positive things about Naija and in one part she actually wore an Ankara ( i dont kno if i spelled tht right ).

This post is kind of ridiculous, considering that the movie district 9 trashed Nigerians alot more than Avatar!! Watch that one and see for yourself. The Nigerian I watched the movie with wasn't offended at Disrict 9. How can you be upset they mentioned existing violence or war in Avatar??

Re: Avatar, Insult Or Exaltation To Nigeria by Nobody: 1:06am On Mar 17, 2010
Why does Nigeria like to whine whenever they hear their name mentioned in Hollywood movies? If you feel so pained that they spoil our names in their movies then simply tell our Nolly wood "superstars" to also do movies degrading to the western world. Tit for tat. Stop wasting your energy and stop wasting my time.

Well, I just read through all of the above comments and I feel like no one really got the point! I am an American who loves and lives in Nigeria (I’ve been here since the 90’s). But maybe my being from the US and my own personal knowledge of resent history my help here. (I ended up here through my Google search just on this topic, as I was wondering what others thought about the Avatar – Nigerian war comment.)

So let me spell it out O-I-L. That’s right, I personal feel that “globalist” have their sights set on Nigeria’s oil. This is why the US and Britain are in the Mideast, it had nothing to do with 9-11. In fact Muslims did not even have anything to do with 9-11. The events were all carried out by the CIA and the Globalist who are trying to set up the New World Order. Just look at this video clip from a US TV show that aired just months before 9-11
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rsMG2hHsLo and many more examples can be seen here as well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQP-7yYdVyE .

So why would they put something like this in a TV show or movie before the event. For one, some people just love to brag that they know of such in advance. But I feel that the real answer is much darker. It comes from Satanism. You know how some tribes have a hunting dance the night before they go on the real hunt, the dance was to give them luck or favor with their gods (who is the devil). This is why the rich and powerful brag and act out their events before they do them. Just look up the Bohemian Grove on YouTube or Google
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_PAqT2JZOw this is where the world elite go to worship Satan.

I also found it interesting that no one wrote of the war seen in the movie Repo Men. “In a newscast near the beginning of Repo Men, an anchor informs her viewers about an ongoing conflict in Nigeria” (US marines fighting in Nigeria), so we find such openly talked about right before our eyes. Seeing yet never perceiving…

If you would really like to know about what’s really going on in the world The Alex Jones podcast http://www.infowars.com/listen.html would be a great place to start! Other than that know that the Bible speaks of the coming of a One World Government – well, it is already starting. Are you ready?

O how I do pray that eyes will be opened before it’s too late!
