The Na’vi bullies were also way too cliched. The overuse of the words ‘bro’ and ‘cuz’ was awful and distracting. ![]() I can’t get over how bad much of the dialogue was in this movie, but especially the dialogue among the teens. The aggressive digital zoom used in some scenes was also pretty off-putting. It’s immersion-breaking and takes me right out of the movie. 48fps sounds good on paper, but to me it creates the ‘soap opera effect’ by making everything appear too clear and unnaturally realistic. Moving from 24 frames-per-second to 48fps is jarring. While there’s no denying the visuals were great, I was much less fond of the dual framerates used in the movie. I really liked the aquatic stuff, and especially Lo’ak’s relationship with the outcast whale (more on that in a second) so I wouldn’t cut any of that, but there are plenty of other portions of the movie that could be tightened up. A lot of that could be in the final action sequences. ![]() Avatar 2 could easily be cut by 45 minutes or more, tightening up the pace of the film considerably. The special effects and 3D would have been just as pretty in 2 hours and 12 minutes. There’s simply no reason for this film to run 3 hours and 12 minutes. The final battle was too long, but so was the rest of the film, which meandered slowly for its first two acts before plunging us into the battle for the final act.
