Finally watched The Way of Water last night and I have many thoughts head full of Avatar. First of all… it made me cry about 3x more than the original. Second of all.. I read a good few reviews before watching and now that I have, I can say that it seems most people who watch the movie have no critical thinking or analysis skills. Like did we even watch the same thing lmao. The criticisms of Spider playing “both sides”, Quaritch & the plot being the “exact same” and the whale hunting scene all seem ridiculous to me now.
Anyway. It was good, impactful, beautiful, if a bit.. scattered? Almost felt like it could have been a whole season of a show rather than 3 hours back to back, which would have made more room for certain characters, but alas, the industry doesn’t work that way.
