Critics, journalists, and more are back from their first visit to Pandora in over a decade, and they have plenty to say in their first reactions to Avatar: The Way of Water<\/em><\/strong>. The movie is James Cameron<\/strong>‘s long-awaited return to the world he built in the highest-grossing movie of all time, and it looks to set the groundwork for a potential franchise based around Jake (Sam Worthington<\/strong>), Neytiri (Zoe Saldana<\/strong>), and their family’s exploits on the foreign planet.<\/p>\n Set over 10 years after the original movie, the new adventure will take Jake and his family across parts of Pandora audiences have never seen before all in the name of finding safe haven. With the RDA redoubling its mining efforts on the planet, they look for a way to keep their family together as well as fight back against the encroaching threat. Trailers so far have showcased some absolutely stunning vistas as the franchise takes to a new, aquatic region. Despite the changes, Cameron aims to reinforce the original film’s themes with The Way of Water<\/em>focusing heavily on familial connections.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
