What stood out to me about FaA's final battle more than the deja vu scenes from A1 was how abrupt and mechanical the pacing of the battle was.>Na'vi/Tulkun ambushHalf the RDA fleet wiped out in moments, 0% Na'vi/Tulkun casualties>Mangkwan reinforcementsAerial Na'vi totally overwhelmed, but this is bundled with the RDA's submarine forces only now coming online and also totally overwhelming the Reef Clans and Tulkun>aftermath, whaling fleet assembles for the mother/calf slaughterFriendly named characters stagger around in shock, have scenes dying or being captured, all other friendly forces seemingly vanished including multiple 300 foot long Tulkun matriarchs who can't be dead but are all conveniently laying low while the countdown to slaughter their children reaches 0>Eywa counterattackFeral squid and ikran everywhere, but now Na'vi pop back out and also the matriarchs who apparently were ready to let the whalers fire at least one full volley into the mothers and calves before acting.It's just like when the Metkayina all fucked off in TWoW so there could be an isolated brawl on the sinking Sea Dragon despite the chief's daughter still being there.Obviously done for convenience but it's so jarring that it really shouldn't have been. I can't remember anything like it happening in A1.
>>217371751A large chucnk of the final battle was remade/reshot and changed. Theres no knowing what it was originally like.
>>217371751The battle in A1 had the same moment with the animals all attacking at once. I think it happened in A2 but I can't remember.

>>217371817I can't help but think she would have been more deadly with her bow.

>>217371809It made sense in A1. There was an initial ambush that favored Na'vi in the air, then losses became mixed with plenty of Na'vi shot down, meanwhile the Na'vi ground charge was decimated and the Na'vi air pressure peters out.The wildlife horde then overwhelms the formerly dominating RDA ground forces and pressures the air enough for Jake to get in and sabotage the Valkyrie and Dragon, but there's no Na'vi resurgence. There's back and forth, different situations on air and ground and entire factions aren't tapping out during the tragedy music so they can reappear for the uplifting orchestral swell.
>>217371972I understand these movies are long enough already and the battles aren't really the point but a big skirmish with everything fighting everything seems more cinematic and exciting than ambushers ambushing the ambushers of the ambushed ambushers.
Is there a 3D model of Varang out there in the wild? I'm an amateur Blender animator.
Does anyone have that confused Kiri reaction pic that got posted a lot in the Way of Water generals.
>>217371907I guess they don't have any contraceptives if she got pregnant before grace...
>>217372275i bet varang knows some so she can fuck a lot without having a baby before she's ready
>>217371751Glad someone else felt that. Until the ashclan came in I was feeling rather underwhelmed, like they were bodying the humans to such a laughable degree it was less cool and more "stop stop, he's already dead". It felt like they were dragging out the fight to be an entire hour for the sake of having an hour long fight. It didn't really make sense to me why they were whupping them in the water and then all of a sudden they stop whupping them and need the squids when it was the air-game that was getting fucked up.There's really no way to fix it beyond just putting the ending battle of 3 in 2, and then changing it for 3. I could see Varang helping to make Quarich get a lightbulb in his head to draw Sully out not with fucking whales but rather with a threat back to the Omatikayan spirit tree. Sully gets pulled back because he may be sea-tribe but he's also forest-tribe, Neytiri gets more bite in her angst with Spider (Quaritch is threatening her family and her tree because he wants spider back, so give him back or kill him). Then have the sea-tribe come to aid them because this is a fight for all na'vi blah blah blah.But again, Cameron loves his fukkin water.
>>217371930I swear these guys were pushing it>Oh we don't have currency, but we do barter and trade goods and have extravagant clothing Like, I can't help but imagine that if humans met the Wind Traders or Mangkwan, shit would have been better for humanity. Imagine Selfridge talking to this motherfucker about commerce and logistics. Or some people talk about losing faith in God/Allah/Buddha and the Mangkwan finally see people who understand what they're going through.
>>217372152>YEAH GITSUMgo fishing https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/search/text/%2Favtr%2F/page/12/
>>217372374It's implied that they have contact with the humans and the na'vi. He says that he can't afford to look like he's picking sides.
>>217372302It's a logical progression that's like a culmination of the first three movies and has a unique magnetic storm setpiece
>>217372152
ronal... :(
>>217372302>Glad someone else felt that. Until the ashclan came in I was feeling rather underwhelmed, like they were bodying the humans to such a laughable degreeMight be because originally the Na'vi were all using human Guns in the fight before Cameron changed it maybe. Made me wonder if the weird sling weapons the Water tribe were using were digital replacements for what were originally machine guns.
>>217372455Yeah, Jake is collecting dozens and dozens of rifles but he doesn't seem to do anything with them. His kids have a couple. Maybe he uses them to barter with the wind traders?
has Jake ever hissed like Neytiri does?
God I wanna stick my face right in those leg gathers.
>>217371642>>217371659Asmongold ass looking alien
>>217372492No. The movie originally had Jake convince the Na'vi to use the guns, and the final battle had the Na'vi outfitted with RDA weaponry. This was the final battle before JC also decided to add the Toruk into the movie. Cameron confirmed he changed it after a viewing of a cut last year because he felt Jake giving arms to his tribes while Quaritch had done so with the Ash clan didn't sit right with him thematically after seeing the whole movie (worst part is that i don't necessarily disagree with him, especially coming off the scene of sparing Spider, but the changes came way too late imo)
>>217372508Yes, he does.
>>217372589Now that we're talking about it, it did seem odd that Jake was so disdainful of Neytiri's bow in the bikini. It's a pretty major thing for your wife, Jake.

>>217372434>you have been blessed by a woodsprite for your strong heart and selflessness.
>>217372434>mom overshared again
Have you already pulled your wife's tail?
>>217372682Hope she's got a nice looking dick
>>217372302>>217372455As much as I enjoyed everything with Varang, Quaritch and Beachhead, FaA was a bit of a mess. I hope the whole fiasco that happened splitting up and rewriting TWoW/FaA doesn't happen with 4 and 5. If Jim can avoid that and get out of the water for a bit he could really knock it out of the park.

>>217372926He's got that aristocrat Brit colonizer blood running in his veins.
>>217372376Being back the sexy mechs!
>>217372275what's the point of having a Neytiri wife if you're not doing balls deep creampies daily?
i wish they'd release na'vi fashion dolls. i want to dress neytiri and varang up and play with their hair
What sort of music would Varang listen to?https://youtu.be/V5z63Bi_d1I?si=u6DQzHJalOrCVdTX

>>217373729Dude is out here with Neytiri Itasha and ink.Unreal. I don't think I want anything I make to ever be loved like this.
>>217373729You can tell this guy has a black wife but also votes Republican exclusively.
>>217373855Did they intend to give her Disney princess eyes here?
>>217373855>Recom>Smurf Catnip heroin is abundant, cheap and no side effects
>>217373958OORAH
>>217373946All the unbearably cute things about her make a little more sense when you hear Jim talk about how he doesn't like villains and that every character has a good reason for what they do. so he basically made a beautiful creature who got fucked up.
>>217373987Kind of sad desu.
>>217374042of course it's sad why do you think white niggas on this very site are bending over backwards to waifu her despite all the EVIL shit she did
>>217373987Only a tough, relentless bastard who feels a little lost and alone deep inside can save her.
My Tsahik celebrating her 897th scalp can't be this cute!
>>217374090yes and also for human men only
Y'know even setting aside how it cost so much time and money and didn't pay off the gun-related story beats and made the final battle messy, I think it would have been better if the friendly Na'vi at the end had kept the firearms. It would show more Na'vi being regretfully led away from Eywa's ideals due to the spreading conflict, and Tonowari shooting up on his flying fish to spray a boat with a submachine gun is just cooler than the little hand crossbows.
