My guess is that theres an evil Na'vi tribe and they bring him back using the tree of life. This is kind of like my sequel idea, they bring him back into another body, but you never know its him in the body until the end for a plot twist.

Thats an ingenious idea :)

MP: So I know your character doesn't make it in the end, but...
SL: Don't be too sure.
This says it all. I think this is a pretty cool concept for the sequel if it makes the cut.

Most credible evidence right know is flashbacks. If he can make lang come back into the present without it seeming corny go for it.

Well, the only way this is gonna happen is if theres another evil person. He can't come back by himself.

Even though I did resent him during the film he makes a great bad guy.

The actor did such a great job with that... because aren't you supposed to resent the bad guy? It'd be kind of neat to see him return.

Nice find. I mean, the part about Quaritch's possible return is great but I also liked how they talked some about his backstory. It did kind of put him into a different light though I still cheer at is death in the movie :)

Thats something I have not thought about. I think it would be cool to have him become a Na'vi. If he did get turned into a Na'vi though he would be seeing everything Jake saw. More so he would resent everything he did, not making much for a villain. Still though, would be interesting to see.

I don't know, if he came back as a Na'vi it might not change anything. He might be so resentful of them still, considering how he died, that he refuses to see things as the Na'vi do.

Oh wow, awesome read man, thanks for the sweet link, it's good to see someone actually interview Stephen Lang, most of the stuff out there is with either Cameron, Worthington, Saldana, or Weaver.

Yeah but if he did come back as a Na'vi there's a possibility that he wouldn't be the antagonist still but I couldn't really see him any other way. And I doubt he could just come back randomly, someone would have to help him or get his spirit or whatever

Well, considering they have the technology to make avatar bodies, why not make a whole human body? I think they are going to clone him.

What if it turns out that he never really died though? I mean the two arrows in his chest did look pretty convincing but I've seen other movies where I thought a character had died but it turned out later that he hadn't.

Yea if it had only been two arrows I would have been skeptical but they are dipped in a neurotoxin that will stop your heart in a minute.

True, that probably would've done it

I'm pretty sure I remember him putting on a breathing mask once the air got in throgh the broken glass

unless he gets brought back from an evil tribe who are sworn enemies to the omiticaya and even if he sees the forest as a native he still wants to kill them..especially jake

Bringing him back just doesn't seem like a good idea. I mean, if he wanted to I am sure JC could pull it off but all the scenarios I could think of just don't really work out.

In the original Scriptment Grace survives, so im thinking if anyone comes back it would be her. In the scrimptment her human body dies, her lover (a Na'Vi named N'deh) carries off her avatar and keeps it alive. Later when Josh (Jake) comes back to begin gathering tribes and gives the passionate speach to the Na'Vi, Grace (in her avatar body) comes out and congratulates him. You think she's dead but there she is, so I think if anyone comes back it will be her.

there's a LOT of different possibilities on how to do sequels...just hope he chooses the right one and doesnt go off the wall that makes all the fans go WTF

I agree 100%. It would be ao very sad to wait 3 or so years for this movie and having such high expectations, to have him drop the ball. But lets try to think positive thoughts, maybe it will help him out.

ya i agree. If JC decides to revive Quaritch, Grace should be able to be revived.

RELEASE THE CLONES, I NEED REINFORCEMENTS NOW!!
Judge Dread :)
The issue with cloning Quaritch is that he would be a relatively blank clone, it would be cool if his clone turned out to be a good guy in the end and helped Na'Vi. Alternatively perhaps the Quaritch with all the scares was a clone being the real Quaritch the driver, that would explain why he didn't really care about going back to earth, maybe because he already had something backed up in-case **** hit the fan.
In saying that I don't think he would play a major role in the sequels, I mean we have kinda been there done that and kicked his arse. A repeat would just be insulting to the character, kinda like as if JC ran out of script ideas.

Speaking of T2, it was a twist not a whole lot of people saw coming but the Terminator became the savior, now I'm not saying Quaritch will come back as a robot or something lol, but what if he came back as a good guy? If JC does intend to have him come back, Its definitely a possibility

The invasion force from Earth perhaps will be crushed with the help of Quaritch whom for some reason hasn't got the angry aggressive history of his former real self since he is a clone. He sacrifices himself by destroying something critical to the invasion force saving Pandora in a unlikely twist of events and ultimately putting the humans in a jam. Perhaps they migrate to another moon.. who knows. Perhaps he is seen as the bad guy at the start but in the end kinda goes awal... you know like on that animated series called The Battle for Terra Prime or something, the captain kinda makes a last second decision to turn against his own people or at least the ones leading them (military captain).
it could work, but a sudden reintroduction of 'hey I'm back and I'm on your side suddenly' probably won't work. Needs element of surprise and some cool twist of events at a crucial time of the movie when something needs to happen or Pandora is doomed.

wouldnt it be trippy if quaritch's essence was put into tsu'tey's body...so the clan members praised his revival, only to realize later on its their enemy
