@arto_miss@jinxeatswasps -i think neteyam doesnt haunt the narrative at all when he should. its like, how can we as the audience grieve neteyam if hes not even mentioned. for example, many scenes could’ve shown arguments with all the sullies ABOUT neteyam, and had the scene going for long with real depth
@arto_miss@jinxeatswasps idk it felt generic to me and lacked depth. we all knew lo’ak would feel guilt but the rest are vaguely touched on. nor kiri, tuk, spider and all from neytiri&jake is not rlly in depth. like ofc they are upset, cry, isolate. but even jake blaming lo’ak is vague and-
@heartsofcinder he exists for a reason but personally i js dislike the reason he exists😭 hes there to bridge the gap for human & na’vi harmony in the end and although i get it, i just prefer avatar centred around na’vi not the harmony trope
@At0kirin4 -still pushing this humans & na’vi harmony bs narrative. i can alr predict the franchises ending to be the rda & sully’s embrace each other while neteyam’s dead. no ones rage for his murder is done in the film at all its so badddd
@At0kirin4 i DESPISE the writing in afaa because of that. like the films SUPPOSED to be abt grief, yet no ones actually angry with the rda that their son/sibling was MURDERED😭 like if neteyam had died from falling or sum okay, but he was literally murdered in broad daylight and they’re-
@glowingnavi@beriberiii1 yes! I would’ve preferred if lo’ak died &we saw neteyam’s guilt. wish neytiris rage scene was neteyam’s ngl. w/ the mangkwan, i wish we saw the perfect son getting tricked by the allure the mangkwan have like how quaritch did. more interesting than the whole rda vs jake story imo
@ThirdHairBead i think abt how bad the writing is in terms of his death daily cuz even in afaa ending, neteyam has never seen kiri in the spirit realm and theres NO INTERACTION, its all abt spider. also 0 depth in any1 after his death. so many scenes couldve incorporated his lack of presence
@aonuneteceo i could be wrong but i think in aonunete, neteyam is often characterised as a quiet dominant too? like aonung is the taller, loud one but ultimately neteyams word is final. though i think neteyams also characterised as with hints of vulnerability too
@sofysoup they fr couldve at least killed in av3 to allow some character development or some small arc around him. the writings so ass they shouldve pretended like neteyam would live, giving him an arc and THEN kill him so shock every1
@ThirdHairBead forest na’vi being flexible is soo hot im writing a fic w neteyam & a mangkwan and i added sum like that in cuz its so much sexier than anything sexual imo 🧘🏻♀️
