James Cameron's Sequel to "AVATAR"

[Monsieur Xavier]

Can navi breathe underwater in the first place? What if they can?

That would be biologically not coherent if not impossible with the way Cameron create his universe.
He makes thing that could possibly exist and make creatures that might work from a bio-mechanic point of view.

It is scifi not fantasy

 

[Doctor Jones]

I expect a race of Na'Vi' to be able to live underwater or something. Maybe they aren't even Na'Vi.'

One of the original final designs for the Na'vi had them with gills but Cameron got rid off them because Fox weren't too sure about the gills working with audiences.

 

[dark_b]

i dont like the idea of the na'vi fighting fish monsters with bows.

 

[Iceman]

Gills would have been cool. Being able to breathe underwater would have gone nicely with their affinity with nature. I would have liked that even with no suggestion of an underwater sequel.

 

[AnorexicBatman]

What will be the conflict? I mean we had Giovanni Ribisi as Looten Plunder and a pre-radioactive Colonel Duke "Nukum" Quatrich who dies thus destroying continuity. Will we see Dr. Blight or Sly Sludge?

Okay its sci-fi...maybe they cannot breath underwater but perhaps they can hold their breath for extended periods of time like dolphins and seals.
But lets say he did make them breath underwater...although it does seem highly unlikely you should still remember it is a different planet and environment from Earth. Hell, the air has very little to no oxygen...so maybe the oceans may have a different chemical composition as well?

Why would a jungle animal evolve the ability to swim like dolphins?

 

[Victarion]

It would be interesting if in the sequel, whatever sentient species live in Pandora's ocean play a role similar to the Na'vi, and the Na'vi were forced into a role like that of the humans searching for the Unobtanium.

 

[Maximus One]

Ok I dont understand why nobody has thought about this but maybe the Na'vi have some kinda marine mammal they can make the bond with like the banshees and the horse things.

I just wanna know why basically every animal on Pandora that we saw have 6 limbs. So why don't the Na'vi? I mean they could still be bi-peds and have another set of arms made to help them swing around like the lemurs or something. I dunno just something that didnt make to much sense to me evolutionarily speaking of course.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It almost felt like the Na'vi weren't really native on Pandora.

 

[Lord Blackbolt]

Instead of calling the movie Navi....I'd rather it called Pandora.

or Avatars

 

[Timstuff]

I want to see a movie about a Na'vi traveling to Earth and embodying a Human avatar. I think that would be a lot more interesting than "the continued jungle adventures of Jake and Netyri." Yeah, they'd have to come up with a pretty darned good explanation for why this would happen, but I think there's enough story potential there that it'd be worth it.

Some people will argue against that....

And maybe another type of beings on Pandora have underwater breathing features...

Avatars.... lol

The humans on earth wants revenge on the navi, and take whatever they have from earth onto Pandora.

 

[Silver Knight]

Unnecessary sequel.

First movie was a great film, but should be left as a solo story.

All about the $$$.

Sequel wont come out for about 7 years me thinks.

 

[spider-neil]

if A2 is under water I wonder if they will work out how to do underwater mo cap or if they will do all the zero g stuff by hand.

 

[matrix_ghost]

if A2 is under water I wonder if they will work out how to do underwater mo cap or if they will do all the zero g stuff by hand.

It too expensive & time consuming to do everything by hand. It'll be mo-capped. Hell Cameron even Mo-capped the helicopers and the hovercrafts using toy models.

Anyway check out Marketsaw's scoops on Avatar 2 :
http://marketsaw.blogspot.com/

AVATAR 2 will continue several years after the events of the original. It will also lay the groundwork for the other moons in the system. Things are going to get quite "weird" to the point of becoming somewhat abstract! Each movie will stand on its own and there will definitely be NO shooting the sequels back to back. Trilogy? Actually no. The sky is no limit for this universe - the plot lines are endless.

AVATAR 2 SPOILER ALERT: This is verbatim from my source...
"Oh and Pandora has a lot of **** coming its way. Break out the space marines, looks like some bugs need a stomping."

The next huge gimmick of film making... Underwater movies!

 

[dark_b]

everything that Cameron does is a gimmick right?

 

[Ipodman]

Well 'gimick' is a negative way of putting it...
I guess he just wants to try out new stuff

 

[dark_b]

try out new stuff?

the guy is obssesed with oceans and water. its ''cliche'' when Cameron is doing a movie underwater. its like Spielberg doing a movie about aliens and UFO.

i rather watch a Cameron movie where the main cahracter is a girl and its set in a futuristic city.

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

We will learn that the aliens in Abyss come from Pandora or moved there a long time ago and that they engineered the Na'vis ( I took this idea from the graphic Novel Aquablue ).

 

[Art_of_Crime]

I hope the next movies have less of a recycled story. I do like the idea of a water kingdom. I suppose we will see. I do hope that these movies are made because there is a story to tell, and not only because there is money to be made.
I also wonder about the people who were having withdraws and mood disorders because our world is not as good as the one in the movie. This might just be giving an addict another puff on the ol' blue crackpipe

 

[Sentinel X]

Why would a jungle animal evolve the ability to swim like dolphins?

They wouldn't. It would most likely be attributed to vestigial traits. Which is entirely plausible.

edit: I love how they're making each film stand alone. I always thought that was the best way to go because continuing the human/na'vi animosity over three films would be come a bore really quickly

 

[Carcharodon]

They wouldn't. It would most likely be attributed to vestigial traits. Which is entirely plausible.

Um...only in the event that the trait no longer has its original function, or has strongly reduced functionality. That's kind of the definition of "vestigial."
