YOU DIDN'T LIKE AVATAR? TOO BAD, HERE'S TWO EVEN LONGER SEQUELS WITH THE EXACT SAME PLOT

Overview

A meme featuring a portrait photograph of James Cameron, the director of the Avatar film series. The image has bold white text overlaid at the top and bottom. The top text reads 'YOU DIDN'T LIKE AVATAR?' and the bottom text states 'TOO BAD, HERE'S TWO EVEN LONGER SEQUELS WITH THE EXACT SAME PLOT'. The meme humorously critiques the Avatar sequels for allegedly repeating the original plot while having longer runtimes, despite potential audience dissatisfaction with the first film.

Origin notes

The meme is sourced from 9Gag, as specified in the additional information. It is a user-created remix that repurposes a photograph of James Cameron, likely obtained from a public domain or promotional image, and adds text overlays to create a sarcastic commentary on the Avatar sequels. The creation method involves basic image editing to superimpose the text onto the portrait.

A split-screen meme consisting of two parts. On the left, two blue Na'vi characters from the Avatar movie are shown: one with long blonde hair is yelling aggressively while pointing at the other. Above this scene is the text 'You need to watch Avatar!'. On the right, the popular 'Smudge the Cat' meme character (a white cat with a blue lightning bolt on its head) sits unimpressed at a dining table with salad. Above this scene is the text 'I did'. The humor lies in the contrast between the Na'vi's intense insistence and Smudge's skeptical, unconvincing claim of having watched the movie, implying Smudge is lying.

A two-panel meme using screenshots from the 1969 Scooby-Doo cartoon. Top panel: Fred Jones (blonde, white shirt with orange ascot) holds a large ghost sheet labeled 'AVATAR FIRE AND ASH' over a bound character. Bottom panel: Fred holds a smaller ghost sheet labeled 'AVATAR THE WAY OF WATER 2' over the same bound character.

Bottom panel: Kitten with a disappointed expression, with the text 'not hehe' at the bottom. To the right, the text clarifies: 'It has nothing to do with Aang and it's full of fucking Smurfs'.

A meme image depicting a family of four (two adults and two children) sitting in red cinema seats, wearing 3D glasses, and holding popcorn buckets. The top text overlay reads: 'ME AND THE FAMILY WATCHING THE LATEST AVATAR FILM IN 4K WITH ENHANCED CGI SCENES IN AN AIR-CONDITIONED CINEMA LOCATED IN A WESTERN COLONIZED COUNTRY'. The bottom text overlay shows the family's reaction: 'HAHA, GET WRECKED YOU STOOPID HUMANS'. The humor stems from the irony of the family (likely from a Western colonized nation) enjoying the Avatar film— which critiques human colonization and exploitation— while mocking the 'humans' in the movie, highlighting a hypocritical disconnect.

A meme that humorously imagines Sam Worthington's career trajectory if James Cameron stops directing Avatar films. The top text reads 'Sam Worthington when James Cameron stops making Avatar movies:' followed by an image of a person wearing a dark apron with yellow trim, standing in a commercial kitchen and inspecting stainless steel equipment. The joke implies Worthington, known for his role as Jake Sully in the Avatar franchise, would need to take a blue-collar job (like kitchen work) without the steady Avatar roles.

This is a 4-panel comic meme. The first panel shows a smug cartoon corporate presentation character introducing a new film franchise. The second panel displays the official poster for the *Underworld* film franchise, featuring the lead vampire character Selene, played by Kate Beckinsale, holding two guns and presented as visually attractive. The third panel shows a second cartoon character asking what the plot of the new franchise is. The fourth panel cuts back to the presentation character, who smirks and replies "Plot?" This relies on a double meaning pun: "plot" refers both to the narrative story of a film, and is also internet slang for an attractive person's physique, implying the franchise's main selling point is the attractive lead rather than a well-written story.

A meme featuring a screenshot of Mr. Incredible (Bob Parr) from Disney/Pixar's 'The Incredibles' sitting at a breakfast table with a stern, intense expression. The text overlay at the top reads: 'When I'm enjoying a movie and then there's a scene where a random dog gets brutally murdered for no apparent reason (it's not even relevant to the plot of the movie)'.

This meme uses juxtaposition for comedic effect. The top text sets up a relatable scenario where an average consumer gives gentle, constructive criticism of a multi-billion dollar media company's show or movie, stating they found the characters bland and the plot overly basic. The lower section uses a screenshot from the 2019 satirical film *Jojo Rabbit*, where the child protagonist yells an aggressive, hostile insult at an off-screen character, representing the vastly disproportionate angry response the large media company gives to the minor negative feedback.
