I got really indifferented, because I don't even remember the plot of the first film anymore. Also because it's the triple-whammy of awfulness, a mobile MMO by Tencent.

I thought it was just Pocahontas with robots, but I had just watched the animated version around a week before I saw the first blue Avatar.

Don't forget Dances With Wolves! That's another one it's similar to.

Your description is also correct, according to the transitive property of Fern Gully/Pocahontas films.

But objectively worse because Avatar doesn't feature Tim Curry

The plot was alien sex

I never liked the first movie. The second one was pretty good imo.

The first movie was James Cameron’s anti-capitalist masterpiece! They have the technology and medicine to heal the parapalegic protagonist but don’t want to spend the money on him. They can sucker him into military service for their interests however.

An anti-capitalist masterpiece that earned its creator billions. Someone's playing both teams.
