Jesus, that looks incredible.

 

[Blade Hoarder]

The RTX 4090 would catch on fire just trying to render that hair.

 

[GothamCity]

Still looks fake. Yeah the blue creatures wont work and never will. Even the robots in T2 look 10 times more real.

“Won’t work”

the highest grossing movie of all time. But okay.

 

[Gothamsknight]

How does that not look real? It's almost night and day with the 2009 film.

 

[GothamCity]

Theres something about the blue color that makes it look fake. Its like the smurfs in a real enviroment it will always look strange, it doesnt work.

He's definitely not an Eywa resurrection. It's bioengineering by the RDA. It's not a huge leap to go from "we can grow a human/Na'vi in vitro and then project your consciousness into it" to "we can grow a human/Na'vi in vitro and then record your current self onto it." It's an internally consistent idea.

I imagine the movie is deliberately going to draw a contrast between someone brought back from the dead by tech (Quaritch) and one brought back by Eywa (Grace).

Sure, but "Oh, we kept brain tapes of various people including Quaritch" is a pretty big retcon, especially since Quaritch never exactly piloted an avatar body or otherwise interacted with the machinery onscreen.

I don't see why it's so big an ask given the amount of handwavium you have to mine to go with the general concept of an avatar at all.

Holy ****. Sounds like Cameron listened to a lot of the criticism the original movie's story got.
