While it was released in 2009, Avatar remains the highest-grossing film of all time. In this episode, we dig into the full production history behind Pandora, including Cameron's decade-long wait for technology to catch up with his vision, the creation of the Na'vi language, and the casting process that almost gave us a very different film. Then we break down the entire film, from Jake Sully's transformation to the destruction of Hometree and whether Eywa's intervention in the final battle is earned or a convenient ending. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/YlvyC6BVZyZYvAyS26mUuU1b9hMzsC1OJo6lqPmrX6A/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zZTdl/MzQ0ZTE0YjU2ODRi/YjU5NTg5ZmI5M2E2/NTMxYi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
