THE SOUND OF DRUMS, from a great distance, growing louder.
从遥远的地方传来越来越强的阵阵鼓声。
FADE IN:

WE ARE FLYING through mist, a dimly glimpsed forest below.
我们在迷雾中飞行，丛林，透过迷雾隐约可见。
VOICE (V.O.)
声音(旁白)
When I was lying there in the VA hospital, with a big hole blown through
the middle of my life, I started havingthese dreams of flying.
我正躺在荣军医院，身体正中被穿了一个洞。我又开始那些飞翔的梦境。
We are very low over the forest now, gliding fast, the drums BUILDING to a PEAK --
我们正在飞行，低低的掠过森林，如此快速平缓。
VOICE (V.O.)
Sooner or later though, you always have to wake up...
迟早，你迟早都要醒来……

EXT. CITY – NIGHT
外景 城市--夜晚
A SCREECH OF BRAKES as a vehicle WIPES FRAME, revealing -- JAKE SULLY, a scarred and scruffy combat vet, sitting in a beat up carbon-fiber wheelchair.
伴随着刺耳的声音，一辆车进入视野--杰克.萨利（萨姆?沃辛顿饰演杰克?萨利）出场，一个满身伤疤且衣衫褴褛的空军退伍兵，坐在碳纤维质的滚动轮椅上。
At 22, his eyes arehardened by the wisdom and wariness of one who has endured pain beyond his years.
虽然他才22岁，可是他的眼睛却透露出只有经历过比实际年龄多得多的苦难的人才具有的智慧与谨慎。
Jake stares upward at the levels of the city. MAGLEV TRAINS WHOOSH overhead on elevated tracks, against a sky of garish advertizing.
杰克望向城市的天际。磁悬浮列车在高架桥上快速的运行，天空的霓虹的颜色出奇的绚烂。
JAKE (V.O.)
They can fix a spinal, if you’ve got the money. But not on vet benefits, not in this economy.
他们明明可以把我的脊骨治好，前提却是我必须有钱才行。但是这些钱并不在退伍兵的福利之内，国家的钱也不会惠及我们。
The traffic light changes and Jake pushes forward with the crowd, pumping the wheels of his chair. Most of the people wear FILTER MASKS to protect them from the toxic air. In a LONG LENS STACK it is a marching torrent of anonymous, isolated souls.
交通灯闪烁，杰克在人群中推着轮椅前行。因为这里的空气有毒，人们大多都带着防毒面具。长焦镜头，那里有一排排的没有姓名且被隔离的灵魂。
INT. JAKE’S APARTMENT - NIGHT

The room is a tiny CUBICLE, prison cell meets 747 bathroom. Narrow cot, wall-screen droning away in the B.G. --PERKY NEWSCASTER
房间是一个小格子间，和监狱的747洗手间一样。背景是狭窄的小床，还有墙上屏幕的声音嗡嗡的消失--珀克.纽卡斯尔

Jake laboriously pulls his pants off -- rocking to one side, pushing the fabric down past his hip, then rocking to the other, and so on.
Jake吃力地把他的裤子拉下来，挪到一边，把裤子从屁股上扯下来，然后又挪到另一边，这样反复进行。
His legs are white and atrophied. Utterly useless. But his arms are tattooed and powerfully muscled. A “Born Loser” tattoo prominent on his shoulder.
他完全残废的苍白双腿已经萎缩了。但他那有着纹身的双臂却矫健有力。肩膀上显眼的位置纹着“废物”两个字。
JAKE (V.O.)
I became a Marine for the hardship. To be hammered on the anvil of life. I told myself I could pass any test a man can pass.
我为了吃苦成为一名海军陆战队员，接受生活的锤炼。
我提醒自己只要人类能通过的任何考验我也都能通过。

We find Jake near the pool table, BALANCING his chair, front wheels off the ground, while holding a tequila shot on his forehead. ONLOOKERS, including some other disabled vets, CLAP and WHOOP.
我们看到Jake在池子旁边的桌子那里，前轮离地平衡着他的轮椅，用额头顶着一杯龙舌兰酒。众多残疾老兵兴高采烈地在一旁围观。
Jake grabs the glass, SLAMS down the shot as they cheer.
Jake拿起酒杯，在别人的欢呼中一饮而尽。

JAKE (V.O.)
Let’s get it straight up front. I don’t want your pity. I know the world’s a cold-ass bitch.
让我们到高空的前上方。我可不需要你的同情。我知道世界他妈的有多残酷。
Jake’s eyes shift -- HIS POV, seeing the bar through gaps in the crowd. A MAN on a barstool SLAPS the WOMAN he’s with. Hard. She cowers but he’s got her arm, shouting, raising his fist. An eternal tableau. People look away.
Jake在眨眼--（从他的视角）：在人群的空隙中看到了酒吧。坐在吧椅上的男人重重地扇了与他随行的女人一耳光。那女人害怕的蜷缩了，可是那男人咆哮着抓住女人的胳膊，挥起拳头。画面在那一瞬间定格。人们纷纷把目光挪开。
CUT TO JAKE -- not looking away.
镜头切换到Jake——没有转移他的视线
JAKE (V.O.)
You want a fair deal, you’re on the wrongplanet. The strong prey on the weak.

JAKE (V.O.)
It’s just the way things are. And nobody does a damn thing.

Jake stops, unnoticed, next to the bullying man. He leans down and grabs one leg of the man’s barstool -- and YANKS. The chair flips. The guy goes down HARD and --JAKE hurls himself from the wheelchair, toppling on the guy, getting a grip on him like a pit bull and PUNCHING the crap out of him, right there on the floor.
Jake来到那个打人的混球旁边，并没有人注意他。他俯下身，一把抓住那个家伙座的吧椅——用力一拉。椅子倒下了，那个打人的家伙重重的摔在了地上，Jake猛的跳出他的轮椅，压在那个家伙身上，像抓住一头斗牛犬一样抓住他，然后把他摔在地板上。
THE BOUNCER jumps in, trying to drag him off and it goes into
保镖冲过来，试图拉开他
SLOW MOTION, everybody yelling and pulling...
慢镜头，所有的人都喊叫着，撕扯着。
JAKE (V.O.)
All I ever wanted in my sorry-ass life was a single thing worth fighting for.

保镖把Jake扔出门外，他四肢张开摊在石头路面上，过了一会儿，他的轮椅越过头顶掉下来，一声巨响响彻小巷，轮椅已经变成了一堆废铁。
Jake struggles to rise on one elbow. He’s bleeding and bruised, but still crazed and ready to fight.
Jake奋力抬起他的一条胳膊，他浑身瘀青还在流血，但是仍然疯狂的准备继续打斗。

He stares upwards at the levels of the city. MAGTRAINS ROAR overhead. It starts to RAIN. He just lies there, blinking --then shouts jauntily to no one in particular --
他的目光越过城市的地平线向上望去，磁悬浮列车轰鸣着从头顶驶过，天空开始下雨，他依旧躺在那里，一道闪光划过天空，Jake兴奋的大叫

伙计们,你们已经在低温仓中睡了五年零九个月和二十二天了。你们会感到饿,会很虚弱。如果你感到恶心,为了方便,请使用呕吐袋。

A GAS-GIANT PLANET called POLYPHEMUS, ringed with dozens of moons which cast beauty-mark shadows on its vast face. The ISV diminishes away from us toward the largest MOON—a blue and surprisingly Earth-like world called PANDORA. The ship dwindles to a speck against the BLUE MOON.
画面显示出一个巨大的“波吕裴摩斯“行星，周围环绕着十几个卫星，它们美丽的影子投射到巨大的行星表面。ISV飞船离我们越来越远，飞向最大的一颗卫星—— 卫星呈蓝色，与地球惊人的相似，被称作“潘多拉“。相映着蓝色的卫星，飞船像是个斑点。

FLYING OVER A LANDSCAPE of massive cliffs and towering mesas carpeted in rainforest. Great scarves of cloud swirl around the mesa tops. A primeval landscape, vast and forbidding.The trees are alien, the color too cyan. There are waterfalls, rivers, and distant flocks of WINGED CREATURES.
Suddenly the carpet of virgin rainforest gives way to --AN OPEN-PIT MINE. A lifeless crater -- as if a giant cookiecutter took a chunk out of the world. Down among the terraces are EXCAVATORS and TRUCKS the size of three storybuildings.And beyond the mine is the HUMAN COLONY --
暮色降临。地平线上悬崖林立，雨林像地毯一样覆盖了整个大地。大块的云团在天空飘游。这是一个原始地带，巨大而令人畏惧。树木是我们所没有见过的种类，整个色调也显得偏蓝色。其间有瀑布、河流和成群的长者翅膀的生物。突然，这片原始雨林被切断，显示出一个露天矿场

Jake一边推着他的轮椅，一边环顾四周。
A huge TRACTOR, taller than a house, ROARS past on muddy wheels. He notices something sticking in the tires --ARROWS. The neolithic weapons are jarring amid all the advanced technology.
一个比房子还要高大的牵引机隆隆地从他身旁开过去，轮子上满是泥浆。Jake注意到有些东西插在轮胎上-是箭。这些古老的武器在四周满是高科技装备的包围中显得如此的突兀。
Beyond the tractor, two VTOL vehicles take off. Armored and heavily armed, they are AT-99 “SCORPION” GUNSHIPS.
在牵引机前面，两架垂直起降飞机升空了。厚甲重装，他们是AT-99“天蝎”武装直升机
MITSUBISHI MK-6 AMPSUITS -- human operated walking machines 4 meters tall -- patrol the perimeter. They are heavily armored, and armed with a huge rotary cannon called a GAU-90.
而三菱制造的MK-6 AMPSUITS-那是些高达四米的人控行走机械-开始在四周巡逻。他们的火力强大，配备有被称为GAU-90的巨型旋转加农炮。
Beyond the outer fence stands a black wall of forest hundreds of feet high. A SENTRY GUN OPENS FIRE from a tower. TRACERS light up the twilight. A shadowy SHAPE SHRIEKS and drops off the fence. It is an armed camp in a state of siege.
在最外侧的

围墙外，是数百英尺高的由森林构成的黑色树墙。监视哨上的枪开火了，一颗颗曳光弹照亮了黎明。一个模糊的影子尖叫着从围墙上跌落下去。显然，这里是一个被围攻的武装营地。

一只面目丑陋的飞行怪兽真在一米远的边上对他咬牙切齿。它用尾巴上的耀眼的尖刺穿过链网对着他挥舞。是一只STINGBAT。
WAINFLEET casually BLASTS IT with his PISTOL. It drops off the fence, tail still lashing.
WAINFLEET若无其事地用手枪打死了它。它从栅栏上掉下来，尾巴还在摆动。

在OPS中心的走廊里，俯视，一个穿着军装的人握着栏杆，看着Jake摇着轮椅走过下面的通道。
The hair is clipped short. The scalp is etched by long parallel SCARS where some Pandoran denizen’s claws raked across it. The bare arms, below tightly rolled sleeves, seem hewn out of some hard tropical wood. Criss-crossed by scars. The MAN raises his masked face to look at the sky. He eyes are an icy steel gray.
他的头发剪得很短。头皮上有着被潘朵拉上的生物抓出的几道并排的疤痕。露在外面的粗壮手臂把袖子绷得很紧，就像是用热带丛林中的硬木头打造出来的。他的眼睛是如钢铁般的灰色。

We have an indigenous population of humanoids here called the Na’vi. They’re fond of arrows dipped in a neurotoxin which can stop your heart in one minute. We operate -- we live -- at a constant threat condition yellow.
这个地方还有被称为Na’vi人的类人土著居民，他们擅长使用在神经毒素中浸泡过的弓箭，这些箭一旦命中，可以在一分钟之内让你们停止呼吸。我们只有采取行动，才能求得生存，尤其是在这样一个充满致命威胁的条件下。

As head of security, it’s my job to keep you alive. I will not succeed --(pausing for effect)-- not with all of you. If you wish to survive, you need a strong mental attitude, you need to follow procedure...
身为安全部队的长官，让诸位生还是我的职责。但是恐怕我无法成功--（停顿一下以获得演讲效果）至少是无法成功让在座的每一位都能够生存下来。如果你们希望幸存下来，那么你们就需要坚忍的精神状态，你们就需要遵守规则…
