Fun fact: James Cameron finished the screenplay for this movie in the 90s. He waited 10 years to make it because the technology he needed to make the visuals he imagined didn’t exist yet.

Dylan: *Gets smug for predicting a movie he's already seen *

and here we are 16 years later, getting the second movie

dylan: sequels can take up to 4 years avatar 2: COMES OUT 13 YEARS LATER

2009... 2019 Dylan: iT's AlReAdY BeEn SiXtEeN yEaRs!

“iTs bEeN sIxTeEn yEaRs!” “Does spit have DNA in it? I don’t know, I’m not a botanist” dylan i’m worried

Story wise it’s very basic but the world building is absolutely amazing. Every details of the world are well thought out and the cgi just doesn’t get old. Also let’s remember it came out in 2009, it was waaaay ahead of its time

I watched Avatar The Way Of Water yesterday in theatres, and honestly, it was so worth the wait. It was so incredibly well made. Those three hours went by so quickly, I didn't even notice. Totally recommend. It's also one of the very rare situations where the sequel is better than the first movie.

Dylan:” Avatar one came out in 2009. It’s 2019. ITS BEEN 16 YEARS!” Me: obviously.

"It's already been 16 years" *Math has left the chat*

No-one: Absolutely no one: Not a single soul: Dylan: I’ve gOt a LASeR Me: calm down Luke Skywalker

*Dylan:* /gasps/ "For LIFE?? You got MARRIED, homie!"

“It’s already been 16 years” ummm math where you at?

Just watch the 'its been 16 years' become the greatest meme of all time...

Unpopular opinion time: I have always thought that this movie is the *perfect* example of how you can take the most cliche story arcs, and STILL turn them into masterpieces of art, with the right director and the right filmmakers. YES, everyone knows the plotline of the protagonist having a change of heart and switching sides. YES, everyone is familiar with the protagonist changing because of love. YES, everyone has seen the money-and-power-seeking military leader villain before. But you can either describe those plotlines and story arcs as "cliche"... or as foundational. Classic. Timeless. Well-known *AND well-loved.* It all depends on how good the rest of the movie is, and how well it WORKS with those classic story arcs. And I will *always* stand by the opinion that this movie captured that flawlessly, and is a classic and *gorgeous* movie. There, I've said my peace. *Somebody* had to give an opinion from the *perspective* of a story-teller.

When Dylan said Jake didn’t have to prove himself, I always understood that when the little glowing seedlings landed on him was their god approving of him in front of Naitiri

The confidence with which he says 16 honestly had me questioning my addition skills 😂😂😂

Dylan 2 seconds into the movie: *It's a misdirect*

Seriously can’t wrap my head around the fact that this movie was made in 2009. The visuals were so fucking ahead of its time.

"ITS BEEN 16 yEars!" why is no one talking about how in James Cameron' s titanic, Dylan kept on quoting " its been 84 yeArs"

Dylan refusing to acknowledge the fact that he's as tall as the Na'vi for 30 minutes straight

I feel like Dylan is legit the same height as the Natives of Pandora

In honor of the “it’s been 16 years” they are FINALLY releasing the second one. It’d be interesting to see Dylan do that once it’s available. I don’t think he has ever really done sequels/prequels on his channel besides Maleficent.

In the extended version they actually do bang by connecting their hair

"All limbs, no ass" is the perfect way to describe Dylan

I love watching this channel cause I finally found someone whose math is worse than mine.

Fun fact: my primary school teacher was an extra in a few shots of this movie

I have a fun fact about this movie that I learnt in film school. James Cameron told the production company that he would need a huge ass budget for this movie ($240 million), and told them it would be a one-off. The movie made so much revenue at the box office that Cameron pulled out from 20th Century Fox and was able to fund the remaining four Avatar movies out of his back pocket. At least that's what my film tutor told me and it's the one fact I bring out when talking about Avatar, so I gotta bring it up here

I guess I’m 6 years too early for this movie commentary

Avatars: are blue Dylan: choses green light Me: UGHHH..WHAT THE FU-

So excited to see Dylan's reaction to the 2nd movie!

Just came back from seeing the second one in theaters It's just gorgeous

Literally the ONLY time you would expect him to use the blue light for a movie about blue people where most of the color scheme is centered around the color blue...he chooses GREEN of ALL COLORS!!! Love you lots anyway... edit - thanks for the likes! Literally everyone says that but this never rlly happens so thanks!!!

Me, a 16 year old born in 2003, hears 2009 was 16 years ago: 😮

So... yesterday I somehow saw "news" on the second avatar movie, they said it took so much because J Cameron wanted again to revolutionize the film making industry and decided to work on new techniques of shooting in the water and under, they built multiple underwater sets and trained the actors to hold their breath for a prolonged period of time. I am curious to see the movies :)

"don't call it a b*tch, you're a b*tch" Dylan standing up for the animals' rights

Everyone: talks about there being 16 years between 2009 and 2019 Me: thinks about how he said there was only 4 years between 2005 and 2012

“We are mated for life.” “For LIFEE? You got married homie!”

The amazing thing is not only the plot, scenery, prosthetics, gc, etc but the fact that they MADE a language for this movie. It’s honestly so cool

I liked Avatar, and it kinda breaks my heart every time people go way too hard on it. It is almost fashionable to hate it at this point.

*"Avatar was in 2009 and not it's 2019 it's been 16teen years"* Maths of Dylan

1:11 "It's already been 16 years??" oh Dylan..

Fun fact: My brother looks exactly like the blue creature of the main character... with the exception that he’s not blue.

15:22 wish he watched the full cut. He complains about lack of character development and that they dont show him hunting from the air where literally in the full cut they show both of those things. Iike showing graces connection more with the Na'vi by showing us her school and some extra dialogue cut out. The hunting scene Jake and Tsu tey were the only ones that actually killed animals while flying showing both jakes skills increasing and showing the relationship between them mature. The extra 15 mins or so in the full cut is worth the watch

no one: Dylan: I HAVE A LASER TO LIGHT MY CANDLES

Anyone else think it would be hilarious if he did a barbie marathon?

yes i am watching this video instead of rewatching the 1st avatar movie before going to see avatar 2 😂

Dylan: "PETA does not support this movie" Me after seeing the 2nd movie: "definitely not 😅😭"

James Cameron: "This character's name is Tsu'tey" Dylan: "2ChAinZ"

Dylan: "I'm good at math" Also Dylan: "It came out in 2009. Now it's 2019. IT'S BEEN 16 YEARS!!!" The worst part is I don't know if it's a joke or if you're serious there.

The extended addition actually gives you those hunting from above scenes and more back story lol, and the finger thing lol, they were grown mixed with human DNA so that might be why he has 5 😂

This coming up for me now when the sequel is out 💀

Not even one second in the movie Dylan: IT'S A MISDIRECT.

“Does spit have DNA in it? I don’t know, I’m not a botanist” is most Michael Scott thing I’ve heard from Dylan

this was my Gramas favorite movie so it holds a very special place in my heart. she would quote it all the time. i wish she were still here so we could watch the sequels together.❤️

The funniest thing is that the main character wouldn’t be able to light a match in that world couse it doesn’t have oxygen.

avatar came out 10yrs ago. not 16. that really tripped me up for some reason😂😂

Two things I realized after watching this video: 1. I completely forgot everything to do with this movie since the first time I watched it. 2. Re-Watching old movies with Dylan’s commentary has become my favorite routine.

That pissing line is based on an old saying: "Don't piss on my leg and try to tell me it's raining." Or plenty of variations with the same meaning.. it basically means being treated poorly and being gas lighted into thinking it's for your benefit. Like when companies tell you that an expensive bundle is to save you money... it's a good deal.. even if you don't want the phone or cable, you just want internet... but for only 100$ more you get 20,000 channels! It's a good deal! That sorta thing.. It basically means being swindled or convinced to accept something shitty as a blessing.

watching it just before going to the cinema to see Avatar 2, I CANNOT WAIT

Dylan being so extra that he has a laser to light his candle 😂

Dylan uploading a movie commentary on a Monday and not on a Sunday is terrifying *cries in fear*

watching this before i go watch avatar 2 and i thought 15:06 was a segway into an audible commercial LMAO i was waiting for it but it never came

i'm pretty sure the original purpose of the avatar bodies was just to make doing science stuff on pandora easier

Every native in the film: Tsu'tey Dylan: *2 CHAINZ*

No one: Literally no one: Not even Flynn Rider: Dylan: I got a laAAAAAAZEER

There's so many deleted scenes, which is why it seems fast and like ironic, buuut it actually makes sense when you watch the deleted scenes, and that's why the mom is so open to him being around, she's also the spirit guide of the people, so she's just wise like that, and knows who to trust.

The extended version shows him hunting from the sky and a whole bunch of stuff that would've made the original way better

Dylan: "2009" "2019" "16 years" Me: ...Am I having a stroke??

Dylan: “he likes long walks on the beach” Jake: *literally can’t walk* 11:05

I honestly don’t understand the hate for this movie. I loved it as a kid and I still love it today. Sure, maybe it’s not as nuanced as 9 year old me thought it was, but visually it was a masterpiece, and the story (though many say it’s just space Pocohantas) was genuinely very interesting to me and I still fondly remember so many scenes in this movie. I’m so excited to finally be getting the sequel this year.

My favorite part in Avatar was where she sang "The Colors of the Wind".

24:07 "i've been watching too many Disney movies..." Avatar: *also a Disney movie*

No one: Dylan: I USE A LASER TO LIGHT MY CANDLES

NOOOO dylan you missed it bc disney plus cut it out but they do connect hairs😭😭😭

"Why are u like: ahh, he's pulling my hair" they mate with the hair... connect to animals, trees and another... I don't think it feels like hair to them

Avatar is just Pocahontas with blue people.

Dylan: complains about the guy having a match instead of something cooler. Also Dylan: Is impressed that a robot has a rear view mirror.

not dylan saying it takes 4 years to make a sequel and its been 13 YEARS!!!!!! and now it is out WATCH IT!! T SO GOOD Avatar: the way of water

You need to react Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and Jumanji: The next level! Those movies are sick!! So cool!

He thought avatar came out 3 YEARS AGO I’M SORRY WHAT

Dylan in 2019: sees avatar was released in 2009 Also Dylan: "It's been 16 years!!" Me: Questions my entire elementary math education

My favorite line of the whole movie “EYWA HEARD YOU!” gives me goosy bumps

"I forgot about it for years but then I remembered that Avatar, the giant international blockbuster used the Papyrus font as it’s logo. He just highlighted Avatar, he clicked the drop down menu and then he randomly selected Papyrus. Like a thoughtless child just wandering by a garden yanking leaves along the way."

Dylan casually saying daddy and laughing is my favorite thing

"Gonna watch Avatar." "Blue people or Airbender?" "Blue people." "Oh, okay." How all my conversations went after this movie came out 😁

27:51 "you can literally just grab his head and, like, pop it" me: lock it polka dot it *i hate myself*

28:47 even in Avatar 2 they ended the movie with him opening his eyes😭😭😭😭😭 full circle

dylan: watches a movie from ten years ago. also dylan: ItS bEeN 16 yEaRs

Anthony mackie: i studied math in high school. Dylan: on your left.

I was watching this video and then I left, my computer shut down, adn when I opened it again I had Dylan's judging face looking at me "24:27

It’s a shame what happened with the soundtrack of this movie...it was supposed to be this never before heard fusion of native sounds and songs from all over the world but they scrapped the whole research and development for something that "sounds native" but familiar enough to an American audience

Did anyone else notice Dylan’s new glasses or is it just me ? Looking good Dylan as always 🤤

“He’s a man now and what men do?, they kiss “

23:50 literally wtf 😅

When he said 16 years it aged me 6 additional years I'm 47 now

Avatar was so revolutionary for its time People who say it’s overrated probably don’t remember the cultural impact

Dylan: so I did my research *opens Wikipedia* Bro so relatable lmao

I wish he could do Coraline *Also now I want sour patch kids T^T*

I haven’t watched the regular length version so I can’t tell what Dylan is cutting out cause of length and what he just isn’t seeing because of the shorter version of this film. I think the longer version might explain stuff that he missed but I still love this movie for what it is. I really enjoy watching it❤
