      I had the same feeling after the first one after delaying watching it for 15 years. It’s really not a good movie. I don’t get the hype.

        Even most people who say they like it can’t name a single character. They might name an actor, but a character from the world? Mostly crickets. It’s really the weirdest franchise. I think people just like going to James Cameron’s virtual worlds. 🤷

          He could probably do a nature documentary set in that world for cheap and people would pay to see it.

        I sat and watched, didn’t feel to bored, very surprised actually, but the test is, I feel, how much money would I accept to go watch it again? I think it would be quite painful.
