The year is 2009, you’ve just seen James Cameron’s Avatar on the big screen for the very first time, and you’re convinced it’s the greatest cinematic achievement since King Kong climbed the Empire State Building.

Cut to five years later: You’re watching the movie for the third time, in syndication on FX, while you’re visiting your relatives for Thanksgiving. Suddenly, the storyline feels a little racist. Those blue people look kind of silly. And don’t even get you started on that bizarre, tail intertwining sex scene.

Don’t you worry. You can finally recapture the magic and relive the Avatar glory days, because 20th Century Studios has now released of Avatar: The Way of the Water in theaters. Need a primer before you go see what promises to be the highest grossing movie since Top Gun: Maverick? You can watch the first Avatar (2009) in the comfort of your own home. Here’s how.

WHERE TO WATCH AVATAR (2009):

Avatar is streaming on Disney+, free to all subscribers. You can thank the Disney-Fox merger for that one—though it was originally a 20th Century Fox film, the Avatar franchise is now under the Disney umbrella.

Avatar is also available to buy or rent on digital platforms, including Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, and more. The price may vary depending on the platform you use to purchase the film, but Avatar costs $3.99 to rent and $14.99 to buy on Amazon Prime.
