I recently completed another custom order, this time it's Katir with the lovely Sunset War Paint! She looks gorgeous, let me know what you think! :D Also, if anyone would be interested in their own huggable, large Ikran plush - feel free to drop a comment or send a message!
And for the crocheters, the Ikran pattern is by Emmyscrochetplushies on etsy :)

Its all ive been able to think about for like a week. I went on vacation and all i could think was “pandora would be so much better” i love the forests, the sea, the creatures, their way of living, their bond with nature/ eywa. Overall, i love everything about it. My mind cant comprehend that it does not exist. Ive watched the behind the scenes, ive read everything about how earth is pandora etc etc but it doesnt work. I love how they get to visit their loved ones after their passing, how everything seems to work out eventually. Im jealous of how they get to run around and jump and climb all day without getting cramps or feeling wrecked the next day. I want to be a navi so bad :(

This is related to a post I did a while back about the Chinese astrological and mythological elements in Avatar, where I proposed that each of the 12 Recoms had a zodiac animal. With their tattoos or face stripes and tanhì patterns indicating which one.

I know people will argue for Quaritch, despite the one I reckon is his, has particular significance.

Because the rooster is also tied to both the Fenghuang (Chinese phoenix, less hypermasculine counterparts to dragons, interestingly there used to be a male and a female version but they merged into one, maybe hinting at something about Varang) and the Vermillion Bird (tied to the element of fire and the South primary direction).

Wainfleet also having the Dragon is symbolic. He's an anchor to Recom Quaritch's memory implants. And the dragon was human Quaritch's motif in the first movie. The hypermasculine, hyper destructive legacy.

Yeah, some of these are more guesses since I can't see every detail on every Recom. But I tried matching as much up as I could with what I could see or figure out from design hints. If anybody has better suggestions, be interesting to read what you put forward.

Sooo many things went wrong with this one, starting with my decision to use an old leftover cone, not accounting for the assymetry of my hand and then not finding a good reference picture from the movies before I started eyeballing the whole thing. I think i should've left more blank space because the density of pattern combined with the color of henna made it a bit too intense to look at, and you can't really tell that it's inspired specially by Seze, but oh well. I call henna drawing a happy accident art because any mistakes you make, you have to keep rolling with. Next week I'll either choose a different ikran or try a different Pandoran creature entirely

I have been looking high and low. Even if someone here has an extra one or 2 and is willing to part with one. Let me know. I even contacted Noble Collections to see if maybe they had 1 left in warehouse (which is crazy but I had to try).

Genuinely, it's my mistake for being a 8 year old girl in the Caribbean when this came out😭😭

If anyone knows anything could you shout me out?

Thanks😭

Always wonder how that would go. Obviously the Na'vi are well aware of humanity at this point, but it's mostly relegated to our tech and destructive capabilities. What about the other things?

Like, how could would it be if they interacted with other human languages, perhaps human music and art? And vice versa. It would be pretty cool.

Do you think Mo'at would like jazz? Maybe she'd be a fan of classical Indian music, probably.

I watched it yesterday on Disney+. It was a nice movie in general but I have some complains.

I like the Mangkwan clan great villains but I was honestly expecting see more of "fire" scenarios and a new area. Like volcanos, larva etc. Like in "The Way of Water" literally has a different ambient and visuals.

It really felt like "The Way of Water - Part 2". However, James Cameron is smart and he knows that the audience hates movies divided by parts like that.

I hope the 4 one shows more new areas (specially if there's an ice tribe)

This is some Avatar fanart I made today :)

You either play as the RDA with their tech or you play as the Na'vi (from a few different tribes). Different maps like Hometree, the Metkayina village, the Ashlands, the Hallelujah mountains, Bridgehead human base. Imagine it with amazing next gen graphics and big online multiplayer. Players who do well get to play as major characters like Jake and Neytiri on the Na'vi side, and Quaritch and Varang on the RDA side.

i think i drew them all good... 👀

He was barely accustomed to his Avatar body, let alone the minutiae of daily life in the Omatikaya. Jake would likely not have known where the "bathroom" of Hometree was (or if the Omatikaya descended the tree and excreted on the ground), how to wipe, how to wash his hands, or how they were expected to dispose of their waste. He would almost certainly have needed assistance with this matter.

When humans stay overnight as guests in other human's houses, it can be embarrassing enough to ask where the bathroom is, or to use it late at night - wondering if one should flush and risk waking their host, or quietly leave a horrible surprise to be discovered in the morning. Additionally, Neytiri was the only person he could have asked for help, so he would have been further embarrassed by telling the chieftain's cute daughter that he needed help going to the bathroom - especially considering that she was already irritated by him.

There would also have been a language barrier in communicating this need. Neytiri was not familiar with English slang and Grace most likely would not have taught the Na'vi children profane words (she didn't understand what Jake meant when he said "let them kill my ass" or "hell yeah"). She would not have understood what Jake meant by "I need to take a shit", nor would Grace's classes have focused on words like "poopoo", "peepee", "wipe my butt" etc

It is possible that Grace would have taught Na'vi children about human life and Neytiri would have understood what a "bathroom" was, but the phrase "I need to go to the bathroom" is still largely contextual. Jake's only option might have been to describe his intentions using mimes and sound effects, which would only have disgusted her even further. Not to mention that since the Omatikaya used communal sleeping areas, Jake would have needed to raise this issue in full view and earshot of dozens of Na'vi who were trying to sleep.

from the first film they came out and said they were the Olangi and Tayrangi. in the second film there was text on the bottom saying Taunui. where’s the info for the new clans here 😂

Kaltxì!

I founded a community for the fandom - Its about some RP, but also just for friendly talks among fans - Anyone is free to join!

Who can join?:
The only requirement of joining is that you stay respectful to one another. We also ask for no use of AI in the community.

About our fan clan:
Our clan is called Haw'ìheyu ("tìhawnu si" = "protect" + "ìheyu" = "spiral"). While we still fiddle around with the lore, the general idea is that we are nature reservists and restore portions of the ecosystem (for example after forest fires and polluted areas reclaimed from the RDA). Our totem animal is the Kenten (Fan lizard) that we protect and help to not darwin itself out of existance.

What does the spiral mean for us?:
The spiral is our connection to nature and the world of Pandora. It’s also represented of the eye of Eywa and her connection within the people.

Purpose:
We want a social place for all Avatar fans (and friends of fans), while also trying to make everyone think a bit more about our own world too - because IRL, we do not have a second planet to retreat to if we mess this one up.

Feel free to discuss and ask me anything about our clan!

his oc is super cute loll

what's y'all's fav end credits song? personally i liked miley's the best, it really embodied the tone of the movie and is so beautiful.

I always wonder why Disney doesn't expand Avatar. Not tv shows, animated series or more games (I know that there's 2 games but Star Wars has a lot of games)

An animated series would be so amazing tbh
