Default Physical attraction to Na'vi

This was mentioned on IRC recently, and I was thinking about it...

The Na'vi are perfect. Physically, they're everything people want, from their queue and the real deep connection that gives them as a result, to their perfect blue skin... They also have an ideal philosophy, such as how they don't hide their bodies like humans do, going for the minimum that is actually protection, the body shouldn't be something to be ashamed of like humans are conditioned to be... They have such beautiful eyes, those ears, and of course a tail... There are so many amazing things that would be done with a tail, it makes me sad we don't have them...
The Na'vi are perfect physically as well as in how they live, and I would give anything to be like them...

Default Physical attraction to Na'vi

They don't seem to be perfect mentally. They have many human traits, such as jealousy and also act without thinking of the consequences when the navi fighting the humans even when they were warned that could not beat them in that situation (I know other factors were at play here, with jakes betrayal). They may be harmonious but are quick to react in situations. Neytiri would have killed jake if it wasn't for eywas sign after all...

Perhaps, but I don't see that as a bad thing, especially not when fighting the humans to protect everything...

Sadly the Na'vi aren't perfect and JC made that so there could be a movie. Physically, they're ideal but not perfect, their values are ideal but not perfect and their morals are ideal but again, not perfect.

Sorry to be overly critical, it's more of a clarification than a correction.

The Na'vi are beautiful even though thay are 10 feet tall and have a tail. In my opinion the reason why we think they're beautiful is because the na'vi look like creatures from a beautiful painting. Also I agree with you HMN, their not afraid to show their body unlike Humans to show their physical beauty.

Yeah but have you seen the other Na'vi? They aren't the most attractive. Not in comparison to Neytiri or Jake.

Intentional for the movie.

JC didn't want them stealing the spotlight from the main characters.

Exactly which is why Neytiri and Jake are really the only [imo] attractive Na'vi. lol

Believe me: NOTHING IS PERFECT.

I agree with Dreaming on that part.
No offense, but what I see is a Human who is ashamed of he's body and wishes he had another, of a fictional species. I know, sad but true.

It's common for a Human to dream up something 'perfect' in their eyes, (i have many times) it just so happens that the big JC showed his vision to the world.

AND, Na'vi are like humans in several ways in their ideals:

1: They protect their interests fiercely, even when under the odds.
2: They are rascist. Yeah, very racist. To humans that is. I don't see the Na'vi trying to make peace. Do you?
3: Big community. Well, they're not the same now, but think about old times. Like the American Indians, and Medievil Europe. (big families)
4: Monopoly over most of the planets resources. Come on, that's simple.

2: yes, i do. but it was before the schoolhouse incident. and before the humans started killing the forest.

4: what? isn't a monopoly owning stuff? the Na'vi don't think of themselves as owning anything. just borrowing from the forest.

2: they are not racist! humans attacked them before, so they are not exactly fond of their presence

4: in which way? they don't need unobtanium, and if you're talking about food (flora/fauna), they eats as much as the animals, there is balance, while on earth we are heavily overpopulated, hence the monopol on the resources

Hmmm...I'm confused. Are those Na'vi that go with Jake up Iknimaya just there to watch him? Or claim Ikran for themselves...

Well, look. They ARE the most dominant species on their planet. They, like any sentient species, would have more power over the resources than other animals.

And they are racist. As I said, I don't see the Na'vi trying to make peace. But their racism is acceptable, as the Humans are an otherworldly species.
I think it's because the Na'vi are a young species in the race of evolution. Plus, since they are only in their own clans, they wouldn't be AS tolerant to others who disrupt their secluded peace.

Lol. In my eyes, that girl to the immediate right of Jake is Peyral.
And if the girl to the immediate LEFT of Jake is Ninat, well... BRING BACK THE LOVE!

Yet they don't abuse that as humans do.

You couldn't be more wrong. they are defending their world from the humans, yet they accept that not all are necessarily bad, even if it take them some time.
Evolutionarily, they are far more advanced than humans.

I agree that the Na'vi are perfect physically... Humans just aren't so interesting.
