Glad I waited lol. Haven't seen this yet. Wasn't sure how interested I was but since you reacted to it I'll give it a try.

I saw this in 4D. It was amazing. If you ever get the chance, see this movie in 4D

I can’t afford a suggestion donation, but you would absolutely LOVE The Man From Earth. It’s truly a unique movie in that the whole thing takes place in one room and right outside of it, and that there’s no actual plot to speak of, instead the entire movie consists of one conversation. One incredibly intellectually stimulating conversation.

Took me long enough to get to this, but here goes. Yes, you should've seen the first movie as a refresher. The very last scene in the previous movie was Jake Sully having his consciousness permanently moved from his human body into his Avatar. The people are still safe, they most likely abandoned the fortress but even if they didn't the Earth forces have no idea where it is specifically and they can't systematically search for it because ten minutes in and everything in that general vicinity comes and kills them, and Spider didn't give them up. I took the flying/fleeing scene to be a montage indicating possibly several days of travel, just editing out the boring rest-stops. The Reef People are just as much Na'vi as the Forest people, unlike the Amerindian-coded Forest people the Reef people are more Polynesian/Mao'ri coded. There are techniques one can use, including but not limited to meditation, to increase one's ability to hold their breath. They're often used in snorkeling and free-diving. "It eclipses every single day?" Remember, Pandora isn't a planet, it's a moon. A moon of a gas-giant. The tree isn't Ae'wa, Ae'wa is integrated into the whole moon, the special trees are just the bits of Ae'wa that are on the outside. The scene with Quarritch's interrogations at the first sea people village he finds is meant to call to mind American attempts at rooting out Viet Cong insurgents during the Vietnam War, right down to calling there housing 'hooches'. A bit dated given there are Much more recent examples of American Imperialist militarism to allegorize now. Back in the 60's and continuing through the 80's there was a big deal among fringe spiritualists or 'Hippies' that believed Whales were as sapient if not more sapient than humans, and this was reflected in a lot of media at the time. The Tu'kuun, the space-whales, are intended to emulate this idealization of whales rather than the actual wild animals. Word is that James Cameron wrote some short stories that these movies would be based on back when he was in high-school, which kinda shows. Of course the bad guys would be whalers. Explosive-tipped harpoons have been standard weapons for whalers for over half a century, Earth whalers don't have homing harpoons tho. The whaling ship is rather interesting. Looks like it functions as a displacement-hull boat, a hydrofoil, and an ekranoplan. And of course, the absolutely necessary Apocalypse Now shot. "What is re-slamming the door?" Water isn't just slowly filling in all-around, it's rushing in from from the direction she's trying to open the door into. "If he wasn't there when they learned the sign-language, how did he instantly know?" He wasn't using the sea-people sign-language, he was using the military hand-signals Jake taught them. 'Get Eyes On' i.e. go look for them. And just as with the previous movie, ending shot is closing-in on Jake Sully's face and go to black just after he opens his eyes.
