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]
Honestly this film better hope it doesn't get trashed in reviews. Waiting like 20 years for the next installment only for it to suck would be Duke Nukem levels of hilarious disappointment. James Cameron has been hyping this film for so long but taking the George R.R Martin approach in productivity. [Reply]

I really don't understand what is so bad about it. It's James Cameron near his best. And there is so much they can do with it for sequels.
Cause it's alien Pocahontas.
The visuals are really cool though if you have a good set up. That's basically the only reason I'll end up watching the 2nd one. Just to see how far Cameron takes the visuals and how much bigger they make that world. [Reply]

This. I find Costner extremely grating and annoying so never watched Dance with Wolves. Who cares if it's about "Outerspace Aliens", I love SciFi. [Reply]

I'm just pissed the videogame has been delayed 4 years or so, I couldn't care less about the movies but ya I could care less about the videogame from Massive. [Reply]

So I read back through this complete thread. I previously posted how blown away I was by the special effects for when they came out and how meh the plot was.
If all you got is special effects, that doesn't usually age well. Not too many think the King Kong from the 30's or Godzilla films from the 50's are the all time cinematic masterpieces of that era. [Reply]
