Movie was ahead of its time...so SJW that I'm surprised Cameron didn't hang himself to punish himself for being human (worse than being White)

I think the worst part was how little rule 34 there is.
I mean, its out there, but it feels so uninspired. Like no one really cared enough.
Its kinda sad compared to the massive avalanche of smut thats already out there for Zootopia

Is that supposed to be a bad thing?
Are they really complaining about Avatar not being memetic enough?

>>64536669
Would it be too wanky of me to say that it's a result of a changing society, with an ADHD attention span that's more than willing to spend money on stuff they don't retain?

I consume a metric fuckload of media and hardly retain any of it, and most of my friends are the same (I'm 22, so I'm not an oldfag). The younger people I know will heavily connect with a handful of franchises or films, but burn through so much media that a lot of it is forgotten. At the same time the franchises they 'love' have a huge online presence so they don't even need to retain anything from that.

Older generations are also more financially sound and more connected to pop culture than previous elderly generations, and resultantly have widened general target audiences.

Include the aforementioned hype marketing that is endemic today and how the internet can make people think that people are in their own 'niche' that they need to support when they're actually the mainstream audience (see: capeshit in popular media is still presented as niche, video games) and we're in a place and time in society were excess spending on entertainment is rampant, and the mass consumption is detrimental to the impact of said media

I think most of /tv/ is smart enough to know this already but whatever
Avatar is my mother's favourite movie.

My theory is that Neyteri and the rest of them just looked too humanoid.
The majority of r34 in existence is created by furfags, and if they're not into it.. generally it just doesn't happen.

Abatap was a pretty good meme desu

They're a 100% right. It's an empty spectacle with no redeeming qualities.

Star wars is a cultural mainstay for a reason.

Who /meme/ here?

You're new as Fuck if you think your age determines if you're an oldfag or not

And that reason is George Lucas.

Because Avatar was just part of Pocahontas' pop-culture footprint.
