What happens if Avatar: Fire and Ash doesn’t make enough profit to convince Disney to bankroll Avatar 4 and 5? Creator James Cameron has said he’s ready to walk away from the franchise, adding he’ll write a book to resolve the one thread Avatar 3 leaves open.
Why does he have to keep making sequels to it? Like, I know Avatar was the highest grossing box office movie at the time it came out, but at the same time it’s hardly spoken of. Nobody’s quoting it. I haven’t seen memes of it since around its release. What even happened to get it those ticket sales? It doesn’t seem to actually be a popular film and yet… It is?
Eh, I don’t mind if they make a couple more. I can take or leave the story, but the environments are well-produced and happen to result in interesting papers on rendering them. It’s cool to have some much work and effort put into a natural alien environment. I can’t really remember another movie in the last decades that goes this far.
Thinking about it, I’d really prefer if they made fictional documentaries instead…
I’m always far more interested by the making-of content. I wish they’d make hours of that, even release it on the big screen
First well made 3D movie(as in the one that required a special glass to see) i guess? I too can’t figure out the popularity of it.
Edit: now i remember a bit more, it’s basically that. it released at the time when 3d cinema is still a fresh, exciting new thing, and Avatar came out and did the 3d justice, so everyone is excited to experience this and every recommendation is basically “best experience it in 3d”. I remember when it released in bluray, people basically said it lost the charm because it isn’t in 3d. But i guess it’s still a competently made movie because the second one made as much money as the first one.
