I don’t see this movie as a movie, i see it as art
LOL 😆
@@walterwhite1 Yes, we know you're a joke. Thanks for pointing out the obvious salt bae x
Cinema is art
@@ashscheesecakes2064 you have been reported for cyber bullying
@@walterwhite1 Oh no, my bunny slippers are quivering. Who's the snowflake now?
This is the entire reason as to why it took 13 years, absolutely Incredible
Well they actually also shot Avatar 3 back to back so that added to the wait
production started in 2017, so not really 13 years but yeah, alot of love went into these films
they should of cancelled it
@@TripleeVFX avatar 3? You mean to say they already shot the 3rd movie?
@@mara_q9979 yes, they already shot 3 and 4 as far as I know. Now, all the footage just needs to be edited, and we get 2 more movies!
First of all, this is the most visually stunning piece of work i've ever seen in my life and I don't think anything will ever come close. Not a single second boring and the effects were just mind blowing.
But can we also appreciate Sigourney Weaver for a second? There's a woman over 70 who's determined to do all her stunts and all the things the rest of the younger cast do and she casually just learned how to hold her breath for 6.5 minutes. She's incredible and I love her to bits!
Naprosto přesně + pro mě je ikona od roku 1979
Agreed!! She’s amazing
So true
She also had to voice a teenager at the same time
both the forest and ocean scenes are incredible. I wonder what landscapes they will explore in the other films.
Kiri face expressions under water were so joyful. I loved the scenes when they all smiled a lot, or when loak does his Stunts with the tulkun, this was so infectious!
Was kinda cringe
@@theempire00 you're cringe
Ikr those were the best moments. ☺
@@theempire00
Pfff
@@theempire00 says you
This is not just a movie. It's an experience.
Agreed 💯
Agree 💯
Same here.
*lifetime experience*
Yes, experience Pandora ride in Florida!!! Its absolutely amazing!!!
just walked out of the cinema with tears running down my cheeks. that movie was an EXPERIENCE. not only did it bring back a crap ton of my childhood memories, but it literally gave me tips to relieve anxiety (the breathing technique the clan uses) one of the best movies i have ever seen. avatar will always be my favorite
I cried too 😢
@@allywally6054 Same
Same, came out the theater tear stained and numb
finally someone who cried. thought it was only me...
me and my sister cried our hearts out watching that movie. To make matters worse, we left the theatre only to here How To Save A Life playing. Absolutely heartbreaking
I walked out of the theater after watching this movie in 3D completely entranced by this whole other world. I will forever long to visit Pandora because it just feels so real and so alive. It hurt being slapped with the reality that this world is make believe. James Cameron and everyone who took part in the making of this movie are true artists.
After leaving the theater, I was like, wow... our world should be the one that is make believe. I was still in the Pandora world 😄
Yes!
@empty me if I was delusional
If Pandora really exists somewhere in the universe - I do wish humans never, ever find it.
It exists in Orlando, Florida.
you can’t say this movie wasn’t an emotional cinematic masterpiece
Yeah I don't think we need to say that about this movie.
I sobbed so badly at the death scenes
Never watched it, don't plan to.
this movie wasnt an emotional cinematic masterpiece... it was a boring pile of garbage
I loved every second of it. Every person that helped create this masterpiece deserves an award.
thx
Amen to that
Except for the script writers - the dialogue and plot were lame 😂 but the VFX was wonderous
Huge facts
Fr
I watched it in 3D yesterday, It was breathtaking.
Same here. Sorry it in IMAX 3D for my 27th birthday. Saw it for my 13th birthday back then continued it now. Boy has so much happened in the world since then. Yet, the message of the story isn’t any less, but in fact more important, and powerful.
Same
Same today! My new favorite experience
Io lo vedrò domaniiii n vedo l ora di andare al cinema 😍😍😍
same, it was magical
This movie has changed me in ways I cannot imagine. This changed my heart. This was pure beauty and raw art.
How? Can you explain how did the movie actually change you?
@@333Hedgehogs just like the movie they do not explain them selfs. I mean how could they when all they remember is thick fog.
71 and still kicking butt! Yes Sigourney Weaver! And what an absolutely breathtaking movie to do it in.❤
Yes what a legend she is.
Really good. They made this movie from the bottom of their hearts and not just only for business.
LOL
@@wheelzwheela hater
There was a lot of heart in this one. More than the original. Real emotional moments. Closest they came in the first movie was “Eywa has heard you!” I don’t think there is one line in this movie that rises to that line in the previous movie (Zoe Saldana’s voice basically cracking while she says this out of exhaustion), but this movie had a bunch of other great one liners that I really really enjoyed. Some of them funny as hell, some of them very emotional. Jake, nodding his head to the side when he says “let’s get this done“. Classic James Cameron. It’s stupid, it’s meant to make the audience say “fuck yes“ but it works. And don’t even get me started on “I see you, my son“. I saw this with my girlfriend and she put a tissue to her face, claimed it was allergies in the theater, and only within the past hour was like “yeah I was a little bit choked up“. Cameron is just a genius. Walking into this movie, I had faith in him, but the whole premise of accepting a bunch of new characters, I wasn’t sure about. I didn’t care about the kids in the first 15 minutes. But as the movie went on? I grew to know their personalities and really like them. The younger brother pissed me off so much at first but I grew to love him.

@@wheelzwheela HATER
This is not film it's another world ❤
I'm just praying they got enough footage from Pandora to make Avatar 3, so we don't have to wait for them take another trip to Alpha centuri, which takes ANOTHER 12 years round trip for the film crew😔
Exactly 💯
@@csguak good news, every 2 years we get a continuation of the avatar movie! in 2024 we will get avatar 3: the seed bearer
@@csguak they're already done filming avatar 3 and is scheduled for 2024 and there's gonna be a 4 and 5 I'm really glad they didn't abandon the show the freaking CGI is so top tier
@@averyyiix7685 excellent.
Its gorgeous how much passion the director has for his work. It was obvious watching the movie that there was so much fricking effort put into everything by everyone.
This is insane how much work especially from each person went into this.. Impressive. Avatar is a Masterpiece
I was worried I’d get bored as it’s a very long film, yet in 3D with non stop action and incredibly realistic water scenes you almost want to just watch it again straight away.
lol you didn't?
I agree. It was magical experience for me. After that I think I will visit a swimming pool to learn more about diving.
Near where i love theres a movie theater called “cinepolis” they have 4XD!!!! The seats moved and have water air fans to go along with the movie. It was amazing!!! Im never seeing an Avatar movie unless its 4XD tbh. It was like a ride for 3 hours and it made the movie go by fast
This is probably an unpopulair opinion, but 'The Way of the water' is better than the original imo.
@@brybry8955 I saw it in 4DX and it was so much fun. Really works with the water in the film.
Wow, the amount of exercises in that breathing training and how much endurance you need, it's just so incredible how strong they became in their breathing. So strong.
True.
i love the SZA profile picture dude
We’d be able to do the same but we under light code lockdown we got deactivated
@@angeloramen4138 hm?
The beauty in this movie was just out of this world. I found myself crying sometimes out of the gorgeousness
@empty 🥺🥺
Anyone watching this that hasn't yet seen it in theatres...DO IT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATRE! It's a great film & a great story but as a visual spectacle it is one of the most amazing theatre experiences of all time. Thank you & congratulations to all the cast & crew who worked on this epic. Off to see it a second time tomorrow.
I went to see this in Theaters last night in 3D! Man it was such an emotional roller coaster and I enjoyed every moment of it! Sorry that Jake son had to die, but it was definitely a Masterpiece 💯💯🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@AphroditeAmor I adgree, i wasn't ready to lose nataum this early on either. Glad you enjoyed it, i've seen it 4 times now.. Ha haa, i loved it.
@@montybrewster7 Definitely worth the watch that many times! Wish Netflix would bring it on their platform now, I would definitely watch it again☺️☺️☺️🎊🎊
The underwater scenes on Imax is so amazing. Never seen it on other movies who are overly fake CGI effects.
This movie that good!!???
@@prettiestbaddie4194 It really was amazing.
@@prettiestbaddie4194 even if you don't really dig the story, the movie is a visual spectacle. If there's any movie worth seeing on the big screen, this is the one!
i watched it in IMAX 3D. It was surreal. every scenes has so much effort in the details. Can't believe i only paid 20 bucks for the entire 3 hours 20 mins of film
@TWICE, Red Velvet and SNSD give me life I wish to watch it in 3d imax, will it give me motion sickness?
This movie represents more than a movie. It represents the love of family. And all the sacrifices one is capable of making in order to protect the family. Without a doubt this movie is my favorite.
When i see comments saying that the movie doesn’t have a good history … it makes me think what else can be better than the family’s love ? For that , we don’t need too much , to reach the point. I saw the movie yesterday and i simply love it…only who has love in his hearth can really know the message.
The use of family was so good and that the family actually feels like a real one and feels so human makes it so much better
This is it. This is HOW MOVIES, ART ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.
FREAKING INCREDIBLE
I knew filming underwater would be insane, but I didn’t know it was this insane. Props to everyone that made this an unforgettable experience. 🌊💙
This is clearly the definition of passion and not focusing on the funds it's gon bring back.
This is mind blowing and I'm a fan right from when the first AVATAR was launched.
Kudos to the team!
Agree 💯
I was waiting 13 years to watch this movie. My kid was 5 when we have seen Avatar 1. 3 days ago, when we watched Avatar 2 together, she was 18 😊 Both Avatar movies are the best movies I‘ve ever seen in my entire life! Thank you James Cameron for your incredible work that you have done.👌
That’s so cute it’s literally her childhood movie, I was 12 for avatar 1 and now I’m 25!
@@serene4961 that is cute too 😊 I send you good vibes from Austria :)
My kid have the same age as yours
@@brainfood4you wo hast du es gesehen? War der beste 3d film den ich jeh gesehen habe.
@@ernailyani811 like a good wine: produced in a good year :)
Every bit of the movie is seemingly crafted with imagination & creativity. Can imagine how much effort has put in to make it. I appreciate the professionalism.
This movie was so beautiful I sobbed throughout the entire thing. Beginning to end, truly a masterpiece. Highly recommend watching it in theatres.
I saw this movie yesterday in IMAX and 3D and I felt like a kid in the candy store. The CGI is immaculate in this movie. It just looks so real makes me want to go to Pandora
Yoy can experience it in Florida!!!
@@cely24m absolutely you're right
@@cely24m I’m really impressed with your comment if you don’t mind friendship where are you from?
Same This Movie is spectacular 🥶🐐
Same ❤❤❤
7 minutes, 15 seconds.... Even the toughest men in the Navy Seals can do about half that time. Super impressive stuff! If that's not dedicating to an art, I don't know what is!
They would have used pure oxygen to over saturate there blood.
No o2 and a bit of training 3-4mins is a more achievable goal
FYI I’m a free diver 😊
@@thepenguin2427 I done 6 mins at the age of 18 so I can see someone trained doing 7. I was just at a pool party doing a dare no oxygen tank.
@Tom Boney You can see the O2 tank and line in the video. Im not discrediting her 7 minute 15 sec breath hold because that is incredible, but she definitely did her breath-up with 100% O2. I have always been perplexed with this breath hold because it did not make sense, but now it does.
Spearfisher/freediver as well👍
please look up O2 assisted breath holding. Something they conveniently omitted in the promotion of this movie and also in this "explainer" video. The truth is anyone can hold the breath for 7 minutes with a little bit of training, provided it's done on O2. In this particular case a mixture of 80% O2 and 20% N2 was used for the static breathhold which you see in the footage, and a ratio of 50% O2 with 50% N2 for the action scenes. Blue pill or red pill. Hollywood for sure wants you tot take the blue pill.
@@gertleroy um, yeah, well ... "anyone can" is not "anyone will." so, you know, it's still impressive and something beyond most will ever achieve. you merely explain how. you can't touch why. oh, but do let me guess--you're going to say "money." LOLLLLLLLLL
This movie in 3d was one of the most insane cinematic experiences I've had in a while.
Best movie I’ve ever seen in my life. I didn’t want it to end I could of watched hours more of it!! I saw it in 3D and I literally felt like I was immersed in their world. Incredible!!
What an amazing movie at IMAX 3D. On the edge of your seat throughout the whole movie. Looking forward to the next 2 sequels Dec 20, 2024
Try 2025-2027
@@4ashtray319 the 3rd movie is supposed to be set for next ywar
Another reason to stay alive and healthy until 2027
I couldn’t agree more. I just saw it yesterday in IMAX 3-D for my birthday here in the UK. Saw it on a curved screen so that definitely added to the experience as well. I was so immersed I think I felt all the joy I had from when I saw the first film, all those years ago, all over again. James Cameron, all of the cast, all the artist, camera crew in technicians, have done it again and gone beyond. Can’t wait for 2024. my mind is bristling with ideas of where the story will go.
@@curlyflow3720 Actually 2024, so two years from now. It is unfortunate, but for this level of work they have to do, it only makes sense and we should 100% not rush them. We waited well over a decade to see where the story would go. What’s two more years.😊
Mad props to the actors. They went through the ringer to bring us this cinematic event. This movie is more about passion and commitment than dollar signs, which they will make back.
To work with Camaron demands such commitment! He himself is one of the, if not, the most commited director I have ever seen. We are so luck to have him. RESPECT
This is just pure talent and ART, not just another movie
A legendary movie indeed. We owe James & all the cast for this amazing movie experienced. ❤
It’s so pretty 😍
@@prettiestbaddie4194 Looking forward for Alita 2 also❤️
I watched Avatar 1 when my daughter was just some months old. Now I can take her to Avatar 2 with me. What a masterpiece!
This is phenomenal! Awesome special effects! Like someone else said, this isn't just a movie, this is simply art. GENIUS!!
This really makes you appreciate the work behind the scenes of movies like Avatar.
Just watched Avatar 2 a few days ago, and it did not disappoint. Mad respect to James Cameron and the actors for their dedication to the craft
Kerwm
This movie is literally pure ART and TALENT
In this movie l mostly like the character 'kiri' in her avatar form .... because she is very calm and having overwhelming heart 💖 this makes her special..✨
Just come back from watching it. It’s a three hours of masterpiece. It doesn’t feel like 3h at all, it keeps you wanting more. It’s a 10/10 for me
the dedication and commitment the whole team has huge respect for them
This is not movie, this is masterpiece
This is the hole "it's not a mistake it's a✨masterpiece✨ " all over again.
This movie is an absolute spiritual experience. I am very grateful that we have space for such an amazing, talented, hardworking people, who treat us with such a highly profound masterpiece of art.
Spiritual experience? There was like zero spirituality
This just makes me want to watch this movie even more. I know it take ALOT to put films together. But the lengths that these actors and actresses go through just to make sure it’s PERFECTION is everything and as cliche as it sounds. It means a lot that they not only do it for themselves because they love it , but they do it for their fans ❤️ I’m in awe
GIVE THIS MAN AN AWARD LIKE LITERALLY IVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. his flowers while he is here today b4 it’s too late plz🥺
and Reya is fine whoever made her did a got dam great job lol she was so pretty
James Cameroon is a legend. Period. what a masterpiece. very well done by all the actors.
So great to see that they're not replacing everything with CGI and actors are not just actors, they become their character by improving their skills...they basically turn into athletes, LOVE IT!
Thanks for commenting you have been selected among the winners for today contact me to claim your prize right now👆♐♐♐♐♐..
This is insane. The amount of work that goes into it and how the actors have to really act underwater. That's crazy. It came out really perfect and amazing! I totally loved it! Every second of it!
I watched it yesterday.... I felt like i have transported to Pandora, the movie was unquestionably a visual miracle and an emotional movie too.... It has an equal importance to na'vi people's emotions..... I loved the movie and hats off to cameroon for capturing the emotional sequences and also depicting the minute detailing that also in CGI😱😱😱😱 and that is not a small thing.....from the water droplets on the face of na'vis when they come out of water to the battle sequences...... Just mind blowing..... 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I cant stop rewarching both movies 😭
TY for posting this. This is truly ART. from everyone who was involved. So spectacular. I still haven't recovered from the movie.
I watched it yesterday. The story, the characters, the environment, are just no words to express. Avatar is the best movie of all time. Cant wait for the 3 sequels to come. Im glad we do not have to wait 13 yrs.
Where did u watch it
@@curiousminds5149 In the Cinema obviously? 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Same here. Just saw it yesterday in UK cinemas in IMAX 3D. Without a doubt one of the greatest cinematic experiences of my life. Just like the first film over a decade ago. They’ve taken the story and the visuals to new heights. but everyone else, I cannot wait to see where the story will go come up with so many salt mines running through my head. Unfortunately we will have to wait two years, but with art like this, you cannot rush it. Let us continue to watch this film in cinemas again and again, and meet up there again in the near future.
Camaron really is on a whole new level! Always full of new ideas and creativity to make the movie interesting and real. The actors and actresses were also incredible with learning these swimming/breathing/diving techniques, it rlly aint easy
definitely a good method to keep your actors in line, humbled by water.
It's very clear how much everyone, from the cast to the crew, love this series. The lengths they go to in order to make it as good as it is make that love so evident.
I've seen it twice in two days. It is a breathtaking, very emotional experience. Really a magnificent creation!!!
I can say only one thing this is like I'm unable to believe that people have such a "PASSION" towards their craft I'm overwhelmed to watch, experience and know more about their work. Thanks to Xplained channel too.. for explaining how this visual wonder took place
James Cameron. What a Genius. Putting The Entire Team Together. Awesome Performance. Huge Respect!!!
The way how James Cameron ilustrates the bonding between natives and their surrounding, water in this case, is touching to say the least. Im a nature lover and this movie delivers the message: we never should disrespect Mother Nature
I have never seen such an amazing movie in my life...
I'm amazed that so many actors have given such a good performance..
I congratulate all the artists that all of you make a lot of progress in your life..
Great work👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am a 31y old grown man with a more than solid mindset etc etc, but after watching this movie i had to hold my breath and my whole last year flew in front of my eyes and i cried, i really did. I just cried. (watched it just today). This movie touches your soul. I can not explain it any better.
wow, I watch Avatar 2 yesterday with my family. it is an amazing movie. you much watch until the end. starting the story a bit slow and pulling back but by nearly the last hour you understand why the story will slow down. it is beautiful and touches my heart. hold day today I feel want to watch it again. love it
This is such an astonishing movie! Can’t get over it! This movie deserves the hype! Definitely will watch part 3!
What a dedication of Director and Actors, infact the whole team made this movie awesome.
Waiting for the sequel 2 😊
James Cameron is genius and a perfectionist when it comes to his films. He always goes above and beyond & never disappoints. That's why he's the best in the industry.
Just came back from seeing it.
And man it was something else. Beautiful work, truly a master piece and i can't wait to rewatch it untill the next one comes out!
All of this just blows my mind - everything single thing about this movie is _magical_
What a luxury to be able to watch it, and enjoy all of this talent, from everyone.
Dude this is not content, It’s quality content that people actually want to watch… Big thumbs up to you and your hard work and keep making this kind of videos. Love you 3000 ❤
this is from another world! For me, the whole production needs an oscar and for sure, ALL actors!! just the fact to learn be under water soooo long is soo brave! its just aaamazing! AVATAR is for me one of the best movies, but the fact what kind of work is it behind, makes it such more special! RESPECT!!
This is truly remarkable, not only is the movie incredible, but everything that happened behind the scenes is truly breathtaking. Holding your breath for that long?
Absolutely magnificent, bravo 👏👏👏
i cried so much it was amazing the movie 10/10. I would watch it twice
I watched it twice already in 3d and 4dx. I think I should give 2d a try too now.
I watched this film yesterday and it was one of my favorite movies
I'm watching it on Christmas day as a Christmas present. I've been waiting YEARS for this. I'm so excited 😊 this'll be the greatest gift EVER 😄
@@aaliyahbugggMake sure you see it in imax 3D or Imax laser 3D. Was so beautiful. My little sister was almost in tears when they took the first dive underwater.
I am at the theatre watching, and every scene took my breath away. Mega Epic!
13 years of waiting!! Definitely worth it. What a masterpiece🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️
James Cameron is legend and you showed hard n smart work behind the camera is just mind blowing, keep doing and showing us things xplained...😎💯😇
Hats-off to this film, worth the wait, we'll definitely wait for 2 more yrs again for another sequel, avatar never disappoints the viewers. Bravo!!
Incredible! Cameron's a master. The whole team's professional. Thanks a lot for the masterpiece
Already watch it 3 times and I can't get enough it's soo amazing .
Dude .. Massive huge respect to the entire team!
its sooo crazy how they make films like this... so much work put in..amazing
the dedication, talent, and passion of everyone involved in this movie is just on a whole other level
by far the most effort put into a movie ever. james will never not amaze me
I just watched this yesterday. They did one hell of a job on this one.
This movie is a hell of a spectacle ❤️ to see the dedication that went into this film behind the scenes makes me have a newfound appreciation for the general production communities out there!
Simply incredible. Saw this movie last night and my heart is still entrilled. 10/10. Best movie ever.
I watch avatar yesterday it's was so worth it of waiting.. it so amazing.. the effort the action it's total package
Huge applause. Very dedicated cast and crew
Fantastic experience, even in 2D it seemed so real, as if we watched good documentary. 🌊🐟🌟
This is probably the Sci-fi movie of the century, I haven't seen anything artistic like this 👏👏👏👏
I loved this movie, saw it twice.. Every moment is visually stunning and such a blissful ride.
This is the most beautiful movie I have ever seen. The world of Pandora is truly magical
This was not a movie but an experience of a lifetime 🥹
Hai
Yes its true! You watch this movie full of life, beauty, connection, energy, freedom and joy of movement, makes your soul soar! Seems right! And then you come out of cinema into this inverted, anti- god/anti- life matrix, where everything is designed to suck life out of you, where all food, air and water is full of toxins, nature is being disrespected and poluted, life choices and creativity restricted by "laws" , people are exhausted, sick and depressed, cities are dirty, ugly and "dead", and life force is just not flowing ( more like pond water ) and real love, union and loyalty is hard to come by. And you think to yourself : what the f**ck im doing here?!

To the Cast and Crew.... thank you for your service 🫡💗
Can’t even imagine how difficult this was to make entirely in CG
You can really see the passion behind this movie!
