I watched Avatar 1 & 2 over the past week. I'm in the minority, I don't get they hype for this series. It has some cool elements and spectacular visuals, but the plot is very lacking and they drag it out over 3+ hours. The humans have no redeeming quality and the Na'vi culture is a very indulgent visual spectacle. Yes, you can very much compare this to a Dances With Wolves type story, or the Empire fighting the Ewoks. That's basically all it is.
