Every James Cameron movie ranked, from Avatar: The Way Of Water to Piranha II: The Spawning
are so jaw-dropping, it’s been all too easy for viewers to underrate the rest of the movie by comparison. Despite its length, it’s a masterpiece of pacing. The film begins with the close-up of an eye opening, and slowly the scope becomes ever larger, as Jake Sully emerges from a cryo-pod, first onto a spaceship, then into a lab, then into a new, larger blue body, and finally into a bio-luminescent rain forest, where he’ll learn to fly dragons and commune with six-legged horses.
Such comparisons also ignore the religious allegories at play, with Jake divinely chosen by Eywa, the planetary Gaia-consciousness, embodying the strengths of both the “sky people” and the Na’vi and able to walk in both worlds. As for the dialogue, “I see you” may not have been delivered as memorably as “I’ll be back” or “Game over, man,” but they’re working on the same level.
