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 😂
@@koil3s 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.
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.
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)
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
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 sny difference, or did the director decide to choose this name for the monster?
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 RUclips’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
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.
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
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.
@@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.
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.
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.

I think this scene mirrors the time when Jake Sully was getting chased by that angry thanator on Avatar 1.
It does pretty hard
the entire movie mirrors the first film's story arc, but its just underwater. pretty lazily done

Dunkelosteus
oh hey
@@beegamer1394 Hey:))
Definitely looks like what it's based on considering how it's teeth looks and the armored head, and the tail design is pretty close as well
More like Mosasaurus.
@@touremuhammad5983 Looks more like a Dunkelosteus than a mossasaurus

But I recognize that name from Russian language, that you hearing be like - "Акула". Is there sny difference, or did the director decide to choose this name for the monster?
Also there is a Soviet/Russian submarine class named Akula (Russians themselves call it "Щука" "Shchuka")
Most of Pandora's wildlife was given a human based name as translation, Banshees, viperwolves, hammerheads... nothing is surprising.
What do the Na’vi call it then?
a Russian scientist called a 'shark'
Those things are similar to graboids and sharks.
Plus Dunkleosteus
Good point.
"akula" is shark in russian
is just me or looks like is got jolted after a sip of espresso
Damn I forgot how nice the actual alien designs are in this series
Cgi doesn't look great though
second part is lie
jfc why is everyone so fckin obsessed with cgi perfection LMAOOOOOOOOO get a life😭
in theaters it looked way better than on yt tbh
CGI looked fantastic in theaters, I think this is a youtube issue
@@ndipngpl2004 Ive seen better movement and model detail in dino documentaries.
who else got Land Before Time flashbacks from that chase?
There's always a bigger fish.
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?
I've also noticed that the CGI for the Akula seems particularly worse than anything else in the movie for some reason.
I don’t remember the CGI in the theatre being less than what is showed here

right it look more like a video game than movie to me in that scene
This thing is probably the most interesting part of the movie
Not even close.
What does he have in his hands? Giant scissors?
a sort of underwater crossbow, good for spearing fish before they can react.
This looks like a videogame
you cant re-invent sharks, sharks are already sharks, their at the peak.

it's sarcasm right?

Bruh they’re literally aliens. It doesn’t have to make sense at all.

Like Meg film.
I´m so getting sharp-tooth vibes of this scene
I can't believe a space shark is named after a submarine.
Inspired from dunkleosteus?
So this is a underwater Thanator huh?
Yes

It’s called being territorial.
How the fuck can you forgive someone for putting you in a position like this?
but why does the bigger fish kill it if not eating it.
Time to ban cgi,otherwise we will have to see more abominations like these on screen 🤢🤮🥴
