It may have taken Avatar: Way Of Water many years to reach the big screen but the sequel was worth it for the many ways it surpassed the first film.
Thirteen years after the release of Avatar, James Cameron finally released the sequel Avatar: Way of Water and in many ways, the sequel film was better than the first movie. Avatar tells the story of Jake Sully as he becomes enamored with the world of Pandora and fights to protect it and its people, the Na'vi, against his human superiors.
A big reason for the added complexity of Avatar: Way of Water's plot is that the sequel had less to explain and more time. Avatar had to commit much time to setting up the world of Pandora for audiences, meaning that Avatar 2 didn't need to as much, allowing for its bigger runtime to be focused on expanding its story. These differences gave Avatar: Way of Water a chance to surpass the first film in terms of story.
Avatar certainly gave its characters plenty of screen time and backstory - however, the sequel does it better because of the sheer amount of characters and how many of them get bits of plot. Once again, where Jake Sully led Avatar's Na'vi story, the second one splits it among various people and consequently offers more understanding about characters and their relationships with others.
Another major family tie that Avatar: Way of Water explores is Spider's relationship with his father, Colonel Quartich. Throughout the film, Spider and Quartich experience the hardship of their relationship, knowing that their goals are unaligned, but that they are connected by blood all the same. Spider in particular is a great example of complex family dynamics because of his relation to Quartich and humanity, but his loyalty to the Sully family and his life in Pandora.
