China plans to pull Avatar from most cinemas, despite the long queues for tickets, to make way for a more patriotic film the censors deem more appropriate – a life of Confucius.
The move comes amid government anxiety that many Chinese are making a link between the plight of the film's Na’vi, who face being displaced form their homeland, and that of those in China who are subject to often brutal evictions by property developers

China will never ever change, these people will still be in this state by the year 3000. Come on it's just a film for god sake not just some gung-ho flick about taking over the country or destroying the entire goverment or anything.
