The big bad Kahuna is back! In my opinion, it's a sweep at the Oscars. Sometimes divisive with critics but always pushing forward, James Cameron has often dragged the cinema kicking and screaming into the age of digital wizardry. His contributions to the medium have been legendary and repeatedly rewarded by audiences; he was adored by a burgeoning demographic in the 1980s and has regularly broken box office records since the release of Titanic in 1997.

Avatar 2 follows Jake Sully, and Neytiri throughout their lives. When marines return to seek revenge and use Pandora as a second Earth, the couple must flee their forest home and swim into the waters of a coastal tribe. There, they must learn to adapt to their new home as Colonel Miles Quaritch, cloned and in an avatar body, searches for their whereabouts. Instead of analyzing the obvious cultural similarities between the Māorians and the avatar Indigenous. I chose to concentrate on the technical aesthetic manifestation of 3-D VFX.

It is an impressively large and exceptionally long film, but one constant is unmistakably distracting: the high frame rate. Talented filmmakers such as Cameron, Ang Lee, Michael Bay, and Peter Jackson occasionally succumb to hubris in their pursuit of innovation and cutting-edge superficialities. Of course, with the help of our Polynesian CGI studio giant, WETA, based out of New Zealand, to smooth some rough editing in the cutting process.

To this end, the movie is incorporating much of the film to a higher frame rate , which is said to make them look more "realistic," a supposition I've understood as a filmmaker myself. Simply put, the trick of the trade. A manipulated frame rate, the most standardized metric in art, appears more natural to viewers accustomed to 3D layered surfaces than the previous analog rotoscoping standard.

As usual, the performances are outstanding. Unlike the original, there are few scenes in the film with real humans, so motion capture is forced to do the heavy lifting. Actors become voice actors, and Zoe Saldana musters genuine feeling without being seen. Avatar 2 is exactly what fans expected: an in-depth continuation of the original film in various locations. Congratulations, brother.

You did it again!
