...and post here with your reasons why.

I personally love The Avatars Attack - it's just completely fantastic IMHO, and shows that it wasn't just those 4 humans rebelling, but many others were, too, who saw the unjust nature of the whole thing (many of the complaints I heard about the film were about it portraying nearly humans as nothing but evil, ruthless bastards...) and Max giving them the finger is just priceless ;)



Please let me know if I've missed a poll option (I got this list just by skimming through the video file and stopping whenever I noticed a clip ending)

Wow....that's a hard one. :P I chose Dream Hunt because it would have been really cool fully rendered, and I know a lot of complaints about the movie (including my mom's) was that when Jake became one of the people it seemed out of place he didn't have to pass some sort of a test.

But it's a hard call..... :D

Very interested in the Na'vi interaction with their deity. I want to know why they knew there was a possibility Grace could live inher avatar and how they were sure Jake would be able to transfer to his.

Since I could only choose one, I chose dreamhunt.

My other favorites were The Eye of Eywa (I think this would have been cool had it been fully rendered) and The Avatars Attack.
2010 was the year of the Na'vi.Vivar 'ivong Na'vi!

This is a hard choice... I picked "were buying time" but it shows more of the progression of how jake is regretting what he's doing and going behind everyones back... the avatars attack was awsome I too loved max giving the finger


Carborundum

I chose "Neytiri kills Wainfleet", because it always bugged me that she got this awesome über-mount, only to have it get killed in the very next scene without really doing anything meaningful (OK, so she stalls Q for a few moments, still doesn't do the palulukan justice).

One scene I would not have wanted to see in the final cut is "the challenge". Jake kicking Tsu'tey's ass hand-to-hand style is much better IMO ;D

Yes, I really disliked the challenge, actually. It really didn't feel right, didn't fit in with the movie so well. :P

This for me as well.

My #1 choice is the dreamhunt, as it is something I could not have even speculated quite that quickly, unlike some of the other scenes (e.g. where Trudy meets Jake in the cafeteria).

My #2 choice is when Max and the Na'vi Avatars break into Hell's Gate and take over the OPS center.  Same amount of unexpectedness and awesomeness for me ;D

Voted for Dreamhunt, just because it adds alot to the story. But it's not a short one and if there is limited run-time, I'd replace it with some combination of other from this list.

Human No More

The Avatars Attack, closely followed by The Dream Hunt... I was disappointed they didn't get finished :(

Wow...this was a hard choice!  I went with The Escape because it explained so much (like how the heck Max had a key to the detention cell) but next in line would have been Avatars Attack, followed closely by going to the moutains/Norm's attitude improves, because I really thought it would have been good to have that relationship as a foil for Jake and Neytiri...oh...and I can't forget the party after the hunt...or uniltaron...  damn, too many good, important scenes! ::)

Arantele

I think the one they should have left in was "your a long way from earth"... Throughout the movie, selfridge is portrayed as someone who doesn't care about anything but the bottom line.. this scene (to me at least) shows his more humane side... and also shows quarritch's more evil side...

Nusumea Tirea

Well, that really is a hard one. If I could get away with it, I would put all of them in there.

But well, as I had to choose, I picked the Avatars Attack because that scene explains why some of them are staying (and why there are other ayuniltìrantokx are seen in the last scene where the sawtute are leaving).

My other favorites are The Eye of Eywa and the dreamhunt.

OME, that is like a mother choosing a favorite child hrh All the deleted scenes were interesting, almost all of them added more of the Omaticaya culture, and I would have loved to see all of it in the movie. Dreamhunt was very trippy, I loved it lol But also the hunt festival, and the rest of the scenes...idk I would want all of them. ;D

Kamean

I choose Dreamhunt because it was wery important and added more to the Na'vi spiritual culture. Also I like The Eye of Eywa and the Hunt Festival. But ideally would be include all of them. :D

In my opinion "You're a long way from Earth". It shows that Selfridge did not accept everything Quaritch was doing and tried to stop him.

Well, I couldn't make 2 votes, so I also voted for "You're a Long Way From Earth," but if I had a second choice, probably the DreamHunt.

Some of these deleted scenes were small snipets that I think would have been funny to add in, such as the infamous "Norm is a Living God" and "Going to the Mountains"

...Dreamhunt was very trippy, I loved it lol...

...and with all those trippy effects, it gets difficult to imagine what the final version of this scene would look like...

I wanted to vote twice but my vote went with "A new life" I think it would've been great used as a dream sequence Jake would have had, not only would he have wanted a new life as with Neytiri but also something a little more. Then my second vote would have been for "Dream hunt"

"I AM A LIVING GOD!"

That... made me laugh so hard.. XD I am so sad they totally destroyed Norm's entire character.

I also really liked the scene after the hunt, where the Na'vi were dancing and Grace was drinking. There was a lot of Neytiri/Jake interaction that would do better to lead up to their romance.
