Rick Moranis says "Oel ngati kameie" in the movie btw, and it's maybe the funniest bit I've seen all year.

Avatar cultural impact denies in shambles!

It's working...

I wrote 6,000 words on AVATAR for @BWDR, diving into how James Cameron's stereoscopic dreamland is a conduit for a radical, transportive empathy that harkens back to the origins of cinema itself:

@RyanJL Even crazier is I saw this version… thought nothing of it at the time but the domino effect this casting choice had is wild

GOD I love Avatar. GOD I love Pandora. GOD I love banshees (ikran) and making tsaheylu and the hallelujah mountains and Toruk Makto. GOD I love Jake Sully and Neytiri and Kiri and Colonel Miles Quaritch (deceased) and Spider and Tuk and Lo'ak and Tsireya and Tonowari and

Cousin, who barely goes to the movies atm because she just had a baby, name dropped Varang at Christmas dinner. Yet another huge loss for the Avatar cultural impact deniers.

How it feels to be the only film bro that loves Avatar and recognizes its genius:

[Mr. Chau @Srirachachau]

No other franchise has a woman like Varang…worth considering

Stephen Lang 🩵

"I left the man club some years ago," he begins. "My sons are beautiful guys, and my daughters are extremely amazing humans, as is my wife. I have no interest in promoting some idea of masculinity that is either aggressive or more important than anyone else. I play it. I love playing it. I enjoy it. But I, I don't want to ever be thought of as some lunkhead male who's promoting some form of alpha masculinity 'cause that's not who I am and not what I want to do."

Avatar: Fire And Ash in IMAX 3D?

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

To call ‘AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH’ the exact same movie as before is an overexaggeration. At that point, you’re refusing to engage with the film’s story.

Part of the beauty of the “Avatar” films is that they are the cleanest straightest-down-the-middle blockbuster filmmaking that you could ask for, but are also about how maybe the human race should go extinct.

[Mattie, the Woman Clothed by the Sun @cinemattie]

I genuinely believe people who do not like the AVATAR movies do not have love in their hearts.

[Mr. Chau @Srirachachau]

Really is so sick that Cameron gave us the sexy evil version of Jake and Neytiri. He knows what the people want and need

I watched “Avatar: Fire and Ash” in 3D IMAX. People often say, “God is in the details,” but truly seeing that philosophy carried through in the act of creation is not an easy thing to do. This film shows absolutely no compromise, right down to the finest details, in the construction of the Avatar “universe.” It was magnificent.
For the past 40 years, I’ve been weaving entertainment and art alongside the evolution of cutting-edge digital technology. I’m a creator on the “digital side.” DEATH STRANDING was also shot and produced using technologies developed for Avatar.
Lately, films shot entirely in analog, without CG or VFX, have been increasingly praised. Even movies shot on film are celebrated, while digital works are sometimes dismissed with comments like, “Anyone can make it easily if it’s digital.” But that is a serious misunderstanding. CG works are also created by people. Countless actors, artists, and programmers pour their thoughts and passion into them, breathing life into the work.
Today, this film gave me renewed “pride” and “courage” as we look toward the future. It made me feel positive again about continuing to pursue “new things” using digital technology. Thank you, James Cameron. And I was also happy to see Kevin Dorman on the screen. He did so many performances for us on the set of DEATH STRANDING too. 🙏🙇🏻🫶😍

Still thinking about her

[Sara Clements @mildredsfierce2]

Obsessed with everything Oona Chaplin is doing in AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH. She commands the screen & sets it ablaze with fury. Her Varang moves with a mighty understanding of her power & sexuality & has such a dominating presence. I hope she has a role in the rest of the franchise.

[SIVAKO: The Avatar Podcast @AvatarPod]

@CarlosAlonzoM I just spent the whole movie waiting for more Varang. Truly a captivating character like we have never seen in blockbuster cinema before
