* GoingNative: Downplayed. The Recombinants begin learning the ways of Na'vi just to get the advantage over them, starting with their language. But none of them feel the urge to switch sides unlike Jake Sully. [[spoiler:With Spider as their teacher, they begin taming Ikrans with their bare hands rather than using tranquilizers as they intended, and soon [[PrefersGoingBarefoot go fully barefoot rather than wearing oversized boots]] even at human HQ. Quaritch in particular manages to become the SoleSurvivor of his squad because he adapted to the Na'vi fighting style the best.]]

* ThoseWereOnlyTheirScouts: ''The Way of Water'' recontextualizes the RDA's first foray into Pandora as this. Hell's Gate was a glorified mining operation that started out by trying to make peace with the Na'vi. This time around, they're sending a much larger and more militarized force that fully intends to ''stay'' on Pandora, Eywa and the Na'vi's attempts to dislodge them be damned, and announce their arrival by [[WeaponizedExhaust burning flat an entire section of the forest by landing an entire ISV down on it]].

* ShoutOut: Lo'ak has braids that hang down over his right eye. Creator/JamesCameron insisted on this as a reference to John Connor's hairstyle from ''Film/Terminator2''.
