But hes not the Colonel. Quaritch is a new man. He has a new soul so to speak. I cant wait to see this younger, taller, bluer Quaritch grow as a character
I don't trust him, Palpatine came back and he was a total piece of shit and ruined the whole galaxy and killed all the Jedi just like the original did.
Avatar 2 made like a dozen pararells between Jake and Na'vi Quaritch. It was good idea in my opinion. Cameron understood if he is to bring back our beloved villain, than it is really time for character development.
I agree with this comment except for the beloved part. I despised him in the first film. He was way more interesting and sympathetic in the second one though.
I like how he doesn’t question himself on how he’s now the same height as a Navi after waking up, he just to chooses violence, and not to mention whenever he throws punches after waking up, he doesn’t noticed that the skin of his arms has turned blue
I wanted to see more of the recoms identity experience, as Im sure life is not the same and they probably would spend more time between themselves than around humans
Quaritch was given a second chance at living, but almost wasted that due to his greedy need to get revenge on jake over something he started. But at the end hes slowly gaining some redeemtion thanks to his son spider
Something I noticed is that Lyle and a few other recombs are already dressed in their military garbs, implying that they were awakened before Quarich (obviously) this scene here is probably the reason why.
Jake betrayed the humans despite having to return to his human form every day - as a reminder of his origins - now the recoms are unable to go back to their human forms, their bodies decayed since - so the project is risky
@@degenetron7590 nah its not like that, If somehow in this future people can transfer consciousness to another species then certainly we can clone a person
That’s exactly what that reminds me of. Avatar is similar to Transformers in other ways too. Jake Sully is like Optimus Prime, both came from different planets and protect those different alien species from evil.
As a navi quaritch is more powerful and dangerous. Now he can bond with Eywa and all creatures on Pandora. Even if he is just a clone, he would be a demon with navi and military abilities combined, just like Jake.
Reincarnation was actually a good idea. It didn’t feel like a “cop out” move for the movie or franchise. It brought back a well known and respected villain without tainting his character.
I'd say they made this technological rebirth technique after Jake sully's brother died and left the highly expensive avatar behind. Had they developed this beforehand, it's possible the first movie wouldn't have happened at all and jake would have been wasting his life away on the dying earth as a disabled vet
Backup mind of soldiers on another planet and download them to body that is fully adapted makes (in my humble opinion) bigger sense than how Avatar project worked in first movie.
What I don't understand is why deepfake or CGI wasn't used to put the original version of Quartich into this video. He looks WAY older here than he did in the original, and it kind of breaks the 4th wall to have him looking like this in a video supposedly shot during the events of the first movie.
I find many similarities to transformers 4s galvatron to colonel .they where both reborn out of memories from the main antagonist by the antagonist's orders and want to kill the protagonist for what they have done
The main difference is that Galvatron was still Megatron and had the conscience of Megatron but in a different body. This version of Quaritch might have his memories, but is a separate being altogether.
I think the video must have been recorded after Jake & his friends escaped from the jail. Before that there was no pressing need to get revenge on Jake. Heck, they hadn't even jailed him before they destroyed Hometree.
No, it's right before the final attack. Since the general highlights jake sully as the main target, as in the jake that rides Tourouk and is the leader of all Na'vi resistance.
Anybody who throws this is "Palpatine returned" contrived. A) Resurrection via cloud memory and cloning was established lore as in fact what the Avatar program is derived off of. B) Lang and Cameron confirmed his return before JJ Abrams even had a script for episode 7. C) And speaking of Stars Wars, this more if Disney remained faithful to EU lore and incorporated the Dark Empire series into the films at the start.
You underestimate the colonel, he is a marine, totally willing to do whatever for his mission, he is the type of guy who likes to get the job done - I love the fact that he was this determined.
This storyline is so profound. It shows the dark depths of capitalism in this world. The managers/executives of the corporation thought that backing up Quaritch's soul was the most cost effective approach. He's a high value asset/investment, and like a responsible corporation, they decided to maximize their ROI, and their profits.
@@Hhunter12 We simply do not have Eywa which keeps us from fearing death and we have the natural urge to improve our lives in any way possible. With this premise, somewhat controlled capitalism remains the best form of large scale society. Luckily it seems like we will not even go much beyond 10 billion people though, so not as problematic as in the movies luckily.
So basically the humanity discovered immortality. If conscience and memories can be downloaded and uploaded into an avatar body, it means they might as well be uploaded into a human clone body. So everybody rich enough would practically stop dying.
Not really…they can COPY a conscience, so, when you die, the one waking up it’s someone else with all your memories, while the original conscience dies with you
Actually this movie is about whale hunting and in our world all countries are against whale hunting but only japan people not stoping whale hunting, director tried to show this in the movie, and he want to show how the people are there in current society, so this movie is worth to watch.
So I didn't watch the movie so I'm probably WAY off base but that machine they used to torture Spider? That's some kind of brain-mapping device? It's possible that the mind copy is a single-use item and to make 50 Colonels they'd need to map his brain 50 times and as we have seen with Spider that stuff can be lethal. Also can you imagine the chain-of-command mess with 50 of him running around trying to order others around?
@@pauljordan0203 yes, especially because almost the whole RECOM squad was killed to easy and early. It reminded me of the decepticons from The Last Knight lol.

Miles Quaritch Human body expired. So how was his avatar body able to continue without his human body? Don’t the machines tap in the human nervous system?
Avatar is not conected to his original body but has backup file of colonel´s mind directly in it. Basicly human variation to how Jake´s mind was transformed in the end of first movie.

I know the humans were there. in a deleted scene I believe it was grace that said they were there for 30 years. my question is how did all this start. how did the humans find pandora. how did the humans get a hold of na'vi DNA to create avatars? there's so much could've been explained by printing books., or creating a website that explains all this information. everyrime Jake. norm or grace got into their machines they were able to operate their avatar. I bought the avatar collectors edition and I watch the extra 16 minutes version in that version you can see after Jake and neytiri beat quaritch neytiri is holding Jake while wearing the mask. then the next scene Jake's avatar is by tsu tey side. so does that mean neytiri put Jake back into his machine to operate his avatar.? at what point the humans can operate their avatar without their human body in the machine? why wasn't Jake able to do that from the beginning? eywa transferred Jake memories from his human body to his avatar body. how was the humans able to transfer like eywa? that should not be possible. I hope eywa uses all her power and evict those humans . you can just commandeer another species planet. humans had their chance kn earth and they blew it. it's not the na'vi problem earth is dying. it's sick and sad the lengths those humans are going even to disregard life and culture
