#Avatar #WayOfWater #Theories

Now there is definitely going to be an avatar 3, because it was filmed simultaneously with the way of water. James Cameron originally wanted to make 4 sequels to Avatar, but said that 3 is written to be a possible ending to the story, for two reasons. One, he said that way of water will need to be the 3rd or 4th highest-grossing film of all time to show a profit. And two, he literally said, “the question is, how many people give a shit now.”

The James Cameron press tour for this movie has been chef’s kiss. [play a clip.]

Cameron also told Collider that the studio had no notes on the draft of part four…except for the words, “holy fuck.” And producer Jon Landau told Screen Rant, “each sequel will take us to new places.”

So we’ve seen the rainforest of Pandora and people who live in the Pandoran equivalent of the south pacific. So theoretically the sequels would show us a desert region, or a polar cap religion–all very exciting.

And of course, we also know the characters from the Way of Water who will be continuing on–spoiler alert–like Quaritch, Jake, Neytiri, and most of the Sullys. [the wrong kid died].

That’s what we know–so now let’s get into wild speculation and theories. And I have what I think is a pretty strong guess about what’s coming next. First I’m going to talk about the larger story all the movies are going to tell, then I’m going to take some guesses about where the characters’ journeys will take them–and the impact they’ll have on the final story.

So, big picture, the Na’vi are screwed. In the first movie, the only thing at stake for the humans was a valuable mine. You could see them cutting their losses and saying it wasn't worth the trouble. But in the Way of Water, we learned that the humans aren’t on Pandora for a science mission, or to find minerals–they are bent on full-on occupation and conquest.

Earth's resources have bee––n used up, the planet is uninhabitable, and now for humanity, it’s Pandora or bust. So there is no way the sky people will let up, because either survival is at stake. Well, there are a few reasons they would choose to leave Pandora that I’ll go over in a bit.

There’s also a substance on this planet that literally stops human aging. So human beings would kill every space whale in the universe if it made them into an immortal Brad Pitt. [fight club, selling fat asses back to them]. We saw in this movie that humans are not interested in scientific discovery or exploration–they just want to use Pandora to support their extravagant lifestyles.

The first major human colony on Pandora is called Bridgehead City. And a Bridgehead is a strong position inside enemy territory that is used for staging further attacks. So just by its name, we learn that this is the first position of a larger attacking force. Like Jake warned the na’vi chief here [DWW, how many, like the stars].

In fact, there are 13 other moons orbiting the gas giant Polyphemus. If any of those are habitable, humans may conquer those as well. And then they could use this alpha Centauri network of bases as a staging ground for more extra-solar conquest.

And since the humans in Avatar behave like the Terran empire in Star Trek's mirror verse, this would be very bad news for the rest of the galaxy. So it’s vital that the na’vi on Pandora stop human expansion before it can start.

But like I said, the na’vi are basically screwed. Historically, when a more technologically advanced force encounters a less-developed society, it doesn’t turn out well for the natives. History is filled with accounts of Europeans slaughtering and conquering other nations with their advanced weaponry and artillery. But if you go back even further, the first ape to use a bone as a weapon condemned other tribes to die of thirst [2001 broll].

The point is, history is not on the side of the Na’vi. For the most part, human history has proven that if you don’t adopt advanced technology, then your people suffer and die. And, as we’ve seen, the Na’vi won’t change their way of life–though they have started using human weapons at the start of the movie.
