Arrival at Pandora | AVATAR

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มี.ค. 2015
- The ISV Venture Star, and the other ships of its class, represent the highest technological achievement in human history. As with the other ships of the “Capital Star” class, it was designed to carry a large payload of cargo and passengers to the worlds of the Alpha Centauri star system, especially the rich world of Pandora.
_____________________________________________________________
Mission:
The ship's current mission is the exploitation of indigenous resources on Pandora, and is one of twelve ISVs that travel between Earth and Pandora on a continuing basis.
Size:
Length = 1,502.4 meters; Width = 302.25 meters; Height = 218.3 meters.
Range:
4.4 light-years. This range is set by onboard fuel supply and its containment system, and the life-support consumables, and the infrastructure needed to contain them. Because each gram of mass must be accelerated and decelerated (as well as the onboard fuel to accomplish this), every possible weight-saving measure has been taken. The ship carries only enough fuel for the planned mission profile, and a minimal amount of additional maneuvering. There are only enough supplies for the minimum crew needed to remain out of cryosleep. Air, water, and food must be replenished at Pandora, and the ship refueled there with locally-manufactured anti-matter and hydrogen and deuterium harvested from Polyphemus.
Cruising speed:
210,000 kilometers per second (70% of lightspeed, or 0.7 c).
Maximum Acceleration: 1.5 g.
Mission Profile:
0.46 year initial acceleration @ 1.5 g to reach 0.7 c; 5.83 years cruise @ 0.7 c; 0.46 year deceleration; 1 year loiter in orbit around Pandora; 0.46 year acceleration @ 1.5 g to 0.7 c for return trip; 5.83 years cruise; 0.46 year final deceleration @ 1.5 g to go into orbit around Earth.
Mission Duration:
6.75 + 1.0 + 6.75 = 14.5 Earth years. However, relativistic effects shorten the time onboard ship to slightly less than 6 years each way.
Power Source:
Hybrid deuterium fusion / matter-antimatter annihilation.
Propulsion: Two hybrid fusion/matter-antimatter engines. One photon sail. One fusion PME (Planetary Maneuvering Engine.) Beamed photon power from Earth for outward acceleration phase; ship’s hybrid fusion / matter-antimatter power for deceleration phase on approach to Pandora. Sequence reversed for return to Earth.

The CGI of this movie is out of this world. Especially for a movie that came out in 2009.
AugmentedGravity Quite literally ;)
It's James Cameron vision boyo
@@stanleyantonio4458 only cameron himself can out do it.
@@stanleyantonio4458 yupp for how much cgi avatar has like no wonder avengers and avatar has great cgi bechus is same cgi company that did the cgi
@teletubbykiller54 Cameron has a hand for creating timeless movies.
It took the ship 6 years to travel from Earth to Pandora, which is located in Alpha Centauri. So the ship travel at around 50% the speed of light. Presumably the ship accelerated the same as Earth gravity. It'll take around 6 month of constant acceleration to reach the terminal speed. Then they need to flip the ship around and decelerate at about 6 month before they reach Pandora.
as far as the wiki goes the isv travel at 0.7c but the relativistic effect make up for the different time registered by the crew..
@@andrews.5212 Yeah, the crew experiences 4 years of the journey instead of 6.
@@BladeEffect no no. The crew experiences 6 years but the real time will be 8 years. 12 months are wasted in just accelerating and decelerating
@@dranzergigs8333 Yes, you're right. I forgot about the fact that acceleration takes a lot of time.
I don't get it. If it's going so fast how would they flip it?
Spacecraft wise, Avatar was a very accurate glimpse into where we might be at in the 22nd Century in regards to interstellar travel. Possible but insanely challenging just like the first transatlantic voyages.
SinDawg030 Yep. We are not so far from mastering cryogenics (hell right now we can keep biilogical matter in perfect frozen condition, only problem being that no human could survive it right now due to technical limitations especially with water crystalization) and our space ship technology is increasing each years. Im sure that in the next 60 years we'll have succesfully built a self sufficient martian colony and, if no incident happen, perhaps in one or two hundreds years we will be able to travel to distant star systems in a manner similar to that of Avatar (years long travel in frozen cryo)
If we could build the ship like this, how long do you think it would take to build this large spaceship?
Marcus Zhang Years
how many?
Marcus Zhang Right now? I think probably 20-50 years. Depending on the amount of resources put into it on a yearly basis. In 100 years, I guess it would probably be closer to 5 years. Seeing how by then we could probably build orbital shipyards and construction robots. Building such huge vessels in 0 gravity is much easier than back on earth. That and robots can survive slightly longer in space than humans can.
Ah... one of the most realistic sci-fi interstellar space ship ever conceived. Such a beauty.
Including 1:22, where you can see the hinge where the rotating hab structures can be folded against the main spine during acceleration/deceleration, instead of being spun
1:25 this looks like it's set up to be one of Jupiter's moons. Can you imagine if one of Jupiter's moons being earth like and full of life? NASA would probably cover it up to the public and send more probes there than they would do Mars, maybe even send a man mission!
@@Angry.General1461 why exactly would NASA cover it up? they have nothing to gain from that
@@Cd5ssmffan the same reason why the government would cover up the Roswell crash and reverse engineered the technology from the crashed UFO. The same reason why NASA cover up the face on Mars claiming it's a natural rock formation. Do some research!
@@Angry.General1461 Oh, no... Another guy with a tinfoil hat...
No wonder it's the most successful movie ever made. This arrival scene alone would be worth the price of admission.
lol it's probably my favourite part of the film. pretty hard sci fi interstellar ship! for once!
+Milky Wayan Agreed! My favorite part too! And to know that this will all be possible someday. The time frame is could be fairly reasonable for this type of interstellar travel. Antimatter propulsion is possible. The only thing that needs to be done is to figure out how to contain it and make a significant amount of it while keeping it cheap as well :)
+jlg395 I'm so glad that it is teh most successful movie of all time! It is so badass!
+Cristian Acosta I thought this ship was using a Solar Sail, that big mirror like thing that almost looks like a solar panel; see, light is possibly a wave, and we can basically catch light waves and use that as a propulsion system to travel near the speed of light. It makes sense of Pandora is of a solar system that is nearby, the closest system, apparently Pandora is in the Alpha Centauri system which is only about 4 light years away, and it took them just under 6 years to get to it, so I always thought it was a solar sail.
Zelly64 isn't driven by a solar sail. The interstellar spaceship is driven by anti matter as well as nuclear engines. It was in the year 2154. Future sc fi film.
Nearly a decade later, this movie is still breathtaking. I like how James Cameron used real-world physics instead of a cliche warp drive to imagine Interstellar travel. Then there's the storytelling potential: tribes of Na'vi have been detected all over Pandora in subarctic, mountainous, swampland regions. Cameron has mentioned they will be exploring other cultures of Na'vi, the other moons, the planets orbiting Alpha Centauri B, etc.
Rembrandt van Rijn he did do a physics degree so..
VIDURA JAYAWARDENE He did?
Hold on they will be exploring other worlds in the sequels?!?! That’ll be epic tbh. I wonder if there will be other civilisations in the Alpha Centauri System
and the oceans of pandora. wonder what life could be there
@@topguntk870 something big and mean if the terrestrial life is anything to go off
The vehicle designs in this movie are awesome! The choppers, space shuttles, and mech suits are all badass looking!
"Ah luv d'smell of Cee-Gee-Ai in the mornin' "
So sad they spent so much in visual effects and so few for a decent plot. Such a a great movie to see, with a complete forgettable story.
Such a shame that all of them, except the second Valkyrie shuttle, gets blown into pieces...!
@@eliaspeter7689 Yeah, a shame that everything is just completly destroyed.
@midgetydeath You have to remember that Pandoras atmosphere is denser as well as thick with heavy gasses such as methan (thats why humans cant breath there unassisted), its also only 80% of Earths gravity.
The choppers can achieve the same level of lift as on Earth at far lesser power.
Imagine having the imagination to create this world in your head but not being able to replicate it until Technology catches up! James Cameron is an absolute genius!
Avatar is a very good movie
curiosity news no it’s not. It’s the best movie ever made in all of digital film existence.
@@Starset1881 lol if endgame doesn't hold the record as long as or longer than Avatar is it a fail?
@@Starset1881 buddy avatar 2, 3,4&5 coming up starting from 2021....
Take away all the pretty cgi and it's just a rehash of the movie Dances with Wolves
Just came from Avatar 2. Wish we got more space scenes. But the small ones we did were just as good.
I almost cheered seeing the ship going full throttle decelerating, such a small thing but sci-fi never acknowledges that it takes the same amount of energy to decelerate as it does to accelerate. Also the visuals from both the planet surface and in space were phenomenal. Realism makes sci-fi so much more interesting.
Avatar 2 made me wonder why the ISV is facing the wrong direction in this scene though. The engines are pointing the wrong way for a deceleration burn.
@@TheAero1221the ships are from the 22nd century so it’s gonna be different
@@redjayyz6066 I'm referencing a disparity between the first and second movie.
@@TheAero1221The ship probably already decelerated enough. I think it was going in prograde because it was preparing itself to get into orbit around Pandora. In the second movie maybe the procedure is different, because they are many ISVs instead of just one.
I love how the humans in Avatar have the level of technology of what actual 22nd centurians would have. Unlike any sci-fi space opera, no warp or teleport, no gravity control onboard, no aircraft-shaped spacecraft.
Tbh I seriously doubt we will be able to get to another star by then. If we're lucky we have a few small outposts on Mars at this rate.
@@scholaroftheworldalternatehist we will be on Mars maybe even in this decade. We went from muskets to spacecraft in 100 years. The 22nd century will definitely be more advanced than just a few outposts.
@@flyingkite2972 Stagnation is the norm in history, not rapid periods of development as happened in the past 200 years. We're still flying planes invented in the 60s and have yet to return to the moon 50 years later.
@@scholaroftheworldalternatehist Things need a motive to happen, ideas are not enough...
@@geokon3 yep and also nowadays we just send probes because it's cheaper and doesn't risk the brains you need to study the stuff ;p There's no bragging rights to get humans back on the Moon. Mars, perhaps
This movie did so many things right, and quite scientifically accurate as well. I love this scene, it gave me goosebumps in the theater and the movie had only just started.
1:25 this looks like it's set up to be one of Jupiter's moons. Can you imagine if one of Jupiter's moons being earth like and full of life? NASA would probably cover it up to the public and send more probes there than they would do Mars, maybe even send a man mission!
@@Angry.General1461 And why, Mr. Conspiracy Theorist would it be covered up?
@@nulliusinverba220 it's not a conspiracy it's called the truth. There are a lot of secrets in the government.
@@Angry.General1461 yea but the amount of people involved in such a monumental project alone would make it next to impossible for it to remain a secret
@luke wilson relatively speaking. The venture star looks more like a real space ship than most other ships in movies. It has radiators, the crew section is relatively small in comparison to the rest of the ship, it has rotating modules for the crew. It is supposed to be powered by antimatter-matter reactions which is atleast plausible (though probably not enough to get a ship to 0.7c).
This is why I love James Cameron’s work because everything he thought is like near future technology and the ISV Venture Star is how a 22nd century interstellar spacecraft should look like
I really like the world building for the humans in this movie, the spacecraft, shuttles, logistics, aircraft, mechs etc were really well done
Also the entire notion of using PMC's and other contractors for base life support and logistics. It had certain parallels to the issues occurring during that time. (I was a contractor and saw this movie in Kuwait for the first time)
Looking at your SPQR logo, you have to wonder how a 22nd Century interstellar Roman Empire would approach the Na'vi savages. Demand submission or go directly to annihilation from orbit?
@@roswellcrashsurvivor6726 Demand submission first prolly
This scene had been the initial trigger for me to study aerospace engineering. It still gives me goosebumps everytime I watch the movie. Thank you Mr. Cameron :-)
Did Coronavirus end your dream cupcake?

@@benyseus6325 fukc aliens i say we kill em all.
1:37 was a wallpaper on my desktop for ages before I realised, after re-watching the movie, that it was Avatar. I chose it because it's a very realistic design. I'm not exactly sure what propulsion it uses, but I'd guess some kind of chemical/ion combination by the massive heat radiators.
I've actually considered building it in KSP, after noticing I had all of the parts, including the round tanks and massive radiators.
This movie generally gave me the chills, wondering why a corporation would spend so much to go here, answered by a room temperature super conductor. That is the holy grail of engineering, the only thing better would be a perpetual motion machine.
I keep hearing it's fusion powered, but either way the huge radiators would still make sense
antimatter engines.
The ship combines a sail propelled by solar system based lasers and matter-antimater engines. Balls are fuel tanks and orange rectangles are excess heat radiators. Sail also serves as a debris shield for most of the cruise.
What's KSP if I may ask?
James 501 A very popular (I’d even say the most popular) space simulator. A lot of people who range from space nerds to actual engineers play it because it’s very realistic. KSP stands for Kerbal Space Program (Kerbal because the space agency’s base is located on s fictional planet named Kerbin)
Locker is labeled "T" instead of "J" because place was prepared for his brother. Nice small detail.
in 0:56 you can see the "cryo-sock" flying just behind Jake - who gets could feet?
ALEX Soklakov I just rewatched this scene again and I was confused by the T! Thank you for pointing that out!
Tom was killed by RDA or Quarich guys, for Jake - because he was marine and simple to debate about recon
@@mrus2583 Didnt Tom die of a mugging? They mentioned that the Avatar program was expensive as hell and Tommy's death was a massive financial loss, to the point that they had to bring in Jake just to recoup that fiscal loss, so I don't think the RDA killed him.
the ISV Venture Star, a ship so scientifically accurate it has radiators
The movie version of 2001 would be the first if it weren't for the fact that there would be complaints about the Discovery having wings by test and concept viewers.
@@TheTrueAdept yeah, I always thought the old design for discovery looked better anyway, it's a real shame.
@@gavinn9446 blame the 'reality is stranger than fiction' trope for that change. Since back then all the nitty-gritty is unknown to everyone outside of literal rocket scientists and aerospace engineers...
@@TheTrueAdept I sense a fellow lurker on TvTropes. :D
@@SerialSnowmanKiller I occasionally lurk there...
I saw Avatar in 3D at Imax - twice - and I remember laughing for sheer joy at this scene - the epic scale of it as the Venture Star passed over the camera. It had the same feeling for me of that opeing Star Destroyer in Star Wars passing overhead. Avatar remains to this day the most visually breataking movie I've ever seen. It still holds up. The story was only so-so but I give it a pass because of how good the technical achievements were in creating this eye-candy spectacular.
This is what I love about the Avatar franchise. The tech is SO WELL DONE and it's just... there. This is one of the greatest space ship designs in the history of cinema and it just pulls up like a Greyhound bus. No one is in awe, this is just what life is like. People do checklists and preflight inspections with an aire of professional routine. Things are controlled in a way that's ergonomic and sensible, yet also very cool. Things look good AND work. It's so good.
Well Cameron hired the best artists for this and if I remember correctly he can also draw himself too so ye...no wonder everything from ship/vehicle designs and creature designs turned out so good. Honestly when I was watching both the movies I was thinking to myself "they are so gonna turn every darn vehicle into legos, toys and other merchandise because they just look like they were designed also merchandise in mind 🤣 if we were living in 90s I could so see even the freaking TV commercials for Avatar action figures/toys 😂
Still getting goosebumps when I see this scene. This movie is like the Crysis of the movie scene, it still holds up and trumps most movies in terms of VIsuals despite having been the first 3D movie. Absolutely astonishing.
100% agree with you. And to think TH-cam won't let me upload a higher quality version!
Maybe this is how I'll have to explain hi-fi sound to people ;p Or using a more costly or premium (initially) product can last longer xD
I would love to see how Earth is doing in the next Avatar
Echo H TIZ Theres a scene on earth at the beginning

Gotta love the realism of this film.
Wish I could see the movie for the first time again.
CombraStudios ok mind wipe
I saw the movie in February 2010 when I was 12 and in 35mm it was actually the longest movie I’ve sat thru to this day.
Ameen Ouassaddine that’s nothing I sat thru lord of the rings and that’s longer
Same
@@ameen2947 When I was 12 I saw Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon
Damn 2009's CGI looks better than some now
Than most now
They took a lot of time to create it, movies today usually hit deadlines too fast to finish a lot of work, like in the case of Black Panther.
Éliás Péter I wiped my ass using black panther merchandise. That movie was shit
Not just some.Better than everything
@@stanleyantonio4458 avengers starwars is the movies with good cgi duo DINSEY MONEY and its same CGi studio that made avatar that did the cgi for star wars and most of infinity war and endgame
At minute 1:01 you can read T. Sully on the locker, making reference to the fact that the locker would belong to Tom Sully, who was the twin brother of Jake Sully and was supposed to participate in the Avatar Program of the RDA and who prepared 3 years.
This clip is my favorite part of Avatar. i'd love to see a feature about this kind of interstellar journey.
Grigoriy you must have loved Interstellar.
@@Shadowkey392 Interstellar's problem was overexplaining everything. Nolan does this a lot
So glad they showed these modified atmospheric-capable ship's matter anti-matter propulsion slowing down as they approached Pandora. An absolute badass scene until they burned the wildlife and Forest 😫
I though they will skip the ships this time. BOY was I wrong, they banked on it BIG TIME.
Man, the technological designs in this movie were amazing and very well thought through. You can tell James Cameron knows his shit.
Absolutely magnificent opening. The atmosphere, the score, the cinematopgraphy and visual effects... just magnificent.
I agree
Almost 13 years later and we'll finally be able to see a sequel to a film that has blown me away. Im hyped now!
This truly deserved the box office No.1 spot it received
1:53 gives me chills because of how cool it is.
1:03 this music gives me chills I love it
One day. One day we will be able to build a ship like this. Using a photon sail to accelerate outward from earth and use matter-antimatter engines to slow down and return to Earth.I love the design of this ship, it's brilliantly feasible. I hope in the sequels we get more screen time of this ship and its fleet.
yep, we are currently planning to send small solar sail chips guided by laser beams from earth to alpha centauri system, and we can make a small amounts of antimatter in testing facilities, but to be able to make these things, we have to put more research to this and put money on space exploration instead of other bullshit things we put money on now, i hope i live long enough to see something like this
We can only hope Cameron has thought about us hard scifi fans with the sequels... who knows. With four sequels he has plenty of time to show flashbacks to humanity's first landing on Pandora for instance; imagine what an amazing scene that could be...
the initial landings on pandora was sending 2 rovers to explore the surfaces of pandora and later sended humans. the initial landigs was like 2084
But even then, the probability of us finding anything beside barren rocks in Alpha Centauri is miniscule. There might be a Pandora-like world somewhere out there but I seriously doubt mankind will ever get to make contact with it.
They did the government is just keeping it secret.
1:54 I still remembered watching this in IMAX cinema where people inside can feel like the plane just fly above supersonic.
I love this scene because unlike conventional 3D films that constantly throwing objects to the screen to show its technology, Avatar simple began with a breathtaking perspective to meet your satisfaction.
1:03 The 4 large spheres are tanks used to hold hydrogen for the fusion reactors.
The 2 flat, red beds are literally just radiators that dissipate the heat generated. The Mirror in the back dubs as a radiation deflector to shield the habitation section (the long truss behind the spheres), and also is a “solar sail”. Which uses photons of light to push the ship.
Great description, thanks!
Actually the 16 kilometers wide photon sail is stored in the cargo bay and the mirror in the back serves also the purpose of protecting cargo and crew from the big ass lasers used to accelerate the ship
@Bradley Eversley its not powered by fusion m8 its antimatter
This was the first 3D movie I had seen since Jaws 3 and it blew my mind. I felt like I was in another world, it was a great escape during a huge recession. I didn’t know if I would have a job the next day, but I forked out 12 bucks and thought it was money well spent.
Jim Cameron's attention to detail remains unmatched to this day.
That's why I'm excited for the sequels after everyone else has stopped caring. Even if the story is derivative and the dialogue cheesy again, the tech will simply kick ass
Definitely the first thing you want to say when you wake up from cryosleep, "Are we there yet"
This film remains one of the best films I have ever seen, I cannot wait for a second one and I only hope it’s as good as this one. I heard Ubisoft are making a game which if true will truly be a work of art in the gaming industry. Such an amazing franchise
Good news, the sequel is somehow better, at least in my opinion. Can't wait for the next one
This honestly still gives me goosebumps to the whole scope of this mission. It's one of the reasons when I was younger that inspired me to pursue space engineering... which I now work in. Yet I still come back to watch this very clip to remind myself, we WILL find what it takes to achieve this one day. It all boils down to a great understanding in physics, human biology and pure ingenuity. This will be a global effort in the form of a large corporate entity.
And just like in the film, it will be to pillage other worlds after we've depleted the Sol system. If our current cultural precepts continue unabated, we will swarm like locusts across the galaxy. Man will touch the stars, but not because we are curious. It will be to devour them. Hopefully this is averted, and we go not to conquer but as explorers.
1:48 that part is just beautiful theirs just something about hearing mission controll through the radio whcih gives e chills along with the music i cant wait till we have one of these ships.
This movie has aged so well. Still looks like it came out yesterday.
It's photorealistic in most shots. Not only good CGI, but incredible implementation. Just look at the scenes with green-screen backgrounds and human-Na'vi actors. It looks better than greenscreen in 2019, and most of this was filmed in '06-'08!
James Cameron should direct and produce a Star Trek movie. He'd do a phenomenal job and the "Strange new worlds" would look incredible.
One of the best hollywood science fiction movies ever .... Masterpiece
James Cameron is one of the few directors who makes movies you can watch repeatedly. Goes someway to explaining why his films break box office records.
Not this movie. His last good movie was True Lies.
@@Thunderchild-gz4gc Totally disagree.
That shot slightly after 1:53, with the build-up, sound design and music is an example of the pure power of cinema. Come to think of it, this whole sequence and much of the rest of the film is also masterfully crafted. One of my all-time favourites.
I could watch an entire movie of just these space scenes!
Kudos to the team who worked on Avatar. It didn't take multiple movies to set up or big names starring in it. Still it became the most successful movie ever made.
He might not star in the movie,
but James Cameron isn't exactly a random person lol
Also James Horner with the music. I guess James just likes James'
For the highest grossing movie of all time, this movie is highly underrated.
not for long the highest grossing movie

When someone asks what is your favorite sci-fi spacecraft I always answer: Venture Star!
Most beautiful ISV ever created in a film!
Yeah, Interstellar's Endurance is a close second to me.
@@jemuelmongado5030 the interstellar ship is very slow and can only go to the moon and mars. Its very tiny, and it was lucky to have a handy alien wormhole right next to earth. The shuttles were pretty cool but too small to take more the 3 people.
@@goldendragon6282 Well, their purposes were different, so their tech is different too. Endurance was built for five crew and only needed to reach Saturn,so it had chemical engines. Venturestar was built to transfer hundreds of personnel and gigatons of cargo to Alpha Centauri, so it has engines meant for interstellar travel.
Most folks, even sci-fi fans, would look at you, scratch their head and go "Eh?! Venture Star?" lol
For me second is the dadeluos form stargate sg1
Almost 6 years to travel there? Another 6 years to go back to Earth? Damn I can't fathom that.
Not that bad
You sleep and don't notice the time
they havent developed warp jump yet.
And that's just to travel to the closest star system to us. Imagine having to traverse 10000 or even a million light years. We are insignificant in scale.
Not all of them the crew has to stay awake for those 12 years to make sure the ship doesn’t get damaged after 12 years in space.
That ship is awesome. looking forward to what the sequel has to offer.
Would be a beautiful place to live. Imagine that gas giant on the horizon, what a sight.
Id want to change the graphics a bit, make it where humans see a mostly dreary surface, but to the Navi the planet is full of bright colors because they see a slightly different part of the electromagnetic spectrum. So you have Jake wanting to pilot his remote body because he sees the wonderful view, while in his human body the environment is bland. Some people use goggles to see as the Navi do, but even then they know it is an interpretation.
Todd Kes I like that idea a lot
I'm so happy to see this marvellous ships again in the Way of Water. Especially their laser thrusters.
I know I’m late but I wanted to say I absolutely hate how this movie gets hate personally this is my favorite movie ever it’s so good and every second to me was enjoyable. I don’t usually watch longer movies 2+ hours I mean but I’ve rewatched avatar so many times it’s so good.
I just rewatched it last night. I’ve seen it so many times over the years and still love it.
I'm excited for see Avatar 2
1:29 i love how james cameron included the other two moons in the background because it will be the next plot of the franchise. Ive read an article about the details of the next movies, the second movie coming next year will feature the underwater life of pandora while the next avatar 3 and 4 will feature the other moons of the gas giant and its evil inhabitants. According to dr grace Augustine, Pandora is one of the many moons orbiting the planet Polyphemus, a gas giant the size of Saturn. so if pandora can harbor life so can the other moons. Im so excited 😁
Always thought the one in the top right was just a shadow
Wow thats so cool!
Loved the aircraft design in this, especially the shuttle.
The glowing radiators were things I never thought I'd appreciate in a blockbuster science fiction movie.
This is one of the greatest Si-Fi films of all time
since STAR WARS!!!!!
this movie was so NOSTALGIA!!!!!
I remember this movie being 9 years old.
this is what was like back in the time when there was a lot of James Cameron fans out there were reacting to this movie. and all people around the world and in each country saw AVATAR for the first time
they loved that movie so much. and then right after when the movie came out.
there was a lot of good reviews and critics alike about this film that people say that the whole world of Pandora was so so real and it looks fake and CGI with using ILM - Industrial Light & Magic by Lucasfilm and George Lucas.
and then after that they made a themed park land at Disney’s Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney Word in Orlando, FL
and a lot of AVATAR fans love the land at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
we never forget James Cameron’s AVATAR
always...
Thank you James Cameron.
can’t wait to see you again with the new Avatar sequels into the movie theaters and cinemas everywhere and near US.
2:04 Coolest-looking space shuttle ever!!!
I like that blue light on Jake's face at the beginning. Foreshadowing, anyone?

@@molonkeyking580 You slow ass

This is the only movie I've seen in 3 D which I liked in 3D more than 2D. It Blew my mind.
1:35 that shot of the Venture Star above such a masterfully rendered planet is just beautiful
It's the first time I have ever seen a tractor engine arrangement on a spacecraft, it makes perfect sense.
Just such a brilliant scene.
It is most likely NOT a tractor engine arrangement. This would bathe the cargo in the ships exhaust. The spaceship will have reversed during the trip, using the engines to decelerate in order not to overshoot their target.
@@MPostma72 I looked up the documentation for the official 'lore' on the ship. It is a tractor setup, the engines are raked by a few degrees to keep the hull clear of the exhaust. The fractional loss of thrust is offset by the large reduction of mass needed for a vessel under tension instead of compression.
A great idea, though I am sure there are other problems that would arise.
The ship landing scene from the new movie gives me euphoria
Because you are a Human chauvinistic imperialist just like me. 😂 Death to all blue monkey inhabiting on Pandora.
One of the best movies ever
Everything that made Avatar a 10/10 movie, sadly lacked in the secound movie.
So far the best science fiction movie released in the history of human kind, cant wait for avatar 2 in 2022
This is one of the most realistic depictions of life aboard a spaceship since 2001: A Space Odyssey. Crew members would indeed float around all over the place. Artificial gravity would be nice, but it's largely artistic license in most science fiction.
Give it afew more centuries , itll be real enough.
This scene was such a great start to the movie. I actually completely forgot about it from the first time I watched it
I love this intro because it feels grand, mysterious, immersive and realistic at the same time. The way the spaceship and the interior is designed, the score, the planet, it sets the right tone early, like you're part of this journey entering Pandora, a whole new world with actual intelligent beings.
I want to live in a time when fast travels over many light years is a reality. Such a immensely interesting opportunity would most likely give me the definition of self-fulfilment.
boost up the gellar shields to 75%, fire up the engines, tear the extra-dimensional hole through the immaterium. full thrust forward.
"sir, the shields dropped to 45%"
may the Emperor preserves us.
"they are coming through sir, they are everywhere!"
fight back men! the horrors of the warp shall not take us today! The Emperor protects!!
"they are all dead, sir. the crew is all dead!!"
by the Throne, I can hear them, they are inside my head!! by Terra, they are peeling off my skin, my bones are on fire!!
... So what's your point?
@@Sandman1x1 He is referencing Warhammer 40K, an universe where those fast travels over many light years are literally like going through the depths of Hell.
More like an extraordinary opportunity for breathtaking, paradigm shifting discoveries without end.
Only one thing bothers me about this scene - in the very first shot of the ISV Venture Star as it approaches camera, the ship appears to oriented the wrong way - the engine nozzles are pointing away from Pandora which is the orientation it would have under acceleration away from Earth - and yet it is clearly on final approach to Pandora, at which point the engines should be pointing towards it after flip over and deceleration. Indeed when we see it at 1:37 it's all of a sudden facing the correct way! Amazing design work anyway though!
thankyou! that drives me nuts
Yes. THIS! It’s been bugging me for months since TWOW came out and I rewatched the first movie
ya i also mentioned years back. apparently the ship turns but isnt shown in the movie
Damn they haven’t discovered lightspeed yet
It’s happening! We’re finally getting Avatar 2 on Dec of 2022
Bro this movie came out 2009,and has the best cgi like, every hater just hates it because they either didn't watch it or the way or just jealous.
This movie was so awesome to watch in the cinemas
This scene reminds me of the old sailing ships before the 20th century. Out in the ocean for months or years. Sometimes never coming back.
The ending in Avatar where humans leave Pandora, you just knew they are coming back with all the military might
I hope they bring nukes this time around
@@after_midnight9592 The fun thing is the time passing between the first and the second movie is the same as the time the Venture Star takes to get to Earth and back to Pandora.
A forgotten sci-fi, but still one of the best movies made!
It's all coming back to them now (in December
End Game is good, but Avatar is a masterpiece to me!
This ship seems peaceful in this film, but in the second film? It's terrifying.
Yep
In 2nd movie ISV better than in 1st
Im so excited for avatar 2
This movie was so ahead of its time!
The fact that these came back and did some things just shows how much time, effort, planning, preparation had to be made for Avatar 2.
Ps. I'm talking about the scene where some big happens, and things just start right away.
Love that scene at 1:15 imagine getting introduced to this new world solely by its reflection. Brilliant, James Cameron!
The best of best science fiction film beginning of the millennium 🥺❤️
Man what a movie
I hope this movie got a sequel
If anyone wonders what they say at 1:42, they say "Valkyrie 1-6, Copy Mr. Ammen. Valkyrie 1-6, you are clear for de-orbit burn at 2-2-4-niner. Copy Venture Star. Go for de-orbit burn at 2-2-4-niner."
(At the beginning they address one of the pilots; I got his Name from the German audio so I am not entirely sure how to write it. But I thought "Ammen" was more likely than "Amen"; but it's still not everything they say. But I honestly can't figure it out and that pisses me off).
I just really wanted to know what they say cause just can't understand $h1t if you don't listen to it REALLY listen to it.
this still the badass movie cgi I ever watch
For some reason this sequence always reminds me of Evochron Legacy. So captivating and beautiful.
That BGM is on another level. James Horner was a legend
I can't wait to see Avatar 2
I don't care what anyone says. This movie was f*cking incredible.
I forgot almost everything of what happened in this movie. Time to rewatch it.
Before you even see the planet, the music lets you know this place is dangerous. Such a great scene.
