  • After a while, people started acting as if no one actually liked this movie and they were in for a shock when the sequel made over a billion again.
  • @gaiusx287
    Even 14 years later, I still find this movie visually breathtaking!
  • @hallyhop
    As a disabled woman, the fact that you said “oh he uses a wheelchair, interesting” instead of saying something like, “oh he’s wheelchair bound, that’s really sad” is sooo so good. I don’t know how else to put that, but thank you. Just the subtle difference in language makes all the difference in respect and inclusion.
  • @bethlila3258
    "Ewya has heard you!" That line never fails to give me literal goose bumps and tears!
  • @neil2444
    5:40 "She doesn't seem that bothered by him breaking the rules." You'll notice she's a great deal happier in her avatar body throughout the film. I think that's meant to be deliberate. She feels how Jake feels by the end. The avatar is the true body and the human body becomes the crutch they have to return to.
  • Watching the sequel in theatres was 3 hours of pure beautiful visual spectacle, absolutely gorgeous and genuinely an enjoyable story.
  • @Inariann
    Saw the original in 3D and it was the most beautiful 3D movie I've ever seen. They didn't use 3D as a gimmick. I can still feel the feeling of having all the ashes falling around me. Even so many years later.
  • tsu’tey, the one that seemed to not like jake because he was jealous of neytiri, has a little bit more to his backstory. He is betrothed to neytiri, yes, but he was betrothed to her older sister who died from being shot by humans, thats why grace’s school was shut down and the avatars were prohibited at the village. they were truly in love, so the resentiment tsu’tey feels towards jake is probably mostly because of what his race did rather than because of his advances towards neytiri, which he doesnt like but also accepts in a short period of time. he even chooses jake as his successor later in a deleted scene! they grow to respect each other before tsu’tey dies and gets reunited with silwanin in eywa

    It's been 14 years and this movie is still a visual masterpiece
  • @valguccino
    I always like to highlight Zoe Saldaña's acting, like GOD. She delivered SO WELL! The whole vfx take so much of the acting away, but watching the behind the scenes realy makes u see all these actors' talent.
  • @rauldiaz6816
    She made a successful you tube career by being out the loop on all the hit shows and movies . Plus she’s genuinely interesting lol . Love this channel
  • People just dont understand....to say this movie was groundbreaking when it came to visuals and the 3d experience was absolutely MASSIVE!!! This was the first 3D movie my whole family saw, I had seen it with friends before I took them so I literally spent the WHOLE movie just watching them react to the 3D moments. To this day it remains my mothers favorite movie period, and having just taken her to see Way of Water your reaction came out at just the right time! Glad you enjoyed it Natalie, keep the reactions coming!
  • @MizuMing
    Honestly I think the graphics still hold up. Many of the practices used in making the movie are now used in video games and other movies, so they were pioneers well out of their time.
  • @notsyntiq
    I just think that people don't want to ENJOY things anymore. And it's so comforting to see someone just have a great time living themselves in a film ✨❤️
  • @64dolph72
    I like how she accurately predicted everything that happened in the movie 😂
  • The extended version of this movie has a lot more detail into the history of the people that were there already. Like graces school and the history of the navi people. You should definitely try to watch it if you can!!
  • Nominated for 9 Oscars including Best Picture but won for: Best Production Design Best Visual Effects Best Cinematography. It's the highest grossing movie of all time, $2.9 billion dollars! AVATAR 2: THE WAY OF WATER has made $1.5 billion dollars today!
  • @LeonardoKlotz
    Is amazing how much James Cameron had accomplished without even going to film school
  • @internaut4257
    Its unbelievable this movie came out in 2009, it still holds up today visualy, no wonder it won so many awards and made so much money, im going to watch the 2nd one soon.
  • @ZblockWoW
    There is nothing better than watching someone experience one of my favorite movies for the first time. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
