Filming just started today (after months of pre production). James Cameron is set to make 4 sequels. Are you looking forward to the sequel(s)? I can't decide if he's either crazy or brilliant lol. At this point though, I think it would be foolish to bet against Cameron. People thought he was crazy making a 200 million dollar budget about a sinking ship and they thought Avatar would flop too (both are the highest grossest films of all time)
Avatar 2 will be in theaters December 18th, 2020.
I loved Avatar. I thought the 3rd act was worth the price of admission alone. Saw it twice in IMAX 3D (I very rarely would do something like that but I liked it so much the 1st time I had to see it again) So count me in on looking forward to the sequels. [Reply]

This is where the movie should have ended. Everyone bows, the music swells, the credits roll. Instead, it dragged on for another interminable, meaningless 30+ minutes, and I had to piss really, really bad. :-) Turns out I could have just peed and left and missed nothing of importance.
That and those stupid tree things were the only real problems I had with LOTR. [Reply]

I made it half an hour into that movie and I had to turn it off. Kudos to them, 15 more minutes than I could take during Harry Potter which somehow was worse. [Reply]

I listened to a review and they brought up a good point, including Spider was just like Cameron showing off. Spider is a human in a CGI movie but it looks totally natural. Pandora looks like a real place and having an actual human actor in there doesn't look weird at all.
Just saw in it IMAX 3D and it blew my mind. (It was my first IMAX 3D experience).
The visuals were amazing, and I was totally immersed.
Didn't care to even look for holes in the plot... I just enjoyed this one. [Reply]

that is offensive to an artist like cameron, who's movies are MADE to be seen on the big screen
this had to be seen in a theater to be appreciated
Watched this at a friend's tonight. 60" 4k tv and it looked beautiful. I actually liked this one more than the first one. That said I'm gonna try to get to a theater before it's gone. I kept thinking this probably is amazing looking in theaters. [Reply]

John Wick and the visuals are also meant to be seen on a movie theater screen. [Reply]
