Honestly same, the movie just glosses over the fact that this dude was such a spiteful psycho that he tried to get someone killed just because he got his ego hurt, and he faced ZERO repercussions.
Is that thing starving? There's no way a large predator like that would waste THAT much energy trying to get at such a small meal, ESPECIALLY since it could have kept pursuing the other thing.
awesome movie in 3d. but when boat crashing to a reef physics look bad. they could take rc modell, film how it crashes and remake it in cgi. for that 20 years that passed 😂

@@tamnickyle I don't think I would call it lazy, definitely adds more layer on the relationship between Lo'ak and his Father. The 2nd film explicitly shows how Jake is very much disappointed with his 2nd Son due to his disobedience and risk taking attitude while being less capable and skilled than his older brother. What Jake probably doesn't realize is they are pretty much the same when he was a new comer at Hometree, both have a brave heart and Neytiri sees that between the 2 of them that's why she gave him a talk about giving the boys some slack with the boot camp treatment. It's nice to realize how Jake Sully is basically looking and interacting with a past version of himself (could be another theory on how Eywa or their collective consciousness operate to form a new soul by taking inspiration to those who connect with her). Overall Jake Sully's character progression on gradually accepting Lo'ak and being proud of him could also entail how he's beginning to heal from inside and starts forgiving his past self and accepting all the mistakes he did.
i never watched this movie but the reef looked like maybe it was built on a big skeleton with what looks like rib bones and a skull. still crazy, ain’t no way that thing is gonna waste energy and risk injury smashing it’s head into basically rocks for such a tiny caloric intake
@@DOMYPLAYLISTSOFFENDYOU yeah but they don't mash their heads into the coral towers, they graze on the soft flesh parts of the coral. they're also specialized to consume and digest coral, with evolved beaks, instead of being large predators with a far greater caloric requirement. they even have a waste system that accounts for incidentally eating sand and coral skeleton.
Did you know why and how is really recognizable is Akula have this name? In english language we can say shark, that is easly hearing it. But I recognize that name from Russian language, that you hearing be like - "Акула". Is there any difference, or did the director decide to choose this name for the monster?
That be so scary in real life... Like so scary you wouldn't send your kids to the ocean without having taught them it isn't a playground, but much of what the Navi do, is like playing.
Earth is super diverse too, we just killed alot of animals/plants that inconvenienced us, always know the wildlife, big or small, heck, people get in accidents getting scared by phobias (like mice)
Am I going crazy or is there something about the CGI for the Akula that just feels extremely off-putting and trippy? Isn't the CGI supposed to be what all the budget went into?
no fr i never watched this movie but i was sitting here going “this looks like Subnautica-level graphics” the entire time i watched the clip. which, that’s fine FOR A VIDEO GAME SUCH AS SUBNAUTICA, but not for a *bazillion-dollar movie shot in 3d IMAX completely on green-screen*
I think that might just be due to RU-vid’s Bit Rate and all Like seeing this scene in the big theatre or a tv was immaculate, cause it’s higher resolution. Whereas here, poor resolution makes the CGI look meh
@@maryray4960 I wasn’t paying attention to the story good enough to find anything else more interesting I went to the bathroom a few times and missed some of it
Love the akula's design, but nothing about its behavior is accurate to how an animal like that would act. Its anatomy would not allow for clear breaching of the surface, lightning fast bursts of speed, turning on a dime, and being remotely as active as it was. They would likely be much more sluggish and hunt prey by surprise rather than pursuit.
Such a cool design use for such a short span of time and even then for a bullshit callback to the first film but with a whale thrown in. At least the Thanator got to do something other than be used as a plot device
The animals in this movie are all over the place and don't make evolutionary sense. For example, all vertebrates on earth have four limbs because they came from common ancestors with four limbs. That doesn't seem to be the case here on Pandora. All animals here seem to have completely different ancestors.
Navis have four limbs because they have fused front limbs, going from four to two. The tree monkey thing from the first movie showed two pairs of arms fusing into one. I agree Navi design is lazy compared to the rest of the creatures, as they look like fusion of elves and beast-men from mythology. Wish they looked less like human.
@drill_fiend1097 Still doesn't explain why all wildlife on Pandora have four eyes and nose on their shoulders while Navi have two eyes and nose on their face.
@@notoriousbigmoai1125 the most likely explanation is that the extra eyes went away through not needing it. Honestly I think making Navi look like a human was a stylistic choice. There are a lot of better indie speculative evolution stories out there; but Hollywood is worried that aliens that look nothing like humans would be hard to "sympathize" with to general audience.
I hate how generic the creature designs are in these movies. Everything is just a modified version of some earth animal. It’s like a billion dollar Saturday morning cartoon.
is it just me or is the cgi isn't smoothed out around 30-36 second mark. Not sure why, but it doesn't seem to be. Like I know most of this movie is cgi, and its actually quite beautiful. But still that one spot where he shoots the crossbow, and the akula is chomping away at the coral/reef
Had the same feeling in theater. I guess the CGI are as good in that scene as the whole movie. It might be due to the watery light and the fish movement. Things tend to look sometimes weird underneath the sea.
The CGI for this whole scene looks off. It doesn't look like the creature is properly textured and lit, maybe the shutter angle is just higher s well? It very much looks like a video game. But the rest of the movie is beautiful.
The soundtrack of this movie is not as good as the first Avatar. James Horner and team did a fantastic job on the first one. Unfortunately Simon Franglen and team couldn't replicate the first one's soundtrack. Hopefully they improve in Avatar 3, that being said the sound design in this movie is top notch.
@@marleydarch-devereaux9712 The spelling of the word is Russian. The etymology of the word is Icelandic. But this Russian word is written in Latin letters.
