Their faces being cat like is precisely why @lsa likes them!

It's funny, there's the standard li(n)e on here about how everyone has been watching the UFC since 1993, and we all chuckle to ourselves because we know very few people on here actually have been. It's weird how barely anybody on here has even seen the Avatar movies and less like them. It'd be hilarious if this third one made 8 billion dollars yet gets a 10% on Rotten Tomatoes and everyone walked around talking about how they've never even heard of these movies.

Anyway, I'm planning on rewatching the first two on Thursday (for the first time on my new big 4k TV) and then seeing the third one in IMAX 3D on Friday. I can't wait to give Cameron more of my money.

Dont forget your time. Lol

This is the kind of movie I have to see at the cinema or I won't likely never gonna see it. The only thing I care about regarding this movie is the visual aspect. I don't care one bit about the story, especially after the very dull second part.

Those movie should not be 3 hours long either.

Really. Honestly I was bored more than the 2nd and I loved the 1st . I honestly have less intrest to see the finale than any other movie series finale in which I watched the first 2 or 3.

Cameron could have made this great and Star wars like but he went all in on visuals and just totally mailed in the script and story. The script is downright terrible and very CRINGE , the story is about as totally basic paint by numbers as it gets - boring AF. Cams last 2 Avatars are rhe 2 worst films Cam ever did imo

This continues to be the most confounding movie franchise of all time. Makes ridiculous amounts of money but no one seems to really care or talk much about it.

Quaritch is like Colonel Lockjaw in this.

Varang dynamic saves it.

3 hours in a theater is insane.

After reading through these comments, looks like I'll give Fiery Ass a miss.

Seems pretty

James Cameron just runs an fx studio and a marketing agency.

People go for the cool visuals, not the story.

I still haven't seen it yet. If I wait until the first week of January I can get in for half the price of what it was on opening weekend.

And that's in the most premium theater for the most premium showing.

I haven't seen 1 in probably 5 years, and the last time I watched 2 was when it was brand new in the theater. So I'm going in 80% blind. Perhaps that will lead to a better experience since a lot of people hating on F&A seem to be saying it's too similar to Water.

3 hours in a theater is insane.

More like 4 hours. Movie is over 3 hours and then previews are 20 minutes or more especially since I heard it shows a long preview or Odyssey. Then there’s the drive and you’re looking at 4 and a half at least

 

[Listen Al Gaib]

The most ridiculous fact about these movies is that Sam Worthington made more than $100 million for The Way of Water alone.

First time I've ever seen Cameron "phone it in."

This was a lackluster remake of the 2nd movie.

 

[TrueBias]

Its just a pretty screen saver.

I saw it earlier this week and loved it. I wish Cameron did a few things differently, but these are complaints that would've made the movie even better than it was, not complaints about why it wasn't great, because it absolutely was. The most impressive world-building in film history as far as I'm concerned and Cameron is STILL the king of the spectacle.

Having cracked a billion dollars again, I do hope Cameron makes another film, but I'm not crazy about him doing these two two-parter films like the fucking Dunes. I want more cohesion/closure at the end of my movies than that. But I'm giving Cameron my money no matter what.

Looking forward to an even whinier and more butt-hurt Avatar 4 thread.

Supposedly he plans on going to Earth in either 4 or 5. That sounds interesting to me.
