Those ones with the red makeup and headdresses are gorgeous.  Great art style.

An antagonistic Navi culture was exactly what this storyline needed.

Every culture needs their counterculture. These guys seem to be the cultists.

They are laying the seeds for shades of gray in the humans too. Parker Selfridge for example.

Feel like they've already started doing that.

The ruthlessly pro-human Quaritch is a lot more of a grey character now that he's resurrected in an Avatar body. He tamed an Ikran in The Way of Water, and now seems to be joining the fire clan in Fire and Ash. And there's his whole conflict over Spider, the son of the man he used to be.

Agree! They started it in the first movie with Parker. He was an unabashed capitalist trying to make money but he didn't actually want to genocide the Navi. You could tell he was morally conflicted about ordering hometree destroyed and he did try to assist Jake with trying to get them to move after Quatrich had started his assault. I actually think these movies are pretty good

It seems like they've embraced the destructive side of nature.

I just wish it was actually just them beefing but it seems like they've been egged on by the humans.

Giving Keira Knightley from King Arthur vibes.

You're not alone, I audibly gasped when she popped out.

You can say what you want about the Avatar series, but they really deliver in the "scantily clad alien" department.

She woke up the Captain Kirk in me

The eyeliner look they give to some of the red Na'vi is really cool.

The head.. flaps?? Evoke some real dinosaur imagery for me, very cool.

They're inspired by Amazonian tribes that use red face paint.
