Producers : "let's start filming now"
Cameron : no my idea is too grand for our current level of technology
Too be fair that's the only thing avatar has its story has been done way better by other movies like dances with wolfs
I prefer this over george lucas' approach,
"Oh shit, we have good tech now?? I need to... 'fix' something"
@@Tsaooyoh true
Cameron: I’m 4 parallel universes ahead of you.
@@ln7929 dont see why its a competition. You can say your opinion without sounding rude.
I don't understand how this movie still looks so good. Even in 2020 I can't think of any CGI that looks better off the top of my head. The colors are incredible. and you are right, it makes up for any stock characters or derivative story components. James Cameron literally makes new technology almost every time he makes a movie. He is a beast and is truly in his own league.
The only CGI I can think of that rivals this is Davy Jones from POTC
These are both true. You can see that both movies had amazing and astonishing. Care and imagination given to them
Imagine if he would have waited until say.. 2015, how even more incredible it would have looked
I personally think that the best CGI to date is from War for the Planet of the apes! It’s crazy how realistic it is
Brendan Morin almost forget that that movie if practically all cgi
James Cameron is not known for complicated and unique stories, rather he’s known for the insane amount of detail he puts into them. Honestly it’s why I love this movie. I’m still finding new details that I didn’t notice, and that’s not just from a visual front
He is a beast in world building
You’ve seen the Lorax book Easter egg in that movie?
@@MSaleh-vy8rr I have not
I honestly don't care about what others have to say about this movie. It holds a special place in my heart and is one of the movies that my father and I bonded over when I was a kid. I'm so pumped for the sequel!
I am at the same place like you so, its funny to find people with the same thoughts💪🏾✌🏾✌🏾
try fishing
If people didn't like it, it wouldn't have made so much money.
Same man! Avatar blew my mind when I was a kid.
OMG! Same here. People think I'm crazy for loving this movie. I loved it as a kid when it came out, and I still love it as an adult.
I was 9 years old when Avatar came out. As you can probably guess it was absolutely magical for me. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched it
Same, i was 8 and i saw it in 3D. It's the most impactful movie ever for me, along with Interstellar (which i saw in IMAX)
@@user-lp7tx1fe6t 😭I WAS 2 YEARS OLD WHEN THE FIRST AVATAR CAME OUT WHICH IS CRAZY
dunno how old i was but when i watched this movie damn it was great
That was like me with Jurassic Park 👍🏻
I was in 8th grade and had just turned 13
I remember when this was released, some German news reported a wave of depression among viewers. Because the Avatar world was so beautiful, knowing they have to go back out to the lackluster real world made them depressed. Some older ladies who were coming out were saying that they saw heaven.
This movie was a visual masterpiece. I remember reading how people leaving the theaters in complete amazement. Some moviegoers were depressed returning to the real world.
The colors were amazing. Watching this movie in "true IMAX" theaters was an awe inspiring experience.
Thanks for this video.
lol nice
I was mad that I'd wasted money and 3 hours of my life for garbage
@@xg3990 lol the sequels to this movies will neber come all the actors will be old by then
I heard people committed suicide over it. Not the movie, but its themes...
I know for me personally it's awoken me to the destruction of colonism. And the true nature of humans-greed.
Suicide wow thats just overreacting.
As much as people love to hate on this movie, it still holds a special place in my heart. It was my very first 3D movie back in 2009 when I had just turned 10. And despite people saying "Oh who cares about the sequel(s)" I'm looking forward to them!
3D films turned out to be just a fad that came and went. I don't think they even do 3D anymore
3D was just the same flash in the pan effect as it was back in the 50s
@eating sugar no papa I never said I hated it but I've been hearing about the 4 sequels planned for it for 10 years now and still, nothing
Zoe Saldana has appeared as Gamora 4 times now
Sam Worthington Giovanni Ribisi and Joel David Moore? I haven't heard of a single project they've done in 5 years or more
Michelle Rodrigez died in the movie and she moved on to the Fast And Furious movies
What? Are the next four movies going to center on Netriri and her alone?
Omg same thing for me :D, same age as well
@@doraemon5990 Lovely!
Same for me!
It's the greatest cinematic experience that I have ever had and I've been going to the cinema for 50 years.
Damn
Amen buddy!
As someone who was 3 when Avatar came out, and has a good chance to get to see all of them, I really, really hope you will as well
Regardless of the story or acting, it is definitely one of the most beautifully done movies. A movie Blu-ray and 3d tvs where made for. Can only imagine how it'd look in 4k or 8k...
Avatar is still the only 3D movie I'd pay to see in 3D again.
You can watch it in VR, it's better than a cinema
They released a remaster in theaters again, it was great.
@@BaldTrent I took my kids to see it as their first 3D movie experience and they loved it
AVATAR STILL RULES!!
I love how much people are talking about it again after the release of Avatar: The Way of Water.
So glad our community has fully come alive again and sharing the love for one of the greatest movies to ever grace our eyes.
It's been a long 13 years, but the sequels are here to take over the world again!
Would you ever consider talking about the Martian’s from war of the worlds 2005
Yes, it's on the to-do list!
FilmComicsExplained yay!
That will be a good one.
That movie still freaks me out
The War of the Worlds 2005 adaptation was a lackluster for its taste.
The pacing were too rush and the acting ain't very realistic.
It didn't give the feeling of dread and hopelessness in facing the extraterrestrials that wanted nothing more to wipeout mankind. The days timeline doesn't match up as well in this adaptation since from the original concept, it taken a long time for the aliens to succumbed to death from the Earth's microorganism.
Since Avatar 2 focus on Underwater of Pandora, I could Just imagine Subnautica, idk why, I just feel those kinds of creatures will be there
I'm 10 months late, but I was thinking Subnautica myself!! YES!!! I hope Cameron takes some inspiration from the game and puts it in a movie.
I don't think it's gonna be on Pandora the second movie but on earth, I would be sad if it don't follow logic geopolitical issues that arise when a colonie gain independence.
So refreshing to see someone else who loves this movie, it gets so much hate but I love the hell out of it.
Just avoid SJW platforms like reddit and twitter. They love to shit on this movie about how it has no cultural impact and how people doesn't care about it and yet they make this an everyday topic LMAO
well earned hate
@@randomly_random_0 What? The movie is literally anti-imperialist and anti-colonialist with a focus on the effects of climate change. It is the most "SJW" movie and it is great. Stop making everything about dumb culture war shit.
It's unfortunate how close minded and hateful people are.
It's good this movie did very well and I look forward to it sequel.
Just because a movie does good doesn’t mean it is good. Look at all the Michael bay movies
@@marcusj1167 avatar is good. it's a fact - Steven Spielberg said it was greatest sci-fi film since Star Wars A New Hope
@@marcusj1167 Imagine writing and thinking of a movie like this and taking years and years to make it. Only for people who wants to hate popular things to try and look cool because their taste are "better". Anyways it was a good movie I would watch it 9 times out of 10
@@marcusj1167 No, Avatar is a good movie and is nothing like Michael Bays trash
@@marcusj1167 avatar was great tho the adventure and aw this movie conveys hasn’t been repeated since and just as a side note if you take the transformers movies for what they are I find them quite enjoyable.
Idgaf what anyone says; going to see this movie in theatres truly was just an experience unlike any other, and i kinda hope they re-re-RE-release it again in theatres a little bit before the sequel comes out just because that would be amazing (and might even have it de-throne Endgame, which i feel was nowhere close to deserving the top spot. Tho im sure avatar 2 will do that anyway. At least i sure as hell HOPE it's good enough to)
screw Endgame dude lol
I think infinity war was way better than endgame. Endgame IMO didnt live up its hype. Whatever tho
@@genz402 I definitely liked Infinity War more than Endgame. Endgame felt generic :/
@@oldmanjinkinsskyrim737 forreal
@@genz402 Cape shit is garbage.
As much as a sequels could be cool I hope they don’t rattle them off like Disney did with Star Wars
Cameron aint that stupid
They just need good writers and keep good designers.
I hope Disney's grubby hands don't force or pressure the production for money
@@cyprus1005 don'g know about that he did make dark fate and it was awful.
I feel this franchise is one them that Flops so bad. Like Star Wars, Terminator, Fast and Furious. It's all for money, and c'mon, it made a billion dollars. You think these greedy bastards would care about good writing? It's all about money. Especially the type of generation we live in with ppl bitching about films being too racist. Like the critics would probably give it a bad reviews, and SJW would try cancelling it saying its racist towards blue ppl even they don't exist. Right now we live in a society full of clowns, that's how stupid they are and ppl over twitter.
Avatar remains the only film in my books that I payed and watch 6 different time at the box office for it. 4 of them at IMAX/3D cost. It remains the most immersive and emotion evocating movie that I have watch in my life. Totally worth it every dollar in my entertaining budget.
The Revenant
@@ZEFFENWULF 🤣
I will never forget seeing this movie. It was the first movie I saw after I finally got a job with insurance was able to afford glasses(I was 19). I swear to you after years of blurry movies it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen and I sobbed😂 I'm glad this was the movie my new eyes got to enjoy
That’s amazing awesome story!! Hope your vision is better now!!
That’s such an amazing story! Glad to hear your vision is better now!
I watched AVATAR when I was 7. Even now I can remember the sheer awe and love I felt for the characters and the story as I sat in the family room with my brother and parents. I remember how upset I got when I was afraid the Pandora would be destroyed and my favorite characters might die. I haven't watched that movie in years though I definitely need to. Even If it doesn't pull at me as much as the vague pieces of memory do it'll always have a special place in my heart as the movie I remember best from when I was little.
_But then everything changed when the Human Nation attacked_
Humanity is the fire nation
The humans greed would be there undoing it's got some elements from two Disney movies pocahontas and Atlantis the lost empire
And then high marshall of black templars shouted.
"SUFFER NOT THE XENOS TO LIVE"
*human Company. if a powerful human nation like the US, China or Russia invade Pandora the Na'vi are so fucked.
That's, rough buddy
When I first saw this movie. I realized I needed glasses. There was so much going on and I couldn’t see most of it. had to go see it a second time in HD. I never knew how much I was missing until this movie.
I will say. It is one of the very few movies/ shows that shows what happens to your legs when you can't use them. I really liked that about the movie. Just a generic math note. With the new videocards with their render times. It would take around 187.5 days to just render the movie.
I was so (positively!) supprised when they depicted it so accurately!
Avatar is the movie that made me fall in love with sci fi and fantasy!
hopefully you found some quality stuff because this movie is terrible
Avatar is probably my favorite movie of all time. Pandora keeps to amaze and fascinate me every time a watch and makes me think about the possible life out there in the almost never ending universe.
"Avatar Explained"
Well, it all started when the Avatar disappeared when needed the most
Wrong avatar but it still appies, gg
Lmao I actually had an action figure of Jake and his Horse from McDonald's when I was 8.
same
same
Who else when they started watching this video began remembering a million details even though you hadn't watched since 2009/2010?
Yaaaassss!!
FilmComicsExplained: *makes video about Avatar and says he loves it
Internet: "why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?"
I always thought this movie was too under appreciated. I personally can't wait for the sequels.
j_shorty2: “Too under appreciated.”
The 2.9 Billion dollars it made in the Box Office: “Am I a joke to you?”
Idk what people hate. I love this soo much. It made me feel wonder and Adventure like no other
@@yamumisgae people dont care for it because the story was so bland and unoriginal. The movie looks Amazing, the movie played out like a game engine showcase and less like a movie
@@bloodydove5718 I agree. I've seen the story too many times. But dressing up mutton like lamb didn't make it any more interesting to me. I saw it once and tried watching it again a few times. I've never been able to watch it again from start to finish.
It's a 'young' person's movie, who hasn't seen the story repeated over and over throughout the years going back to the John Wayne western era.
What's "brave" about this? Is a mediocre movie with amazing visual effects.
Honestly I always felt Avatar was one of the most beautiful movies/stories I’ve ever seen. Not only visually beautiful but also the message overall of the story is very beautiful! It makes you feel very empathetic towards to Navi and the planet as a whole!
I won’t lie, I love this movie mostly because I’m indigenous to North America. Gave me a sense of pride and honour when I was a kid with no hope.
I was 8 when this came out, and it had such a huge impact on me, I’m 22 now and hadn’t watched it in years (I used to watch it basically daily ages 8-11/12) and I’ve literally just finished watching it and wow did I forget how good it was, it filled me with nostalgia and actually made me emotional a few times, just made me feel like a kid again, definitely one of the best, most stunning movies to ever grace the earth, I haven’t seen 2 yet but I can’t wait to now no matter what other people think, we’re lucky James Cameron blessed is with the world of pandora, it’s one of the only films I’ve ever watched that makes you really feel like it’s somewhat real, and because I watched it growing up and it had such a big impact on me it just has this really weird sentimental value to it that like I said makes me emotional for some reason, amazing video too!
One of the most mindblowing was watching it the first time in theatre. Simply amazing
Imagine being biggest fan of James Cameron, Avatar and everything about this world and then one day get picked up as an extra to shoot sequels, seeing Jim in person while making his magic. Sounds like a dream? No, just my life ☺️
That's great, bud.
It would be fantastic to be part of the world of Pandora!
This movie felt more like a Disney adventure movie than a sci-fi movie.
Funny, doesn’t Disney own the rights, or at least the distribution rights, to Avatar now?
Let see avatar Is century fox......... and who bought fox?
You're not wrong, Its story is somewhat similar to Disney's Atlantis
Might be because it borrows from Pocahontas, and a few other films
Edit: I’d actually say it’s not really a very original movie. Still a great film though.
No it didn't.
Avatar is an incredible world, extremely immersive. This video was awesome! Cameron is the best director 💯
Something I noticed at one of my most recent watch throughs is that Jake’s avatar body has five fingers compared to the other Na’Vi who have four fingers because Jake’s avatar is bred with both Na’Vi and human DNA. Just thought that it was a cool detail that you don’t realize until you watched it a hundred times
They said at the start of the film "Avatars are created with human DNA"
James Cameron: I’m limited by the technology of my time
I went to see it twice when it released. I would 100% go watch this again in theatres if they released it again. Visually it is still breathtaking and I fell in love with the planet. I can't wait to go back in the sequel.
If you love this movie you HAVE to ride flight of passage in Disney world. From the moment you enter the queue you enter a world and the ride Oh my god it’s absolutely gorgeous. The world itself is so beautiful from the floating mountains to how everything glows at night. It is one of the most amazing places I’ve ever seen. Wish I could put pics here.
Cant wait for the 2nd avatar coming out soon
You've been waiting more than 10 years... keep waiting.
@@jpbenavides4969 You don't know much about cinema history do you?..
@@jpbenavides4969 james cameron is not your typical director who rush movies. He doesn't please the studio or his fans. He did it with his previous movies like Aliens, The Abyss, Terminator 2, and Titanic which critics and studio exectives said will be a big failure. But Cameron insisted to push the production anyway even if the budget balloons. And you know what happened. They turned out to be successful films. He doesn't want to rush things out just because his fans or studio want them to be released for competition. *he works slowly but surely*
@Juan Benavides “I’m an idiot who doesn’t know anything about movies.”
This just remind me that there was an actual thing called Pandora fever where after people watched the film they didn't wanna live on earth anymore cause earth seemed lame. I ain't lying.
Understandable, a Planet with toxic air, full of Dangerous creature, racist alien Is way Better than earth
@@betarlogaione9773 right, I think it wasn't even just about the movie world but everyone thought they were a main character and would be "accepted" by aliens. Some real nuts lmao
I grew up writing, being an only child and a strict father dominating the family dynamic I didnt go to the park or have friends come over; ever. So I escaped with a pencil and blank piece of paper. I want to have that determination of "My story is too grand our time has to catch up with it to even attempt showing it on a screen."
You know this is nyat's favorite movie when its 30 minutes long and a follow up video is 1 hour long and i don't blame him
This movie's a masterpiece
The fact that the four sequels have been greenlight and two of them are in post while the 4 and 5 are currently filming before the first sequel was even released is pretty incredible. They very clearly believe this is going to be a massive success and I tend to agree. This franchise is going to make billions and billions of dollars. I liked the first film quite a bit, it was truly unique and they put a ton of effort into the production.
One of my favorite sci-fi movies, really looking forward to the sequel.
@@Farquad76.547 agreed
@@Farquad76.547 why do you hate it im genuinely curious and im not a avatar fan ngl but the film is quite cliché.

Glad to see someone else who fell in love with Avatar and the world of Pandora!! I heard the sequel may be underwater-based and I’m super excited for more details!
the abyss
This movie is my absolute favorite ever. The world and lore is epic in all the good ways. I can only hope the sequels are as good.
Who would’ve thought unobtanium would be hard to get.
Love This!!! Not sure if we really need 20 minutes of footage before the video even begins, but you hit all the best points!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Watched this twice in IMAX the effects were just stunning
Oohh man I've been waiting for the sequels since day 1...
Avatar was a masterpiece of technology and creativity.
I became a hardcore fan of SUBNAUTICA because of how the biomes looked like Pandora
One of the best changes in CZcams films in a while is the breakdown of the video into clearly defined parts. It’s clean and lets an audience see the clearly top notch creators as it allows them to show of better writing talent and proper transition between topics.
Bravo.
Came here because I'm watching the movie in the theater again tomorrow. This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much for this great video and the amount of effort you've put in collecting all the information, background information and overall explanation off the process. You did one hell of a job. Soooo excited to watch the details with this perspective, thanks!!
I love this movie! My parents and I compared the Navi to the Native Americans, I'm half Native American on my mother's side, and noticed how the white settlers were destroying their homes and try to wipe them out, until they learn to fight back. You also notice greedy corporations come and try to destroy something they could never understand. It's "Star Wars meets Dances With Wolves."
I’m half Choctaw, and that connection still makes me tear up a little when the home tree gets destroyed. The actors were amazing in that scene and I felt that sadness of watching their world crumble around them. I wondered if that’s how my people felt when they were forced to march on the trail of tears. I can’t watch all of Dances with Wolves, it hits home too well.
Gawani Mateus its the white saviour has to show the natives how make a stand. Dances with wolves and the last samurai did the same thing. I hate it!
The movie was about the survival of our very race... If we dont get this ore/crystals, we wont leave earth and our entire species dies. Little bit different stake. Humans even tried to be diplomatic but the navi didnt want that. WTF ARE HUMANS SUPPOSED TO DO EXCEPT USE VIOLENCE.
@@bananalover721 you really missed the whole point of the movie. Humans destroyed themselves by focusing their effort into getting this rare metal rather than saving their own dying planet.
@@leadpencil-223 at the start of the movie they literally said. "We need this to search for more habitable planets". You cant save earth if earth if the fucking sun obliterates it btw. Everything the protagonist did in this movie was beyond stupid.
Michelle's character has a nicely painted helicopter thingy.
There you go.
I’ll never forget when this came out. I was a freshman in high school and saw it in theaters at least 5 times. I even would sneak in the avatar themed Big Mac McDonald’s was selling at the time. Such awesome memories will always live with me because of this film. James Cameron is a human treasure. I’d like to thank him for making such timeless amazing films. Everyone can remember fondly the first one they fell in love with and he just keeps the greatness coming!
This video was amazing, you covered so much info with so much detail it was over before I even knew it. Thanks filmcomics 💜
Taking the cast out to an actual jungle just to give them a cerebral vision of situations and what/where they are during scenes was brilliant.
Earth of the future sounds pretty interesting. Hyperloops and Megacties everywhere.
Ah yes, admittedly their is flaws with Avatar but goddamn is that bio-sphere breath taking.
there are major plot holes. they're major plot holes. Their grammar is incorrect
I am so in love with this movie. I can't get enough of it.
I saw it in theaters the first week, and after that, using every excuse to go back. Having seen it 4 times in theater, with different groups of friends. Each time treating my friends and family to enjoy the film with me. I still watch it over and over on dvd. It has a place in my heart, for sure.
Thanks for making this so in depth, I do appreciate when the videos are longer, even if I’m really late.
I can't wait for the sequel's!!! This was an awesome movie that took you to their world. I just wish more books, and movies put just as much if not more work into their worlds and characters. You may say some where underutilized, but if they were to truly flesh everything out in the first movie it would take at least 3 movies. To flesh out everything they tried their best to cover in the first move. Wish we could get a 3-5 novel version of the movie telling everything and fleshing out the entire universe that AVATAR takes place in.
so damn good. I just finished rewatching it. No wonder it did so well, everything is made to a standard that still looks awesome even today. It doesn't have that weird effect where you look at it and can see the outdated tech used. Especially love the soundtrack, imma download it for my soundtracks play list.
This was simply a fantastic video !!!! Great work. I’m sure you were at it for ages! Thank you :)
It's so good it plays on every television in every appliance store in malls.
Call me a movie nerd but few movies give me goosebumps like this one does. The visuals, sound, story, acting, everything hits me so hard when I see this movie. I am so excited for the sequels!
Glad you liked it, but I don’t know why the story gives you goose bumps. It’s practically a sci fi remake of Dances With Wolves, not exactly creative writing.
I always like this film but what bugs me was we never shown what earth look like. Or jake life before pandora, I seen clip in the trailer but in the film they just cut it off
Look for the deleted scenes. They show a little bit of Jake on Earth in the first scene.
@@abisspassenger that's the director's cut not a deleted scene
You need to watch the Directors cut.
When a Canadian goes to Hollywood and makes it easier for the public to understand indigenous rights. He met with tribes around Canada and America.
He even got the idea of the gathering of tribes in the movie, From real life when the biggest gathering is held. The gathering of nations, A’ho that is a sight. You got tribes from the arctic to the tribes of the southern Mexico, most years we get tribes from
South America doing an awesome trip and representing there tribe. Back in the days before the Europeans landed there used to be a gathering held by the Aztecs/Mayans that would get people from both continents.
Since than there is an World indigenous games. They start of doing a POW-WOW or a gathering that is custom to the host county/land it is held on.
Bravo to you James Cameron. You recreated that moment on film and presented it to the world.
Great video! I'm definitely excited for the sequels because, as you mentioned, a world like Pandora has a lot of fun potential and mystery for interesting stories to be told there. Considering Cameron has assembled a writing team for the sequels and his track record when it comes to directing sequels, it's a solid bet that he's going to make sure the stories and characters are even stronger this time around too. Looking forward to some images/a trailer for the film too, so I can get hyped up even more!
I just re-watched it yesterday 😁
God I love this movie
Avatar was and always will be my top favorite cgi, insane scenery, incredible visuals, absolutely stunning creature designing, and one of the most creative films of all time. And I don’t think any movie so far has and can’t beat what Avatar had as a truly visual at awe movie.
I was nine when I first saw this, and over a decade later it still is my favourite movie and will always hold a special place in my heart.
I'm totally cool with more long videos like this, I understand that many movies cant fill a 30 minute video but even a video covering a movie and sequel(s) could be cool
I also love this movie. I thought it was so amazing when i first saw it, and I still think it is amazing. I also understand the flaws but I love it nonetheless. And i am excited for the sequels.
This was a great video onec Again man and I'm gald you took the time to give credit for the amazing and spectacular job everyone who worked on this film did!!
See - long videos do get loved by your fans Niyat! I love this video, you go into fantastic detail about all aspects of the film & production. Please do more like this 💜
The most impossible thing about this film is that bows and arrows defeated attack helicopters and assault rifles
they aim for the head
Let's nuke it from the orbit. That's the only way to be sure. Sorry, different Cameron movie!
kingj411 Well they are way bigger than humans so that’s string pole would be way way more like maybe 450 pounds. And we don’t know what material they they made the arrow head are made of.
Just seems strange when you realize the military could’ve just used some kind of long range artillery to bombard the huge tree at the end, instead of just throwing all their forces in one direction towards an enemy in their backyard.
kingj411 Yeah it’s almost like they had people there advising against stuff like that because it would be in humane.
"his name is james, james cameron.. the bravest pioneer, no budget to steep, no sea to deep it who, it's him JAMES CAMERON" south park fans know!
I think the thing I loved the most is that one of my favorite artists of all time and one of my greatest inspirations designed the critters for the movie. Wayne Barlowe is awesome and he's is so good at making creatures that are so strange yet perfectly exist in their own environment at the same time.
Great "documentary" on Avatar. I was 18 when it came, and me and my mom were so blown away by it, that one week after seeing it, on New Year's Eve, we took the car and drove 100 kilometers to the nearest 3D movie theater, to see it again, in 3D.
I don't get the haters who spent much of the last ten years laughing at Avatar. The only weakness of this film is its story, and while I tend to find that a pretty glaring weakness, Avatar has so much more that holds it up, that it's still a 9/10, and it definitely deserved all that revenue.
I sincerely hope they polish the story and characters a little more in 2 and 3, so we can get 4 and 5.
The Way of Water is the first film I'm excited about in probably 4-7 years, since just about every other big franchise messed up seemingly on purpose. Cameron is one who I absolutely trust not to subvert his story and world for cheap political points. He's there to show a world and tell a story and that's it.
Pandora is a Dyson Spehere, it’s Disney’s Atlantis: The Lost Empire Concept.
I love this movie but my expectations on the sequel are dismal :(
I still expect Avatar 2 to do well, just not as well as the original. I peg it as making around 700 million at the box office
Yeah, it's just the Corporate greed trying to milk Avatar as much they can. Its like another Star Wars and Terminator.
@@mitchellskene8176 are you nuts? lol
The Lion King 2019 was a re release of 1994 version with CGI and it sucked. Yet it made nearly 1.7 billion... Avatar 2 will be huge
@@MSaleh-vy8rr No it's not it's what James Cameron himself wants he also plans on a writing a book he clearly just loves exploring the world of the movie and the characters in it
@@jackcassidy9963 this. I dont blame him for loving this world. As Im watching scenes from this movie in this video, I still dont believe this came out 2009 and it still has cgi comparable to 2019 movies and will probably still hold up for more years and the designs were great.
I was speechless when I saw the film way back 2009. It was visually breathtaking. It was the first time I ever realized the infinite possibilities in filmmaking and special effects
Dude I’m a huge fan of the longer form vids. Amazing job man
The AMOUNT of effort put into this movie and people call it "boring" or not "interesting" is beyond me. Delusional people for sure.
Effort doesn't equal good....
I've been thinking about this, what about the timing of the movie. If (whether or not is true) if the movie was made or released before or after the great recession, would this movie get the same box office success? Because of that whole "Avatar" effect thing.
Thank you so much for all of these videos. They are great!
Avatar, alongside The Avengers, were the first two movies I ever went back to see more than once, but Avatar was the one that I saw nearly half a dozen times. I could not have been more stunned by this masterpiece.
The Moon, Pandora is a typical Death-World just like Australia... Straya!
Just like Catachan

Hey I was wondering if you could do the anti-life equation from DCeased?
Adding it to the list now! Thanks :)
@@filmcomicsexplained thanks man!!
Thank you as always for great content. 🙏🏽👍🏽
Watched it in regular 3D the first time it came out. I still to this day recall my friend's wife who was sitting next to me gasp in amazement at the world of Pandora. I couldn't even blink myself. For those two and a half hours, James Cameron transported me back to an age of innocence, wonder, and childhood nostalgia. I went back to see it again, this time in IMAX 3D with my then 10 year old brother. Again, just as with the first time, blown away, but to an even more substantial degree. Then, for the third time, I watched it on a regular screen. Comparing each version watched, IMAX took the top spot. But that first time watching it in regular 3D was truly memorable, and one of only a handful of moviegoing experiences I fondly remember. The theaters were packed each time, and I'm glad that it has been green lit for more sequels to come. I truly cannot wait to be transported back to the world of Pandora just as I were that first time twelve years ago. It'll feel as if I'll be watching it for the first time again, I'm sure. A true achievement given that even now in 2021 the effects look spotless. A very big thank you to everyone involved in the production of this epic, and especially to James Cameron's artistic vision.
AVATAR 2 THE WAY OF WATER COMING THIS YEAR
I love this movie, yeah the plots simple but I’m not there for that, the world building alone has kept me hocked for years. My friends hate when I put it on “the cgi is so out of date” yeah but.... I haven’t see anything better? Think of most movies with lots of cgi, it mostly look stupid. This, somehow avoided that even after aging so many years. It’s 2020 and this looks just as good as fucking last of us 2 that just came out. (No I don’t enjoy Lou2, not to say they didn’t do great on the look of it) Thats something I’ve never seen before and probably won’t unless James comes up with it himself again. If it be in the second movie or a totally new one 👌 hes definitely on another level
Yea finally avatar
I remember this is the only movie that came out that I went and saw multiple times in the theatres. I also bought the music on CD and still have it.
Can’t wait for the next one. Keep up the awesome job. Always enjoy watching ur content 👍
Would love for you to cover the umbrella academy
It’s on the to-do list!
