it would be a wild social experiment if you could somehow delete all the copies in existence to tell people this movie doesnât actually exist and any impressions you have of it are owing to an elaborate marketing ploy. I guarantee you could sell it to 95% of the world https://t.co/FU8uSnsO5b— kilgore trout, tiny desk carpenter (@KT_So_It_Goes) December 13, 2020

so do these sequels just come out on disney plus now or do they keep them until 2022? I've learned never to bet against the tandem of Jim Cameron/the stupidity of consumers but i gotta feel like there is NO WAY Avatar 2 through 6 are viable in a post-covid movie industry.

sorry, keep until "202X" was what i was going for; I saw the reschedule announcement. I just don't buy it.

I rewatched Avatar last night and it is both totally captivating and such egregious horseshit

It still cracks me up that the primary theme of the movie is "got a problem? CONNECT IT TO YOUR SPACE DICK"

I'm still expecting him (or someone) to just pull the plug on the whole misbegotten adventure and simply chop up these sequels into a Disney+ series.

you get to see Sam Worthington's entire career arc in one film
My favorite part of watching this with our 9 year-old a few months ago (hey, quarantine means we have to dig deep to entertain him and it kept popping up on Disney+), was him going "unobtainium, dad, that's dumb".

Worthington was good in his Terminator, iirc.

I don't remember that Terminator movie being particularly good or memorable, but I don't recall it being bad because of him.

not enough versions
Breaking AVATAR 2 news: NATO chief John Fithian in press session with #CinemaCon media just said that James Cameron's sequel "will have more versions" than any movie in history: IMAX, 3D, PLF, high-res, high frames-per-second rate, variable sound systems, in 160 languages, etc.— Barry Hertz (@HertzBarry) April 26, 2022

"will have more versions than any movie in history" is a selling point on par with "from the producers of"

They've just announced the release date of the first (December 16th), which is why anyone's talking about them - and the trailer will be in cinemas with the Doctor Strange movie next week
― Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 28 April 2022 14:07 (two years ago) link
maybe they can combine it with the movie Anvil and make it Anviltar

it took me what, 13 years to see this? idk why except that ppl were like âitâs an incredible spectacle with pretty much nothing beneath itâ and i was like âi donât need another cameron film like thatâ
but at this point iâm pretty down with a movie that suggests we need to connect to the lifeforce that binds us to the earth and to each other to destroy all colonists

me too. some folks I know IRL (who think Wes Anderson is the GOAT and sneered at this film) did a lot of mental gymnastics to hold this film to different standards than other action movie spectacles.
(the discourse was much better ITT). also lol at jjjusten takedown of Shakey and Dan rejoinder upthread.

I refuse to believe any of you are excited about this. I mean, I believe it, but at the same time, I refuse. Love me some Cameron, hate that he's wasted his time with these Smurfs.

I'm excited for the new one too but I can look at enormous CGI trees and characters jumping on floating rocks all day. I understand 200% why people would get nothing out of this franchise
