Dances with Smurfs: Avatar Parody Comic
Dialogue
Overview
A four-panel comic parodying James Cameron's Avatar. Panel 1: A blue, Na'vi-like humanoid holds a plant and tells two human soldiers, 'WE USE THIS FOR HAVING SEX.' Panel 2: The same blue character stands next to a blue horse-like creature (resembling Avatar's direhorse) and adds, 'WE ALSO STICK IT IN OUR ANIMALS,' smiling. Panel 3: The two soldiers look at each other with neutral expressions. Panel 4: Large robotic exoskeletons (parodying Avatar's AMP suits) fire weapons, causing flames and destruction in the forest.
Origin notes
The comic originates from 9Gag with the original title 'Dances with smurfs,' a pun combining 'Dances with Wolves' and 'Smurfs' (referencing the blue color of the Na'vi). It features the watermark 'STONETOSS.COM,' indicating creation by the artist Stonetoss. The content parodies the 2009 film Avatar, exaggerating interactions between Na'vi-like characters and human soldiers to satirize the movie's cultural conflict themes, culminating in a violent, humorous escalation.
