Recently, Denver based channel 7 News ran a story on a possible connection between the popular movie Avatar and Crested Butte's history of natural resource protection.
Both a transcript of the story and the Channel 7 VIDEO (includes interviews with CB locals) are available at the following link: Avatar Based On Colorado Town's History?
Here's a leading snippet from the 7 News website:
"CRESTED BUTTE, Colo. -- "Avatar" is shattering box office records, scoring nine Oscar nominations and setting a new standard for visual effects.
But could the story that's making history actually be the veiled tale of a Colorado town?
It's an isolated land where locals live in harmony with nature and on top of a mineral a mining company is determined to get.
Sound familiar?
Well, it's not the plot of James Cameron's blockbuster hit "Avatar."
It's the history of Colorado's Crested Butte."
You can read the full story and see the video HERE.
