Why do people say this movie made no cultural impact?
First of all, what movie makes a 'cultural impact'? At best, people just talk about a movie and it becomes popular, and that's it. Moreover, this movie advanced 3d technology. Hell, I even watched this movie in 4D, what other full feature length movie did that?
>what movie makes a 'cultural impact'? Black panther. You will be reading about this low IQ shit with PS2 graphics in schools for decades to come. >this movie advanced 3d technology Thanks for literally nothing, ESPECIALLY when the new movies look much worse than pre 2009 movies.
Nicholas James
This movie made a record 2.7 billion worldwide and is right behind Gone with the Wind adjusted. If it didn't make an impact (it did, especially with Real 3D), it wouldn't even be up there alongside the highest grossing movies.
>First of all, what movie makes a 'cultural impact'? Star Wars and the MCU are the biggest, but any movie that gets referenced a lot can be said to have had cultural impact. The only place I ever hear about Avatar is this board.

>2 hours
weak, the first film was 3
Connor Hill
You need to add a bit of dialogue and action scenes of course.
>The next avatar movie should be in VR. next Avatar movie will be a netflix original

When people have conventions for things, its a cultural impact.
When people quote things daily, its a cultural impact
When people made-up words like Jedi become real, its a cultural impact.
A handful of people might know the blue people are Navi, but nobody can name any of them , or the planet, or its creatures, or ANY of the fucking characters.
There are thousands of novels worth of fanfiction for movies with cultural impact. There's a dozen written by the same asshole for Avatar.
for fucksakes, when you ask people if theyve seen Avatar they assume youre talking about the Airbender cartoon. Its not even the most popular thing with its own name.
Leo Richardson
Avatar might as well have never existed.
Jaxson Young
OP, "cultural impact" mean mythic resonance. Think about how Star Wars or Star Trek is referenced in the public consciousness and now think about the last time someone said something that reminded you of Avatar?! It was a one and done flick. Entertaining for the time but it just doesn't resonate over time!!!FACT!!!

Just butthurt mutts being butthurt as always that the best filmmaker ever is Canadian. That’s all.
all the hard sci-fi was backgrounded to avoid confusing normies. people literally don't notice how clever a lot of the concepts are, or how realist the movie manages to be despite aliens and space travel.
Ian Richardson
Disneyworld disagrees
Liam Cruz
Inception, the matrix, space odyssey, Akira, saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, Terminator
Are all movies that had a fairly large cultural impact. Measured particularly by how movies tend to imitate them after release. There are certainly more, but I'm a pleb and can't think of them

Blake Ortiz
How good is gone with the wind?
Lucas Campbell
The film was released in 2009. In 2019, every day you see several threads of discussion. >no cultural impact
Brayden Jenkins
Toruk always bothered me. Cameron really dropped the ball in the naming conventions. Sully for a main character? Pandora for a planet? Literally stealing turok and Navi was supposed to symbolize what? How they guide you?

>First of all, what movie makes a 'cultural impact'? Star Wars, The Matrix, Terminator, Aliens, Jurassic Park, Back To The Future, etc.
>Moreover, this movie advanced 3d technology. This movie was made as an excuse to advance 3D tech, and it's literally the only thing it has going for it. When people talk about Avatar (which they rarely ever do) they don't bring up things like the 3D or how much money it made.

you're looking for watershed moments, moments where the genre is changed significantly like a paradigm shift. its easy to see now becasue we get to appreciate what follows after, essentially, something that transcends not only the in the film industrt but also the real worl behvaiours or sociotal recognitiion examples include the matrix, for action, the ring (jap and american) for horror, ET for scifi

That's what we like to see in our sci-fi movies! Backgrounded science fiction!
You do realize that "realistic sci-fi movies" are the fucking worst, right?
Ethan Davis
>backgrounded science fiction >bad this is your brain on Marvel

>sci-fi movies aren't meant to be fun and imaginative >they've got to be grounded in real world logic because my autism won't stop noticing things like incorrect science references
The first movie was pretty much already about her (and Jake, but who gives a shit about him). The next one seriously needs to expand so we can see some other na'vi characters properly.
Mason Perry
you're in luck, they'll have 3 kids and there's at least 5 other new na'vi characters. Hopefully we'll get some comfy mommytiri scenes
