I'm back from the movie and I'm here to talk about it.

The thing I will probably remember the longest about Avatar Fire and Ash is the 2 and a half minute long piss I took afterward. I didn't want to get up and go to the bathroom during the film because I didn't want to miss anything, and as a result I was in great discomfort for the last 45 minutes of the film. It is a credit to the sheer spectacle that Cameron can create that I was still very invested into what was happening on screen despite feeling like my bladder was going to explode.

I am definitely getting older, there was a time when I could sit through a 3+ hour long movie without feeling like I was going to die from having to piss. I probably should have managed my fluids better, drank less, but I don't go to movies in the theater that often anymore, so it's a skill I haven't had time to practice.

The movie was okay, basically rehashed a lot of stuff from the second film, even the climactic battle to save the whales. Maybe Cameron didn't feel like he did it right the first time and wanted another go at it. The big battles were pretty cool though. I also really liked Loak's journey through the stormy sea, cresting those massive waves. That was a good sequence. I think his journey out to Payakun's clan might've been when I could have gone to the bathroom, since not a lot came of that and the reveal later when they were trying to get the whales to fight was basically a repeat of it. So my advice to anybody unsure of their urinary fortitude, after the cool stormy journey part, head for the toilets. You have a few minutes where it's just Loak and his friends talking to drain your bladder.

Also, I was kinda surprised Jake was going to kill Spider. Not that I believed for a minute he'd actually do it, but contriving things for him to sink that low, that was unexpected.

Most unrealistic thing about this movie is Spider not having a massive visible boner under that loincloth
>>
haven't watched 1 since release, skipped 2 and just watched 3. I should re-watch the first then watch 2, also bought the 'new' game, ubishit performance and gameplay but its a pretty game at least. i don't understand how this franchise is so fucking popular but it's not the worst thing i've consoomed.
>>
>>217007290
I have a theory that the movie is intentionally telling you to go to the bathroom during that scene where it cuts to a flowing river and Spider goes on and on about pissing. This happens right before the long and visually basic sequence of Spider not getting killed which is ultimately pretty skippable and after that is the big ending sequence
>>
>>217007626
You skipped the wrong movie. 1 is about is mid as movies get, 2 was a surprising jump in quality, and 3 is also good but feels like a rehash of 2.
>>
>>217007640
maybe? i'll watch 1 again and then 2 in the next couple days. i skipped over 2 'cause covid days. 3 wasn't great to me (maybe it gets better after watching 2...) but it was a pretty movie, felt very 'turn your brain off, watch pretty blue faggots and presentation'

Nightwraith
Na'vi Name: Ska’avum
A frightening vision of power and strength, the Nightwraith (Na’vi: Ska’avum) is a rare, aerial apex predator. As a distant relative of the tetrapteron family tree, the Nightwraith shares characteristics of the Great Western tetrapteron and the Wetland’s Luna tetrapteron, all the while being uncharacteristically large enough to warrant a species delineation. It has four sets of wings, each with ten folding vanes that splay out and provide a more dextrous level of aerial control than the ikran. Its hollow, bony crest, or casque, is a fearsome weapon. The Nightwraith is known to use the casque to spear the operculum of its prey when hunting, for defense against predators or in mating rituals. Its hind claws are similarly deadly, and it can strike aerial prey like a hawk or falcon to devastating effect.

You don't want an AI to fully pilot your ship, it's much better to use it as an assistance during key moments.

Same for these >>217008594
most likely they work autonomously for most repetitive stuff, but you will still need a human operator to supervise them.
>ok but what if we had AI advanced enough to fully replace these operators
That's a much bigger if than you think. But then you wouldn't need any crew in these missions at all, you could just send automated missions all over space and then you are just making Low-G-Man : the movie.

not really, they're at the level of outdated boston dynamics robots really. they're fed hard code that should be very basic by avatar universe standards.

but back to the thing originally addressed, unless they have magnetized hands on the crab vehicle that prevent them from touching, there's no way it could that seamlessly dissipate the force of impact seen in the clip. they cut corners and it shows

So uh...Spider calls Jake "dad", and Jake tells Kiri he is her father regardless of whatever. So isn't Spider x Kiri literally incest? Am I the only one who thought, "wait, aren't they siblings?" when they kissed? The fuck?

>>217008953
Navi are born with the tentacle thing, it's part of their DNA. Spider only grew one because he's got an alien spore growing throughout his body keeping him alive. I thought maybe it would be a cool twist if that's how all the tentacle internet bullshit worked but they figured out what was in him almost immediately and they've been growing Avatar bodies in their vats for at least a decade so if those needed a spore symbiote they would have known about it already.

Kiri was created though parthenogenesis. When Grace's avatar was plugged into the tree it activated an embryo inside it so she is genetically identical to the synthetic alien hybrid mixed with human DNA. Spider was just a normal human until he got a fungal infection and sprouted the queue. He born naturally and abandoned to be raised by the remaining scientists at first but ended up staying with the Sullys. Neither are related to Jake or each other in any physical sense, but socially, Jake kind of treats them better than his own sons except for that part where he almost killed him lol and considers them his children so if you are desperate for incest sure, call it that if you want. No one in context will really care until he gets her pregnant and she pumps out a short pink skinned Navi that's really half human and not just human flavored like the avatars.

The plot of this video game is that mankind colonised other star systems using autonomous AI-run machines, until an alien found one of them and turned it against Earth and mankind.

Cameron seems to center these movies each around some kind of environmental destruction. The first one has surface mining that destroyed the forest. While A2 and A3 had whaling.

What environmentalmproblem will the next movies focus on? Perhaps trophy hunting, and an anologe to the fur and ivory trade?

Or perhaps chattle slavery of na'vi women to earth as sex slaves :-(

He'll really blow it out of the park in Avatar 4. He will introduce Blackgoldium, a precious substance made from compressed carcasses of ancient pandoran fauna, and a single ounce of it can power all of earth for a trillion years on max throttle. But wait, there's more! The process of extraction will cause the destruction of the natural habitat of the cute and harmless Pandoran Panda, known by the natives as (transliterated) "Usurper of life defiler of Na'vi rapist beast", and only one man-turned-xeno can stop them!

I finally got baited into watching this trash from all the shilling of the toxic bitch. I will give you the toxic bitch is kinda hot, but the rest of this movie is like sitting through a 3 hour PS3 cutscene from so no name game in 2010. Every time those fucking whales and the Polynesian themed dudes were on screen I had my finger on the skip button. The fact that Cameron did Titanic and is now doing this is just fascinating. It's like he has regressed to a mental age of 15.
The movie looks fake as fuck, somehow the CGI is worse than Return of the Sith twenty years later. Speaking of, I counted at least 5 shots stolen wholesale from Lucas' movies. I'm not even gonna go into the hamfisted biblical greatest hits moments.

I don't know why, but from WoW I got the impression that Spider was just an orphan who just so happened to tag along the Sully family, like a really close best friend to the kids who stayed with them most of the time because he had nowhere else to go, rather than having been formally adopted by them.
I don't recall him calling Jake "father" before Ash and Fire.

Eywa is a bitch and Varang, Quaritch and the RDA are right. Fuck that parasite, it only keeps other organisms down to make sure it can never be threatened by them.

I haven't seen the cameron video linked above, but the wind traders are very different from the na'vi we've seen so far: They build huge artifical constructs with mechanical steering and mechanical weapons. They put animals in harnishes to use them as beasts of burden. Another anon a few threads ago pointed out how their long distance trading implies a level of economic development we haven't seen anywhere in pandora so far (the forest and reef people are are self-sufficient in their subsistence-level living). They are cosmopolital, practice political neutrality and are mercantile minded.

All in all they would have been the perfect society for humans to have established relations with. And not those omaticaya hunter gatherers who live in the mining zone anyway.
