James Cameron: Yes, humans are literally colonizing your planet for resources, destroying your cultures, enslaving your peoples, but you cannot resist the wrong way. Yes, this is inspired by my understanding of indigenous populations on Earth and their colonizations, what about it?
That aid worker watering the tree of life? Believe it or not: hamas.
Actually the humans are indigenous to Pandora and calling them colonizers is bigotry
The N'avi should've tried to debate the humans in the marketplace of ideas
"We have a lot of anger and rage in the world we live in right now."
... and? Anything to say about the causes of that anger?
"The world is an angry place..."
I think I remember the red Na'vi are a comprador class or something, which would make them the worst of the Na'vi
I have hope that this is the case, since the first two movies portrayed violent resistance to colonialism as unambiguously correct.
Yeah so far Na'vi smoking sky people has been portrayed as entirely based, love to see a US marine get fucking ventilated with an arrow as thick as his arm.
Worried that they sort of implied redemption "he's not so bad after all" thing for the bad marine dude in the end of Avatar 2
I think the idea that he is literally living in a corporate hell wherein he gets resurrected in order to die repeatedly to improve margins would not be a bad way to have someone realize they should change sides, in theory. Depending on the execution it could be a neat way to depict someone realizing their own alienation and radicalizing. But I don't have high hopes for them pulling it off.
That is a cool idea though
The blue smurfs will go liberal politics and try to appease the humans or sue them or something, while the red smurfs still want to fight and the blue ones will be shown to be correct by their own logic. In the end, a settlement will be reached in which you can keep your tree so long as you can prove it was a business for five years and that it is in a disadvantaged area.
Concept art shows they are using humans guns arresting other Na'vi so highly likely they gonna be compradors
Wonder if there's gonna be a School of the Pandoras.
Here’s hoping 🤞
Do you condemn Ashmas?
"I can shoot your dog a hundred times but don't you dare ever think about getting angry or fighting back."
Make them like the Dunmer
Hopefully Aang and the gaang can help sort everything out.
