Flashbacks

[Chelinka]

Will there be flashbacks in AVATAR, what do you guys think ?
I actually hope they show us a little bit more of Jake's life before he went to Pandora, I prefer pandora, but some earth scenes do look nice to me, and I hope they maybe show us some stuff from his marine time Maybe some flashbacks too from NeyNey and her sister.

Who knows... ^_^ There could be, but in my opinion it's hard to introduce flashback in this 'type' of film maybe... I don't know, I just think of it that way, maybe there will be a few, and if there are, I'm sure JC will make sure its all Well done personally, I hope I never see a glimpse of Earth, I'm trying to escape from it, I just want to see Neyney and Pandora, only!

I was thinking that maybe some flashbacks for when the avatars attacked the Hell's Gate tower would be pretty good.

I'm actually of the opinion of if they do show any flashbacks, it will be in the beginning of the movie, kinda like how they did with Terminator 2, another Cameron classic. I'm thinking they will, if they do, show a flashback to Jake's time as a Marine, kinda to show where he's coming from in a way. Flashbacks usually works best in the beginning of a movie rather than repeated throughout.

I agree Hufwe, as I said previously I think you either put them or not, otherwise it wouldn't be Avatar-like anymore. But the only place you could put some in is the beginning, like Jake at the bar and all the stuff at the beginning, which is really helpful, it tells us animals are being cloned already, humans wear masks because of so much pollution (already happening too :/) and tells us more about Jake's story. Still in my opinion, Avatar2 won't need much previous details or flashbacks, because if it'll be about Jake and Neytiri's future, we won't need to know the rest, the rest is sad, very sad only, because it's about evil humans and dead earth... :/ Anyway, JC will take care of it

Not really a flashback, but when Jake kneels before the Tree of Souls to warn Eywa about humanity, I picture Grace sitting on the root right in front of Jake.

how about a sequence where we see Eywa looking into Graces's memories? or a scene where Jake is now communicating with Eywa through the Tree of Souls,and she looks into his memories and mind?
