Sci-Fi Avatar: The Way Of Water

noone worked 13 years on this movie. maybe 6 maybe 7 years. And that is design and script. VFX companies started working on shots in 2019
I understand that, my point is that VFX houses have been working on Avatar 2 since before the Marvel movies that came out this year were even officially announced and were still barely in pre-production.
 
It was not in development for 13 years. from 2010 to 2012 he was working with a big team on a submarine to reach the bottom of Mariana.
Then why he mentioned in 2009, that he already has plans for sequelS, including its leads.

You can go back to the articles during that time. It seemed he already had an idea way back in 2009. So thats counted in the development period. Even the returning cast members were confirmed way back in 2010.
 
Actual filming started in 2017 and surely most VFX has been done in post-production Before 2017 it was pretty much just testing technology (especially the underwater mocap stuff was something that took long time to figure out how to do) and working on the scripts..

From what i understand from other interviews the script that he threw out was writen after 2012

Where the hell is the first movie on 4K Disney?
That's more on Cameron than Disney since The Abyss and True Lies still have yet to be released on Blu-ray. There was time to release Avatar on 4K in the couple of years before Disney took over Fox. At this point I'm assuming they'll release the 4K version that was just rereleased in theaters alongside the 4K/Blu release of The Way of Water in a few months.

They removed it to promote the re-release.

I meant on disc but yeah they should put it back on D+ as well.

Hopefully I am surprised they didn't put it on disc before WoW though.

Guess so. Hopefully Way of Water can be the new official reference disc for home cinema. :cool:
 
Kind of obvious that it was going to be most popular out of what’s available but still good that that age group who were super-young at the time of the first film are into this.
Yep, and this'll shut up those who naysayed the first movie and say that nobody wanted this.

Yep, that will be very clear after the first numbers come in for this. I think Gen Z are likely to go earlier too.
 
Don't bet against James Cameron. It is folly.
Exactly. Really don't understand why people jumped all over that first movie back in the day. Its honestly held up over the years and it's not even a bad movie. Also, the comments about what it "ripped off" are bull**** and an attempt to smear Cameron.
 
But this is not fair. IF avatar 2 was released in the same week as 3 marvel movies and a hurricane hit half the world then it would be different and avatar would underperform or even bomb. Now it looks like avatar will make its budget back and maybe maybe even some profit. This is not fair. o_O

You know whats hilarious? the full trailer is out for 2 weeks and yet no comparison to another movie that Cameron copied. On reddit,twitter and social media they tried very hard to find a story to compare how unoriginal Cameron is. yet nothing.

I think it's a couple of things. I think it's a bit of schadenfreude. Some people probably want to see the big dog in the yard, James Cameron, get taken down a peg.

I also think the wait to the sequel was a little absurd. Like it kept getting delayed again and again. But yeah, these are clearly not the Fantastic Beast films. But it's here now and a lot of fans are getting excited again.
