I went to see the second one purely because I wanted to see the pretty CGI world, I didn't expect too much from the plot. No disappointment there.

I may yet do the same with the third one. I'm also not expecting too much from the plot there. I just want to see cool CGI and fancy world-building. It's entertaining in its own way and best seen on the big screen.

Yeah, I can watch all sorts of bad movies if the technical aspects fascinate me. Avatar hasn't let me down on that front so far.

It's not the people who see it once out of curiosity that cause these huge numbers.

It's the people who see it three times in one week.
