The most compelling reason to return to Pandora isn\u2019t just the movie\u2019s stunning visuals, new characters, and dramatic plot. It\u2019s the beautiful pro-family message woven into the film\u2019s storyline. <\/p>\n<p><em>Spoilers ahead<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Way of Water\u201d Nearly two decades have passed since the end of the first movie. Jake and Neytiri are raising four beautiful children in the forests of Pandora, and they\u2019re happy. <\/p>\n<p>Neteyam, the couple\u2019s oldest child, is well on his way to inheriting his father\u2019s leadership position. Kiri, adopted by Jake and Neytiri after she was born to the Na\u2019vi clone of Dr. Grace Augustine, is curious, spiritual, and nurturing. Lo\u2019ak, the youngest son, is adventurous to a fault. Tuktirey, the Sully family\u2019s youngest daughter, is playful and follows her family around religiously. <\/p>\n<p>Also present for most of the Sully family\u2019s daily life is Miles \u201cSpider\u201d Socorro, human son of enemy No. 1, Col. Quaritch. Spider is the first to be referred to Jake by the name of a \u201cstray cat\u201d for his constant presence with Na\u2019vi. Jake, however, calls Spider &#8220;Spider&#8221; at the end of the film. \u201cson.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The movie begins with the following: \u201chappiness is simple\u201d for tight-knit Sullys and their Na\u2019vi community. \u201cSullys stick together,\u201d Family members often recite the same words.<\/p>\n<p>However, happiness quickly fades when there is no one to remind you of it. \u201csky people\u201d return to Pandora with hopes of permanently establishing a metro that can house the dying Earth\u2019s population.<\/p>\n<p>The film\u2019s political overtones are not lost on the audience. James Cameron, director <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/james-cameron-yes-avatar-political-12929\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">self-professed tree hugger<\/a>, isn\u2019t shy about the messages he\u2019s trying to send through a story about a trigger-happy U.S. government waging war on foreign people to secure lucrative resources and land. <\/p>\n<p>If you can look past Cameron\u2019s anti-colonizer and \u201csave the planet\u201d You will however find a film with heartwarming messages that reinforces the strength and stability of traditional family life.<\/p>\n<h2>Strong Head of the Household <\/h2>\n<p>None \u201cThe Way of Water\u2019s\u201d Without Jake, the pro-family message wouldn&#8217;t have been possible. <\/p>\n<p>Not only does Jake go out of his way to lead his tribe, but he also works hard to lead his family, love his wife, and teach and discipline his children \u2014 especially his naive son Lo\u2019ak. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cA father protects. It\u2019s what gives him meaning,\u201d Jake:<\/p>\n<p>This is the best pro-family component. \u201cThe Way Of Water\u201d It highlights the joys that come with being a wife and a mother. Regardless of the dire circumstances that plague Pandora\u2019s people, pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood are celebrated.<\/p>\n<p>Truth be told, Jake\u2019s impressive leadership is only possible with the help of his loyal wife Neytiri, who supports him even when she has doubts. She is a good mother, teacher, and listens to her kids well. Neytiri is a similar Jake and does all she can to help her family return to safety when they are in danger. <\/p>\n<h2>Sacrifice Is Key<\/h2>\n<p>The demands of society are a dominant force in our society \u201cself-love\u201d And cursed by the trend to cut the ties that bind over petty disputes. \u201cThe Way of Water,\u201d In contrast, it promotes \u201cdying to self\u201d For the preservation of relationships with even the most difficult family members. <\/p>\n<p>This is evident when Jake gives up his leadership position and pride in order to move his family away from Col. Quaritch&#8217;s henchmen. This wasn\u2019t a selfish decision. It was a necessary and difficult change to divert the enemy\u2019s attention away from the Na\u2019vi. <\/p>\n<p>Later, when the Sully family\u2019s newfound oceanic life with the Metkayina tribe is discovered and the children are taken hostage, Jake agrees to trade his life for the safe return of his kids. <\/p>\n<p>Jake isn\u2019t the only one who surrendered his desires for the greater good. To respect her husband\u2019s decision to protect their family, Neytiri leaves behind the only land and people she had ever known with little verbal protest. Her children, similarly, leave behind their possessions, power, and friends \u2014 including the captured Spider \u2014 to save their family. <\/p>\n<p>Neteyam, specifically, repeatedly sacrifices his good standing with his parents to cover for his younger brother Lo\u2019ak\u2019s recklessness. In the end, Neteyam dies from a bullet wound he took while selflessly trying to rescue Spider from the clutches of Pandora\u2019s human enemies. <\/p>\n<p>In perhaps the most surprising and sacrificial twist of all, Spider puts aside his anger and bitterness about Col. Quaritch\u2019s sins against the Na\u2019vi to save the clone of his father. The two are far from reconciled by the end of the movie, but Spider\u2019s decision to rescue the antagonist from a burning ship reaffirms the message that blood is thicker than water. <\/p>\n<p>Cultivating a healthy marriage and family isn\u2019t easy, and the latest \u201cAvatar\u201d installment didn\u2019t sugarcoat the marital tension, sibling squabbles, and life challenges that can strain relationships like the Sullys\u2019. These experiences show that family bonds can be strengthened, strengthened, and built on faith.<\/p>\n<p>Just like water. \u201chas no beginning and no end,\u201d Familial love is not the same.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>\n Jordan Boyd is a staff writer for The Federalist.
