It had never occurred to me that Eywa might not be this benevolent planetary consciousness who loves all things and decided to embrace Jake when none of the other Navi would because he has a 'good heart' or some trite shit. I really like the idea you alluded to that Eywa only protected Jake because he was this oblivious clown who could be manipulated to turn against his own people. Means Eywa goes from spirit of the forest to scheming neural network bent on survival at any cost.

I love that theory actually. Jake is a bit of an idiot, he meets aliens at a new planet and behaves like an everyday American, of course the spirit God is gonna think he's a moron and so did Neytiri. But I honestly like this silly old school romance they have. Sometimes it's nice to just have a very generic boy meets girl form different worlds, they teach each other and fall in love. Both of them become more interesting as they grow, they raise a family with everyday family drama, simple. I miss that. Not everything has to be overly complex to be interesting and characters don't have to be girl bosses. Everyone is allowed to express emotions and make mistakes. Just some good old "how I met your mother" and fought in a war kinda stuff

The part that encapsulates the problems with this movie for me is the bit right after the tree being torn down and before they go off to rally the troops for the final battle - the good humans are captured and being held in a cell together, looking miserable. This would have been the perfect time for Sully to express his feelings about the mistakes he's made, compare where he is now to where he was at the beginning of the film, maybe get some advice from Sigourney Weaver. Just some kind of pause in the film for us to catch our breath and spend time with the people the story has asked us to follow before going into the climax. But there's none of that, it's a tiny moment of them looking sad in the cell, and then one of their friends breaks them out and they're rushing off again. It highlights for me how the film (particularly the dialogue) is 99-100% world-building or exposition. Even Sigourney Weaver's grouchy one-liners include some relevant detail that explains how things work or sets up a detail for later. Then when it gets to the character's emotional low point, the film treats it like a box to quickly tick before moving on. In my opinion, that world-building-over-character approach is why this film is so lacking in personality.

This movie in a 3D theatre represents a technological step forward like when technicolor was introduced but that experience can't be replicated at home. Your friends mistake was not understanding that this movie was literally designed to be seen in giant 3D. And it's not gimmicky crap jumping out at you to make you duck, the things that draw you in and make it so immersive are the subtle things, for example when the home tree is burned down there's ash blowing across the theatre from side to side. It's hard to express how that pulls you in.

He's incredibly reckless and gets lost almost immediately but he's forgiven just as fast because the Navi trust him. He's an enormous ass for the first 2/3 of the movie when he's interacting with them, and when Neytiri finally has enough of his shit he just finds a bird and they all forgive him. The single best part of Avatar 2 is that we see him actually respect the sea people and not be an idiot, and watch him deal with the consequences of his betrayal of the RDA in the first movie.

It's a really touching story about parenthood and grappling with the struggle of supporting your children while also giving them the freedom to explore their own futures.

Yeah same here, I really really wish I could like this movie, on paper it sounds like something I'd love, but experiencing it leaves me feeling aggressively apathetic and I can't quite put my finger on why. Sure the plot sucks and the characters are wood, but the visuals and world-building are supposed to be the main appeal, and they still didn't impress me in the slightest. Something about it is just so...windows screensaver, you know?

@@RoguSpanish My speculation why the film feels a bit window screen ich..Is because 80% of the film focuses on characters that do not exist in a world that does not exist, of which if you could play you would have thought it was a video game, however can you not.

The extended cut (& deleted scenes) do a lot for the characters. Norm (the nerd) gets an arc, Tsu'tey (the dickish Navi rival) is humanised. You see Jake on Earth and his arc is much more fleshed out (particularly via the Dream Hunt sequence). Still extremely simple & predictable, but much more likeable. The subplot about Grace's Navi school also does a lot to flesh out the backstory & emotional stakes. Since The Way of Water is 3 hours and 10 minutes anyway I don't understand why they didn't use the extended cut of Avatar for the re-release, or finish and add some of the deleted scenes. The studio is clearly already letting Cameron do whatever the fuck he wants.

@@Rennies-World - Visuals, like you said. But also beyond visuals is the technological achievement that has, in most ways, not been surpassed by any other film - The music is great (RIP James Horner). - Sure, the story is mostly generic and predictable, but I still thinks it's well done. It's so hard to reinvent the wheel these days, so I can't hold it against Cameron for telling the same story - All the performances are great. Yes, Sam Worthington's performance is the weakest, but I don't think it's bad. He plays the outcast-ish, smartass, jarhead-turned good guy well. Zoe, Sigourney and Stephen Lang are perfect in their roles - Many of the emotional hits just get me, as well. Destruction of Home Tree, Jake & Neytiri, the betrayal, death of Tsu'tye, the final battle. I just think it's all done so well. - I know other films/franchises have done it as well or even better, but I like the world-building. The animals, plants, environment, language, Na'vi culture, etc. - I also don't think it takes itself toooo seriously. There are moments of levity throughout that give it the perfect balance of action/thrill/seriousness, with fun. Perhaps a bit hard to put into words, but the whole movie just works for me. After 13 years I doubt I can convince you or others to love this movie, so I will gladly keep on doing so myself

I recently watched Avatar 2 Wet Hot Pandora Summer in the theatre and was swept away. I basically saw Avatar 2009 once when it was released and haven't gone back since then. After watching this CoG I went back in to answer the age old question: Is this anything? The answer, yes and no. Narratively and in terms of character the movie is quite shallow. The Pocahontas/Dances with Wolves comparisons are obvious, but the movie is much more interested in world building and awe inspiring visuals than delving into character. Jake's video logs serve to tell us how he's feeling, but they are so bare bones, they feel like they are impatiently dumping exposition to get us to the next set piece. The plot is serviceable, but the characters are pretty shallow. In terms of awe and wonder however, this film delivers. I was in my early teens when this film came out, and I was not really swept away by it beyond being impressed by how good it looked. But watching it as an adult with a job and life responsibilities, the pure escapism of this film is sublime. Every frame is beautiful, and I was so happy to just exist in the moment of this film's world. I have way more affection for this film revisiting it 13 years on than I ever did before. Maybe it's franchise fatigue from the last 14 years of superhero films, maybe it's life fatigue, but revisiting this world, both in the original film and avatar 2 was sublime
