Other mistake: When Tsireya is shown swimming with Aonung and Rotxo, her right shoulder strap is glitching through her shoulder. It then proceeds to slip back out of her shoulder and into its correct place. (00:59:10)
Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)

Continuity mistake: Jack and Neytiri successfully save their children and eliminate four soldiers from a group of six. However, during the extraction scene, all six soldiers reappear.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: The point is, they are not just six, they are (I think 12 in total)... Lo'ak doesn't sport the second group, which is why he miscounts them as "only six."
Continuity mistake: After Quaritch wakes up and jumps from his bed, there is a towel laying at the foot end of it, but in the next shot, the towel is gone. (00:09:25)
Trivia: This was filmed back to back with the as-yet-untitled Avatar 3. But filming didn't start until the scripts were written for 2 further sequels, so the actors would know the paths that their characters were on. James Cameron allocated the scripts to different writers after months of meetings and storyboarding. He didn't tell the writers which script they'd be working on until the end, because he knew "they'd tune out every time we were talking about the other movie."
Trivia: Kate Winslet performed all her underwater stunts herself, in the process holding her breath underwater for 7 minutes and 15 seconds, breaking Tom Cruise's record, set while filming Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation.
Trivia: There are scenes in this movie that are reminiscent of well-known scenes from other James Cameron movies. When Spider is in captivity, he bangs a chair into a 2 way mirror, such as in True Lies. When Jake and Neytiri are trapped in an oxygen bubble, they need to try to hold their breath to escape, similar to The Abyss. Other scenes when the whale hunting ship is sinking are reminiscent of Titanic, such as being handcuffed to the ship while it is sinking.
Jake Sully: I see now. I can't save my family by running. This is our home. This is our fortress. This is where we make our stand.
Lo'ak: The way of water connects all things. Before your birth, and after your death.
Lo'ak: Outcast - that's all they see.
Tsireya: I see you.
