i was rooting for humans the entire time. i was so happy to see these blue Black person charlies ger napalmed. if you are not rooting for humans you are a cuck and frick animals
because most /misc/ newbies turned out to be chicanos, although you could also be indian as well because Elon Musk just gave them internet or whatever.
>NOOOO I WAS JUST DOIN' MY JOB YOU CAN'T LE HECKIN' DO THIS TO ME!
take some personal responsibility for once in your life. your choices are yours alone at the end, no matter the circumstances you're in
the tree is a sentient biological robot designed to keep the navi in a state of a nature of harmony. Basically the Navi were once super advanced aliens but they went "return to monke" so that they could sustainably live in prosperity until the end of their solar system. Just endless millions of years of hunting with the boys, banging your wife at night, and participating in group cultural events.
So the tree wouldn't like you tunneling under it. The next Avatar after 2 is subtitled The Seed Bearer because Eywa retaliates against the humans by sending a seed that basically bio-terraforms the Earth
the main objective in the first movie was just not pissing off the cat people and create a PR disaster (explicitly said so, idk why they'd broadcast it), they didn't really care about root mama. The mineral is absorbed for that purpose but the stuff under the tree was clearly mostly ore, not part of the tree (yet anyways). No flaming cat people home, not dead cat chilluns etc. PR disaster averted.
Short answer is that it's way harder. They wanted a big mine to get the stuff as efficiently as possible, not a little "I drink your milkshake" pipe. Remember that you have to get all the equipment and vehicles there too.
the smurfs are parasitic monsters that take control of nervous systems of all creatures and life. they are literal abominations that should be destroyed. getting some insane metal from the ashes of their evil corpses is just icing on the cake. the entire planet should thank humanity for killing these fricking freaks.
You can’t watch follow the story and genuinely think that. The Na’vi enjoy a harmony and a symbiosis with their environment that we can only dream of. When they take to the sky on a banshee, they’re not just riding the thing, they’re experiencing flight as only a flying creature can. Would you trade that for lite beer and blue jeans? I wouldn’t.
When Mo’at tells Jake that they will teach him their ways and see if his insanity can be cured, she’s being serious. They look on us and our culture as insane. I like how Douglas Addams put it:
>”For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
Like its clear what's gonna happen to the Na'vi if humans get their way. If they don't completely go extinct their population will get reduced by like 99+ percent in multiple stages of genocide and forced displacement and the remainder will just be kept on rumpy little shit miserable reservations at best. You can't even just try and be edgy and double down on might makes right thinking seeing as they literally fought it out and won militarily.
Still their military failing-a morale failing. Could have run their society in a way that didn't completely alienate people they depended on. Just off the top of my head give him his fricking legs back before the expedition. Or just give people their legs back free in general so you get actually motivated true believers volunteering for expeditions like this.
The Na'vi didn't have that problem because they didn't internally mistreat or deprive each other like that
Excellent point. To me, that’s the big distinction between the “human empire” in Avatar and the “fascist” humans in Starship Troopers. In Avatar, you’re a cog, a puppet of corporate interests. In Starship Troopers, you’re treated like pure gold for choosing government service. It shouldn’t come as a surprise which society produces more motivated soldiers.
One of two ways. He was either a human “avatar” the entire time(think about it - they’d have to have perfected the tech before going through the trouble of growing expensive human/Na’vi hybrids, so why not test it on grunts? The added bonus is they get to be truly fearless), or they corporate sharks figured out that Pandora’s neural network saves backups of anything that dies there, and they figured out a way to download Quaritch’s consciousness.
Cameron has said that it's unpredictable. And I believe him that it's not just going to be the usual "natives win, humans suck" schlock. I think the humans will even win in this next movie. The last movie is called "The Quest for Eywa", so I'm almost thinking that Eywa may branch out to other planets even. She could send out spores to colonize other worlds. And maybe she creates Unobtainium, it does seem to be concentrated at her most sensitive spots, so humans will want to inhabit those planets too
one thing i never understood about the message of this movie, is that you should betray your entire *species* for the actions of a specific group. i mean, betraying your race is one thing but the entire species?
The reason the humans were in the wrong was because they were obviously going to turn Pandora into an ecological shithole just like they did with Earth
Lady i'm just fighting fate, just like you are as evidence by the trunk currently buried in my chest. Why are you giving up? Entropy will get you. It doesn't have to be this way. Somehow there must be a way to escape this mortal coil, join us, are you not warriors? Our people have a common enemy. The natural worlds demands the death of all life. This universe is a sparing companion, a trial, a sister not a mother. We dream of better, of escape and of life triumphant. Fight with us, share your ore and meld your courage with ours. Don't lay down and die like you're doing. You survive day by day against nature already, survive further. Stop it! You're fighting on your enemy's side. You and us you blue fricks, we'll be your white fricks and together we'll shove our collecting forearm up fate's ass.
The greatest men do
The greatest women also do
Who do they trigger Cinemaphile so much?
#dirlewangerGANGGG
GOTTA RAPE FAST
Movie never said otherwise. A fun villain.
Gold star for him
literally who
watch movies you fricking pleb. get the frick off my board.
Ted Beneke from breaking bad
Jorgen Von Strangle
Rogal Dorn
Ringo from Tombstone
Actually Ike from tombstone
Not
>Rango from Tombstone
Why even bother?
i was rooting for humans the entire time. i was so happy to see these blue Black person charlies ger napalmed. if you are not rooting for humans you are a cuck and frick animals
>if you are not rooting for humans you are a cuck and frick animals
based and true
>it's a "Cinemaphile pretends the generic military guy from avatar is a deep and memorable villain" episode
Do a better job, shills.
He's the only memeorable performance I the entire movie
Thats actually true but i'm not sure why. Each character in this movie was an extremely distilled stereotype. There is no reason for him to stand out.
Deep, no. Memorable, yes. I like the movie and I enjoy his character.
>why cant I just stop sucking wiener? How can this be happening to me? Frick i love sucking humongous wieners! wiener! wiener! wiener!
Yeah I love men, what about it chud?
I love you too anon.
Frick you anon, i only drill shitskins
good, giving someone AIDS isn't loving them
>it's a "Cinemaphile pretends the generic military guy from avatar is a deep and memorable villain" episode
He's one of the best parts of the movie.
Villain? Tubi-chads know that Quaritch was the hero.
how does it feel to betray your own race?
I'm not white, and neither are you. Stop larping as goosestepping homosexuals.
why do mexicans want everyone in the world to be non-white? some kind of insecurity?
why do homosexuals wildly guess at someone's race on here and get it completely wrong?
because most /misc/ newbies turned out to be chicanos, although you could also be indian as well because Elon Musk just gave them internet or whatever.
their shitty food makes them prone to mood swings
>villain
>"How does it feel to betray your own race?"
>Race traitor hisses at him
Guess which one you are?
All my homies love Quaritch
If he was doing his job he would have blasted all the blue apes from orbit with kinetic impactors or some shit
Unironically the best character in the entire movie
>NOOOO I WAS JUST DOIN' MY JOB YOU CAN'T LE HECKIN' DO THIS TO ME!
take some personal responsibility for once in your life. your choices are yours alone at the end, no matter the circumstances you're in
>YOU DIDN'T GIVE A POOR WOMAN(DEAMON) AN EXTENSION ON A LOAN SO YOU MUST GO TO HELL NOW
lmao what was this movie even
lol
Quaritch would be insulted by this defense.
He loved his job. He was horny for killing navis.
Drinking coffee and blowing up space cats ain't much but it's honest work.
why not just tunnel under the tree
the tree is a sentient biological robot designed to keep the navi in a state of a nature of harmony. Basically the Navi were once super advanced aliens but they went "return to monke" so that they could sustainably live in prosperity until the end of their solar system. Just endless millions of years of hunting with the boys, banging your wife at night, and participating in group cultural events.
So the tree wouldn't like you tunneling under it. The next Avatar after 2 is subtitled The Seed Bearer because Eywa retaliates against the humans by sending a seed that basically bio-terraforms the Earth
the main objective in the first movie was just not pissing off the cat people and create a PR disaster (explicitly said so, idk why they'd broadcast it), they didn't really care about root mama. The mineral is absorbed for that purpose but the stuff under the tree was clearly mostly ore, not part of the tree (yet anyways). No flaming cat people home, not dead cat chilluns etc. PR disaster averted.
What the frick are you talking about
Short answer is that it's way harder. They wanted a big mine to get the stuff as efficiently as possible, not a little "I drink your milkshake" pipe. Remember that you have to get all the equipment and vehicles there too.
And there’s nothing wrong with enjoying your job. He was a lucky man. He died doing what he loved, and what he loved was killing abos by the hundreds.
>Muh indigenous blue frog people
he did nothing wrong
the smurfs are parasitic monsters that take control of nervous systems of all creatures and life. they are literal abominations that should be destroyed. getting some insane metal from the ashes of their evil corpses is just icing on the cake. the entire planet should thank humanity for killing these fricking freaks.
>nooo we have to live in an industrial society instead and be enslaved to capitalists!
I liked Sully’s line about:
>There’s not going to be any deal. What do they think we have to offer that they want - lite beer and blue jeans?
Makes them sound like dumb animals that can't aspire to anything more than basic survival
You can’t watch follow the story and genuinely think that. The Na’vi enjoy a harmony and a symbiosis with their environment that we can only dream of. When they take to the sky on a banshee, they’re not just riding the thing, they’re experiencing flight as only a flying creature can. Would you trade that for lite beer and blue jeans? I wouldn’t.

he was doing his duty, the others were also doing their duty and the strongest won
His job was ethnic cleansing is the thing.
Like its clear what's gonna happen to the Na'vi if humans get their way. If they don't completely go extinct their population will get reduced by like 99+ percent in multiple stages of genocide and forced displacement and the remainder will just be kept on rumpy little shit miserable reservations at best. You can't even just try and be edgy and double down on might makes right thinking seeing as they literally fought it out and won militarily.
>they literally fought it out and won militarily.
They were betrayed by bleeding hearts in their own ranks. Reminds me of something.
>might makes right
>but there's rules tho
Still their military failing-a morale failing. Could have run their society in a way that didn't completely alienate people they depended on. Just off the top of my head give him his fricking legs back before the expedition. Or just give people their legs back free in general so you get actually motivated true believers volunteering for expeditions like this.
The Na'vi didn't have that problem because they didn't internally mistreat or deprive each other like that
Neytiri betrayed the guy she was supposed to marry and frick
You think without Jake the planetary consciousness wouldn't have awakened to defend itself?
Excellent point. To me, that’s the big distinction between the “human empire” in Avatar and the “fascist” humans in Starship Troopers. In Avatar, you’re a cog, a puppet of corporate interests. In Starship Troopers, you’re treated like pure gold for choosing government service. It shouldn’t come as a surprise which society produces more motivated soldiers.
I like his big ass knife
That shit was fricking rad.
This shit was based on a manga wasnt it? Only nips could conceit something so silly
Well to be fair, it’s actually a big-ass bayonet for a big-ass gun. Does that help?
Realistically how sharp would a knife that large be, without breaking would it just be like an axe?
Sword of The Berserk sharp I reckon.
Some one post the warhammer excerpt edit
The entire point of the Navi is that they owned nothing and were happy, you dumb chud
luled
That's the fun part of Avatar. You can like either side really. But Quaritch is super based. He didn't ever hesitate to start blasting.
And he's back for the sequel too
God, I can’t fricking wait.
Are these playing in different regions?
That’s all I can figure. It doesn’t seem to be chain-related.
You know who else was just following orders? Hitler!
Kek

He's gonna be one of the best parts of Avatar 2
That's supposed to be him? How?...
He’s got a mask, so apparently the Na’vi can breathe our air with a little kick from time to time.
How are the humans and aliens breathing the same air?
Quaritch is an Avatar. So apparently they made the body so it could do both.
Why bother having humans at all? Just make these magical everything clones.
You're gonna have to watch to find out
check'em
Nice.
What the frick is that thing?
I'm hoping the series ends with humans establishing a colony on pandora so its ambiguous
Cameron has said that it's unpredictable. And I believe him that it's not just going to be the usual "natives win, humans suck" schlock. I think the humans will even win in this next movie. The last movie is called "The Quest for Eywa", so I'm almost thinking that Eywa may branch out to other planets even. She could send out spores to colonize other worlds. And maybe she creates Unobtainium, it does seem to be concentrated at her most sensitive spots, so humans will want to inhabit those planets too
Quaritch is definitely gonna frick some shit up. He's out for revenge against jake sully.
I hope he gets the kino scar back.
>Where's Jake Sully?! I got a bone to pick with him and his little girl
Holy frick his body is absurd
one thing i never understood about the message of this movie, is that you should betray your entire *species* for the actions of a specific group. i mean, betraying your race is one thing but the entire species?
>"How does it feel to betray your own race?"
>*Praises the Golden Demise*
The reason the humans were in the wrong was because they were obviously going to turn Pandora into an ecological shithole just like they did with Earth
how come this guy wasnt black?
There were plenty of human black actors. And many of the Na'vi were played by black actors.
That's Quaritch and his avatar bros, plus the new commander in an exoskeleton
>he was just do-ACK
he was reaching for the stars
trying to obtain the unobtainable
a true hero, fighting for a good cause
No he would influence decisions & rush negotiations to get straight to the bloodshed
there's a lot of ass in the movie
The guy with robostitlts face looks CGI'd on
Not that anyone cares, but I've never seen Avatar because the whole movie was spoiled by other media, so I didn't feel like I needed to.
If you haven’t seen it in 3D, you’re missing out. I mean that sincerely. It’s basically the only movie where it’s not just a gimmick.
I remember people in South Korea were committing suicide over it, so I believe you, but hey you can't miss something you never had, right?
Did Cameron ever acknowledge that most people were rooting for the humans and not the aliens? Why would I betray my species?
he justified invasion and destroying a peaceful word for minerals because he thought his machines were cooler than trees
captcha: VRSTD
why do chuds love this character so much?
they always wanted to be a commander leading a big army gunning down tree hugging savages but never will?
Lady i'm just fighting fate, just like you are as evidence by the trunk currently buried in my chest. Why are you giving up? Entropy will get you. It doesn't have to be this way.
