The last one made over 1 billion. It is more accurate to say everyone wants more Avatar movies.
I watch the last one. I will not be watching avatar 4 or 5
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.
It would spare us the tiresome dialog.
... you got me. I would certainly consider seeing that.
...it was the first (and one of the few) well-produced modern 3D film and mustered a plurality of its box office return on the hype surrounding that novelty...
I enjoyed the first, in the cinema in 3d, it felt designed to be watched in 3d, rather then the tacked on bullshit jumpscare the rest of the 3d era movies were
The third one is easily my favorite. Action packed from beginning to end, and absolutely beautiful.
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.
I watched it three times and enjoyed it more each time.
