I forgot I made this

I'm looking forward to the visuals.

In such a visual medium James Cameron delivers.

I guess, but it's like a video game with gorgeous graphics, but shit gameplay.

Never saw the original in theatres, and the 3D was supposed to be fantastic, so looking forward to that at least.

I've grown more forgiving of it over the years. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.

It's better than any Marvel movie as far as a theme park ride goes. It's good immersive fantasy if nothing else.

Cameron is a really good action director, so the sequences aren't unnecessarily disorienting or shaky-cammed. They're beautifully done.

Fair enough. I do hope they try a bit harder with the story though, even if it's just a teeny tiny bit harder. The first movie was essentially just Pocahontas, but with aliens.

Ehhh gotta disagree here. Point of a theme park ride is to be fun and most Marvel movies are way more fun than Avatar.

It really was. It's the only movie I've ever watched in 3D that justified the price, imo. It was that good.

I found the third one predicable and fairly boring. I only watched it because we had a movie day at work. Very glad I didn’t pay for it.
So, it’ll be years of hearing ppl gush over the sequels, and SMHing.

^ Avatar 3?

I'm partial to aliens on faraway planets with spaceships, etc as opposed to people in silly costumes doing silly things.

^ So you built yourself a time machine and already seen Avatar 3?

No more than you have.

You and I have both seen the first one. If you liked it and are looking forward to the sequel(s) you’re going on what you enjoyed.
I didn’t like the first one and am not looking forward to the sequel(s) going on what I didn’t enjoy.

This isn’t groundbreaking stuff here kaz; we all of us have posted statements along the lines of “man, movie X part one was great/sucked, I can’t wait for/i’m gonna pass on the sequel”.

And it WILL be years of hearing ppl gush over the sequels (ppl still gush over part one almost ten years later). Though, much like i’m doing w. the JOKER movie, i’ll minimize exposure to the gush by not going into threads dedicated to them.

Here though, i’m just stating my opinion, prior to the movie coming out, and posting again to clarify that opinion for ppl who seem to find it hard to grasp plain English as it pertains to things they disagree with, then bidding the subject, the thread, and those ppl, adieu.

So, adieu kaz. 🙂

It has a title, and a teaser releasing soon, apparently...

Yeah...I've been reading its gonna be attached to Dr Strange 2, The trailer for this movie

no doubt it'll be online, It's not like it's gonna be 'go and see Dr Strange 2 otherwise miss out on it'.

Yeah, I'm not rushing to the theater for it. I'll just wait for it to release online.

I will wait f the Disney Plus release

This is one I will watch in theatres. Simply because I missed the original on its theatrical release, and unlike most films the 3D was supposed to be worth seeing for Avatar.

^ Yeah It was worth watching for it in 3D the first one apart form the story itself was mediocre.

Me and family saw the first one theatrically, and all we remember was how the story left something to be desired, not so much how pretty the effects were. I have no interest in seeing another something that is beautiful on the outside but soulless on the inside.
