The Way of Water analysis :    • (2024) The Power of 'AVATAR: The Way ...  

Back when AVATAR was released, there were news articles depicting a large number of people feeling depression and suicidal after watching the movie. As someone who felt this depression after seeing the movie for the first time in cinemas, I can tell you that the depression does not stem from the want to be on Pandora, the depression stems from the fact that this Earth IS Pandora.

The depression settles in as more realizations begin to occur. Humanity is allowing itself to become a disease to the planet, all for the sake of material gain. In any movie review of James Cameron’s AVATAR, we are mostly told it is praised for it’s CGI and not for it’s story. Which for the most part, lacked originality.

Comparisons are made to previous stories. Stories such as Ferngully, Pocahontas, and Dances with Wolves. Yet, what astounds me is that while people compare AVATAR to these films, they do not compare it to the events and situations that these films are focused on. Events and situations that are still ongoing to this day.

AVATAR uses symbolism and imagery to portray the atrocities committed by the Corporatocracy.

And, how our ignorance not only allows these atrocities to occur — but, also has halted our evolution.

AVATAR is not only a social commentary on the Extortion of Natural Resources, Exploitation of Indigenous Peoples, or Aboriginal Genocide. It is a simulation of what life can be..

Every claim in the analysis can be researched by anyone and a clear consensus can be reached.

The film not only shows that the planet we are from is the mother of all life, it shows an alternative form of humanity. The Na'Vi are representative of Neohumanism*, the next stage in our evolutionary path. The humans depicted in the film are clearly shown to be from the Western world. Working for Corporations that seek to maximize profits regardless of social or environmental loss. So, what we have here is a film depicting two possible forms of humanity, the old paradigm vs the new paradigm,

I hope this video shows you a new perspective on life or affirms your perspective. Enjoy.

    It’s amazing how most of the western film critics never acknowledged that Cameron made the ultimate anti western corporatisation movie
  • @Troopertroll
    No, that post-film depression was real. I have never really felt like I suffered from depression before or since, but for a period following the first time I saw the film it was absolutely crippling. It was a feeling like I wanted more than anything to be a part of such a world so natural and pure, and that it existed somewhere, but I would never see it in my lifetime.
  • I always knew there is something more behind the story of Avatar. That it is not simply "Pocahontas in Space". Thank you for this analysis. It helped. For over 13 years I was wondering why this "simple story" feels like it's the biggest movie in history. Now I understand. I feel way better.
  • @JoJoGranum
    I get irritated with the comparisons to other movies. Avatar is/was special. There is a clear message with Avatar that resonated with people. The fact people suffered depression after, to me feels like grief. At one time we were connected to the earth as the Na’vi are to Pandora in the movie. They are mourning the loss of the connection. I even felt it afterwards. Now that Avatar 2 is out, I teared up when I saw the world on the screen. I whispered, “Hello, Pandora. I’ve missed you.” This is an awesome analysis of the story here. Thank you .
  • @eyes1168
    I cried 4 times watching this video, because you made me realize there are so many other people who think the way I think of this movie and what it represents. Reality is harsh but we are not alone. Thank you.
  • @Itsginamendez
    I remember i was 13 when this came out. I was soo passionate about it. I got into a heated argument and even ended up crying at school cus no one would understand that the navi represent REAL people. This REALLY happened before and still does. Ruining others’ way of life for capital gain.
  • @okayman2057
    As a fellow empath. This movie has touched me on a deeper level. Avatar 2 has brought me back. I see you fellow humans. Let's all do better and becoming more sustainable for our fellow future generation.

    One of the moments in this video that made me feel most emotional was the one when you said that while we are living our normal, boring, monotonous lives, people up there are living true freedom. It really made me think a lot about how much better life can be on other planets. We struggle to fit in, we're always worried about waking up at 6 AM to go to work or to school, spending half a day with people we don't like, following rules we don't agree with and living in an environment that is slowly taking our freedom away from us. While we do all that, maybe, just maybe, somewhere up there in Space, on a Planet very far away, intelligent life forms just like us enjoy life at a completely different level. Not worried about made up concepts like money, taxes, religion and politics, living life as it was given to them by nature, not having to pay for existing. And again, just maybe, some intelligent life form in Space, on a different planet, has its mind connected to a giant flying animal, riding it freely in the blue sky, wind flowing through their hair-like structures, never worrying about falling down, never worrying about having to fit in with others, never worrying about made up concepts ... Just living ...
  • I don't think I've ever commented on YouTube before, but this video has blown my mind. It is just so, so, so unbelievbly superb, it has left me feeling all sorts of things and even crying. I'm going to send this to everyone I know and who would listen and I mean - L I S T E N - to this video, all of it and really understand the themes and topics you discuss. And as final comment - I'm someone who's been afraid of dying for as long as I can remember - always thinking it might happen before I've fulfilled my mission in this life. But hearing the way you speak and the things you discussed, for the duration of this video my fear went away and was replaced by peace. Something that has never happened before. Thank you so so so much for this video! You're changing the world for the better, one person at a time <3
  • I still remember how pissed I was when the movie, Twilight, won best movie on MTV awards, over Avatar. Literally stopped watching MTV after that
  • @TheWicked5431
    The fact this dude didn’t plug his channel and talked only about the movie is crazy. This movie has truly impacted me and your in depth analysis has made me love it more and opens my eyes to movie even more. You’ve definitely earned another subscriber!
  • @njshabangu
    This analysis did so much more than help me get insight on the movie, it gave me a better understanding of life. Thank you, this was absolutely amazing.
  • @Droggarth
    Ohh, yes! Finally a youtube video that doesn't trash Avatar and actually sees value in the movie of Avatar. I love Avatar since I first watched it in 2009 after my scoliosis surgery, for me everything in the movie was memorable, from well-executed story to beautiful visuals and beautiful music. I like Jake Sully as the protagonist because he is kinda like me and I love the Na'vi and Neytiri. I'm a xenophile so pleasant aliens like the Na'vi are my favorites. Since the extended version of Avatar was released (and before the extended version) I've rewatched the movie every year at least once. This movie really does show current damage of humanity and perhaps that is why many don't like the movie, people don't seem to like truth and change. As far as I am concerned, I prefer existence where values of the Na'vi are mixed with advanced space-faring technology in a harmonious mix. This movie sure made an impact on me, "no cultural impact" me arse!
  • @gwenjohnson7373
    The part near the end where eywa fights back with her local fauna reminded me of vaccination. Grace's whole experience fell into Eywa and the planet was able to build a real and effective natural reaction from her scary but harmless presence and memories.
  • @arip9134
    This video needs millions of views. I'm tired of idiots bashing Avatar for being a trash movie because they're too brain dead and simple-minded to process the true meaning to this movie. All they see is "Heepr deherp, EnDgAmE BeTtEr mOvIe HURP DHURFP"
  • @verdantis9960
    Avatar may not have the best script or the most original story, but it is one of my favourites due to the message, the beautiful world and Na'vi culture. Watching this film is what initially woke me up and made me want to do all in my power to take care of my home planet.
  • @jaredadams939
    This is the best video essay I’ve watched. I hate it when people give avatar crap about story and say it’s only good for its visuals. This video made me feel validated in my love for avatar. Thanks for all the work you put into this video. It’s so thought out and well organized
  • @Frank-ox3np
    Dude I literally watched Avatar like 2 days ago after taking shrooms and I kept crying because everything about this movie spoke to me. There was something about the freedom and connectedness the Navi have with each other and themselves that I long for so much. The depression people experience after watching this makes so much sense. Your heart is exposed to the true potential of human experience and then when the movie is over you have to go back to the “real” world, where everyone is selfish and deceitful, work is rigid and repetitive, and it feels like everything is holding you back from a meaningful existence. I feel so sorry for the people that don’t get it.
  • Stuff like this makes you wonder if our ancestors were actually better off than we are. Great analysis.
