A technical achievement, and while the script hasn’t gotten any better since the first time I saw it, hopefully these days people have a better understanding of the inherently white supremacist trope of neophyte lunkhead Jake becoming a much better Na’vi than the Na’vi themselves. ⏰⏰
Steph:
The script is bad for one, like all of James Cameron’s scripts—some of the worst dialogue of all time—and it’s racist, with the White Savior trope really driving it home, but I loved two things: the action sequences and spectacle of the film, as well as the pretty basic premise that humans are destroying the planet. ⏰⏰
