Avatar 2 and 3
After seeing the movie at the theatre with the whole family we hired the dvd when it came out and then bought a copy when that became available. After watching the dvd about twenty times I decided to see if there was a director's cut out there, there was more than that - the re-release version, the theatre version, an alernate introduction and unfinished scenes were to be found on a collectors edition. Bought it immediately! Have seen that probably eight or ten times already. Now I await the next in the series with great anticipation. If I were to script the next film I would begin at the end of the first with Jake communing with Eywe before he awakens as one of the people. She would take the form of Grace, perhaps in the company of others that died in the battle, and warn him that the humans would return, sending him on a quest to unite the world against the coming threat. This could be where the oceans become a scene of crossover, perhaps the world is separated into two dfferent entities, Eywa on the land and a different and separate entity in the seas. After joining the two entities, and their separate biospheres, combined with the new knowledge acquired from Grace, a biological space armada might be assembles against an attack on the entire biosphere in the third installment... Just a thought...

Avatar 2
From what we know about Avatar 2 we know it will envolve in some way the oceans on pandora but this does not mean that it will be an underwater film as a whole We know filming has been delayed by the earthquake activity and we know James Cameron is developing a Sub to film in one of deapest locations on earth and that film taken from the depths will in some way be used in the film and that many of the actors in the first film will return,

Where Are the Na'vi From?
From the imagination of James Cameron. He made them look like humans, laugh like humans, etc, so we could relate to them and so human actors could portray them. But looking at them from inside the universe of Avatar, at least some humans would have noticed:
On a world where land vertebrates have six limbs and breath mostly through vents in their chests, the Na'vi have only four limbs and breath mostly through their noses.
The Na'vi smile. This is something unique to humans on Earth; none of the other living primates actually smile (Chimpanzees who look like they're smiling are probably showing their teeth in a threat display!)
The Avatar program succeeded, at least on a technical level. Why was it possible to make viable hybrids mixing human and alien DNA? FERTILE hybrids (made clear from one of the cut scenes.)
All this could lead up to, say, the discovery that the Na'vi themselves were genetically engineered a long time ago from Earth-humans to a form that could thrive on Pandora.

Avatar is Dances with wolves with giant blue people instead of American Indians.
Main character Jake bumps into & falls in love with an English speaking blue indigenous female
Main character Kevin Costner bumps into & falls in love with English speaking squaw
Both characters have a moral dilemma & side with there supposed enemies, after deciding their original intentions were misguided.
In the end both characters decide to stay with their Indigenous peoples and live their way of life

Avatar Moments
What were some of your most memorable moments in Avatar. The movie its self was a memorable moment. But some parts i would like to talk about tho. Like the part where he is learning the way of Omaticaya people, learning how they bond with Eywa and the creatures. Another moment is when he is climbing up the Hallelujah Mountains and has to bond with a banshee or the Na'vi name of them ikran, and after he bonds with them he goes and fly's with Neytiri and the others, that moment is one of the most beautiful moments in the movie. Another moment which is not so good is when home tree was being destroyed... That moment made me so sad and so angry at the same time. To see home tree was destroyed... I felt almost the exact same way as the Omaticaya people felt. Another moment is when they are singing by the Sacred tree of Eywa, when they sing it was so beautiful to here that, that i closed my eyes and felt like i was there. One of the greatest moments is when he gets all the clans of Pandora to help fight with him. An yet but not least is the moment where Jake Sully becomes One of the People at the end and Becomes a Na'va for real. Well thats all the moments i can say for now. But i want to know what everyone Else's moments were in the movie. So speak out.... For the Na'vi and for Eywa!!!!!

What will Jake and Neytiri name their children?
This thought just recently crossed my mind. When Jake and Neytiri have a child, shouldn't its name have a great significance in the story? I've been thinking, if they have a son, he could possibly be named after Jake's brother, Tommy. If they have a daughter, they might name her after Neytiri's sister, Sylwanin. Both of them were gunned down in cold blood. I would like to think that Jake and Neytiri would name their children after their own siblings in honor of their memories. Of course, this is just a theory. Does anyone else have any ideas?

Avatar won't be your ordinary trilogy
Previous trilogies like Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, and The Matrix were similar by maintaining the same cast of main characters. However with Avatar, this will not be the case. By the end of the film, most of the main characters were dead. Besides Jake and Neytiri, the only other surviving characters with a significant role were Norm (whose Avatar died) and Mo'at. This will lead to an interesting follow-up story. First of all, this is a lot more realistic because in real-life you can't expect all the heroes to survive. Second, this will make the sequels much more surprising and unpredictable. And finally, the drama will be escalated to greater heights. I'll be greatly anticipating Avatar 2, although I know it will be a long wait. I also know Avatar 2 has great potential for topping the first movie because many people will be anxious to know what happens next. Of course, this is also the reason why so many of us are posting all these blogs.

Movie idea!
okay, I read that the maker of Avatar, wants to make it a trilogy! But, he needs ideas. Then it hit me!
Jake Sully was a human, turned into the Na'vi to help save the one he loves. Well, what if the humans came back, wanting to buy or ask for land to learn how to live there? And what if half of the tribes say yes, but half don't? What will happen? Think about it! The tribes raging wars while Jake is trying to make peace with Naytiri by his side!

This is our land!
Only four words. But that can be enough to restore hope to a grief-stricken tribe and jumpstart a massive revolution. Many leaders have inspired their people with words like these. But to hear them come from a foreigner-gone-native? This just comes to show you how committed Jake was to his newly adopted tribe. Who else felt a surge of overwhelming inspiration after hearing Jake's speech? Did it also make you think about the occurrences and non-occurrences of our own world? What if all the Native American tribes had chosen to settle their differences and join together to save their land? How different would our world be today? We can all absorb this message of unison and peace as a step toward a brighter tomorrow and a world more reminiscent of Pandora.

Will the Na'vi have enemies or allies in their neighboring worlds?
James Cameron has confirmed that Avatar will become a trilogy. In the sequels we will be shown at least a glimpse of the life on the other moons and the planet Polyphemus. But what kind of alien species should we expect? Peaceful or hostile? The Avatar movie never mentioned any previous visitors before the humans arrived. However, this possibility was never denied either. Besides, Neytiri mentioned to Jake that Toruk had been tamed five times in the past. This means there had already been five Times of Great Sorrow when all the Na'vi clans joined together. Who were they fighting?
These are the questions that should be answered in the sequels.

Were Norm and Trudy secretly in love?
Although the love theme of Avatar revolved directly around Jake and Neytiri, there may have also been another much lower-profile romance going on between some of the other main characters. I took a look at the complete Avatar script by James Cameron online. It includes deleted scenes and a few edited lines. For instance, in the scene when Trudy frees Jake, Grace, and Norm, she plants a kiss on Norm as he runs out of the cell. Then Norm tells her "Baby, you rock." Also, in the original script for the epic battle, Trudy sacrifices herself by making a kamikaze run at Quaritch's warship to prevent it from reaching the Tree of Souls. As Norm watches from the jungle below, he shouts "No!" Trudy's last words before the collision are "Norm, I love you." I know this story may not seem that important but it may still be something of interest to those who want to explore more in depth of the other characters.

What The Hell Are You Doing Jake?
This gave me plenty of headaches mulling over what he actually meant, and I'd like to know how you guys interpreted Jake's words here, right after he 'mated' with Neytiri.
I think he was in a state of "This can't be real. This can't be real." but why does he sound regretful, or does he?

The game
After watching the movie I just wanted to live myself more into the world of Pandora. So after a day or two I brought the game but didn't find it very good. It do have some of the Epic'ness like the movie but the gameplay and grafichs sucks! I really would hope they made a good game out of this. Maybe a roleplaying game where you could level up you char. and become better and better at things like: riding those dragons/birds (sorry forgot what were called), hunt, communicate with Eywa and use the nature as a weapon/tool.
There should be some parkour element to the game too, where you became better and better at getting around in the jungle fast.
About the story it maybee could be: The humans have returned, for the crystal, and and you have to defend the Na'vi and their sacred trees ect. ect. Bosses could be like a big walker (like that one in the end of the movie).
Of cause the grafics would have too be some of the best ever, maybee even 3D? That option would bring alot of fun and options into the game if possible... :D
What do you guys think?

The International Reception
I thought it would be interesting to discuss the international reception of the film, especially if some participants in this forum have seen it in a foreign language. I've now seen the movie three times in English, and once in German during a visit over Christmas to Austria, and since in Europe movies in a foreign language are usually dubbed, rather than sub-titled, one hears European actors speaking a translated version of the original. A number of subtleties were thereby lost. For example, Jake's statement "Let's dance," which he makes before he attempts Tsahaylu with the Ikran, became the equivalent of "Shall we?" or "Let's go!", and his exclamation to Tsu'tey, "I knew you could speak English!", was rendered the equivalent of "Hey, great!" or something equally inocuous. The point is that, all in all, the film in German has a different flavor than in the original, and some of the subtleties of the characters' personalities are lost. What's more, as is often the case with dubbing, the voices are more pronounced and rougher, deeper, and more classically theatrical, which mitigates the film's immediacy.
I wonder if such details will influence the international reception of the film and would be interested in learning others' thoughts and experiences.

Hey guys.....
Avatar! What a great movie! I really liked it very much. Nothing like it ever! The special effects were great! An oppressing force tries to conquer a culture that they are not familiar with. The oppressors send one of their own to scout and organize ways to conquer. But alas, this person has morals, scruples, tries to get to know these strange people and eventually becomes a member of the tribe. He falls in love with a member of what is now his people, and fights against his own kind. In the end, their love prevails and they stay together.
What a simple, but appealing plot… ah, the same as DANCES WITH WOLVES, which, by the way, is Up 113% in popularity this week according to Holiday Movie Guide. Dances with Wolves won best picture in 1990, and Avatar should win best picture also. I LIKED THE MOVIE!!
I am probably a bit older, and I like westerns…but I liked Avatar also.
