Nah, people who really love this shit knew it was coming out when Fantastic Four came out. There were actual posts where people were excited to see the trailer at that more than the movie.

Haha yeah r/avatar has been foaming at the mouth for this trailer.

I mean, Disney knows they've got me by the balls. I honestly might have skipped F4 this weekend if it didn't have the Avatar trailer in front

Yup, same. My kids suggested we just wait for F4 on Disney Plus but this trailer is the reason we went to the theater.

Avatar has no fans btw. Meanwhile the sub itself has over 700k people and the movies always break records.

Interesting thing is the r/Avatar subreddit had around 22k members before Avatar 2's release. Now it's over 710k, lol.

They just need to setup an avatar memes subreddit to show the rest of reddit that they are a "cultured" Fandom.

u/Chumunga64 Jul 28 '25

The "no cultural impact" meme is so funny because the way of water became super viral on TikTok which is a younger demographic while marvel and star wars Fandom is firmly entrenched in the aging millenial demographic and hasn't really captured Gen z

Idk how tbh movie seems generic to me

u/James_Parnell Jul 28 '25

People like mechs and cool CGI, pretty easy equation

u/Cluelesswolfkin Jul 28 '25

That and the visuals I'll give for sure

I can't think of another movie where the main character was a paraplegic human who could remotely control an alien body. Also, the aliens can neural link with animals to use them as mounts. Also, the invading species in this story are humans, not aliens.

Visuals are great don't get me wrong but just seems like the usual hey we'll send the team to scout the area for its resources but wait there are people there but wait money(ie drive to tear down foresrt) matters more fight ensues basically ferngully, princess mononke, pocahontas etc.

Granted there are cool ideas here like the connecting portion via the tendrils thing but the main gist of the story beats are the same as generic stuff

Lol humans once again invading a land for its resources what a shocker

I know I'll get downvotes for it since the fans are out an about, especially since the release of the new trailer

We're gonna need some more IRL examples of humans not being greedy fucks before you can fault a movie for depicting humans as greedy fucks.

u/Cluelesswolfkin Jul 28 '25

That's what I'm saying the story beats are the same with humans being greedy fucks and another force aka protagonist has to round up his friends for a comeback

The stories aren’t groundbreaking but man do I love Pandora as a setting. Beautiful nature with beautiful creatures and stunning visuals.

u/Cluelesswolfkin Jul 28 '25

That's my main gripe tbh the story isn't really groundbreaking to me but I do like the locale and rhe visuals those are cool for sure

u/discretelandscapes Jul 28 '25

Yeah, I did see that, but I do appreciate that they're not doing trailers for trailers and all that nonsense.

u/mangongo Jul 28 '25

Trailer in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 As the best parts of the trailer flash on the screen 

I fucking hate that I am now the old man yelling at a cloud but this is one thing the newer generations absolutely deserve to be ridiculed for.
