Kelsi and Trey discuss Avatar: Fire and Ash — a visually stunning, emotionally manipulative, and politically confused entry in James Cameron’s blockbuster franchise. They break down why the film’s spectacle still works, how its treatment of colonialism and “good settler” fantasy becomes increasingly muddled, and why the story isn’t actually about the Fire and Ash people at all. Along the way, they unpack the fandom, the franchise’s strange cultural footprint, and where Avatar might be headed next. New free Patreon members can check out bonus episodes below.
