OT: Jon Anderson: Roger Dean should get credit for 'Avatar'

Postby Rockwriter » Wed Jun 22, 2011 8:50 am

In a new interview with me today, former Yes vocalist Jon Anderson said Yes cover artist Roger Dean should get credit for 'Avatar' for how similar the visuals are to his art work. Check it out here http://www.examiner.com/classic-hard-ro ... for-avatar

Thanks!

The people behind "Dances With Wolves" and "Ernest goes To Camp" should also get credit for Avatar. Avatar was a stupid fucking ripoff of those movies with some stupid colors and effects to impress the easily entertained dumb flocks of imbeciles that jizzed themselves over it
