77: It Takes Two - Pocahontas and Avatar
Tuesday, 27 January, 2026

Is this the most obvious It Takes Two we've ever done? Maybe, but just as Jake Sully had to make a choice between the humans and the Navi, so did we have to choose between this episode or the Barbie Princess movies (which we will release this year, in case you're wondering). So, in today's episode we review Disney's 1995 animated film Pocahontas alongside its 2009 reimagining Avatar. Did James Cameron do a better job than Pocahontas' 27 credited writers? Did Pepsi adapt the finale of Pocahontas for one of their ads? And most importantly, how does Avatar rank alongside the Star Wars movies? We discuss these questions and more today, so connect your hair with a flying beast and join us today in The Steam Room Film Podcast!
