The film is set in the year 2154 on a gas giant's habitable forest moon called "Pandora" in the Alpha Centauri star system and follows Jake Sully, who is a former marine who is paralyzed from the waist down who learns that his identical twin brother Tommy Sully, who was part of the Avatar program, was shot and killed. He is asked to drive Tommy's Avatar body, which is made from blending human DNA with Na'vi DNA (the indigenous, intelligent, species on the moon) because they're DNA code is almost identical. The film also follows, Neytiri, a Na'vi who is the daughter to the chief of the clan, who eventually falls in love with Jake, as they both fight to protect their habitat and they're people. James Cameron also made 2 sequels to the movie, which are set to release in December 2022, and December 2024.

Refers to being stepped over and ignored with respect to one's rightful accolades. It's origin stems from the audacious treatment of the movie Avatar by the Oscar's Award committee in the 2010 ceremony when it picked up only 3 production related awards and lost out to another, much less grossing movie called Hurt Locker.
Dude 1: I can't understand why I never get promoted at work.
Dude 2: That's because you keep gettin Avatared.

NOUN/ADJECTIVE; A Human Being (maybe) who sits in class and thinks they are smarter then every one else; gets upset if they get a 99%; thinks they are smarter then the teacher and tries to contradict everything the teacher says; occasionally puts down classmates.

When a man with a prince Albert piercing places his cock across a woman's forehead so the dick ring sits above the eyes and directly above the nose. This resembles the headpiece the Na'vi wear in Avatar when they ride their ikran (mountain banshees).
