>sequel film was delayed eight times in a row
>not even one film has passed and they're already bringing back the antagonist from the first movie
This is going to be a fucking disaster kek. But I love alien ocean settings so Im going to watch it anyway
Avatar 2
Empire Strikes Back also brought back the antagonist from the first movie.
he wasnt killed off at the end of the first one though
The colonel is Neytiri's father?
Interesting.
Yeah and Empire came out like 2 years after SW, not 13 years in development hell
His "soul" was absorbed into the organic computer that is aywa. So he becomes the avatar of the negative aspects of pandora. And like the greek tragedy its name after, they will open the box and the dark sides of paradise is let loose.
There's a difference between development hell and actual development that simply takes really long due to the ambition and scope of the project.
>And like the greek tragedy its name after, they will open the box and the dark sides of paradise is let loose.
Most likely Avatar 3 will have the original Space Na'Vi race that settled the planet come back and try to conquer Earth as punishment.
Na'vi are just using biotechnology to live a simple tribal life, but come from advanced civilization. It is quite obvious.
how was he not?
He escaped.

kino
People loved Vader though.
>13 years of production
>3 solid years of shooting
>zero hype
This shit is a disaster already
You guys still give a shit about Avatar?
>Sigh, somehow this guy has returned
how else can they turn it into a franchise with one new movie a year?
I thought he got stabbed
>development hell
what? way of water was never in development hell
Quaritch never died. He actually was a Na'vi all along and the man you saw throughout the first movie was his Avatar.
Cope more chud.
He never got stabbed once in the original film.
>turns out theyre humans from Atlantis, Eywa was rogue AI that BTFO themed when they discovered pandora
Vader didn't take a big-ass arrow laced with neurotoxin to the chest at the end of ANH, though.
>already bringing back a definitely dead antagonist from the previous film instead of coming up with a new one
Welp, guess Avatar 2 is DoA
>they're already bringing back the antagonist from the first movie
>implying this is a bad thing
Quaritch was easily the best part of the first movie, brining him back is a great choice
But he got shot two times with arrow the size of a telephone pole
I don't even remember what happened to him besides the mech. I don't even know what his name is.
>development hell
Literal retard
No, is an asspull and a lack of creativity. I would have preferred a new villain instead of him again. user at is right
Not him, just curious what you mean, I know nothing of the production of Avatar 2
The film is 19 years old
reminder
And?
Its going to be CGI space Indians running around a CGI planet with space marines. What grand scope could there possibly be? The first movie had the depth of your average Saturday morning cartoon
I doubt you remember teachers names from then
Development hell is where the development of something stalls due to prohibitive and protracted creative or legal issues, e.g. problems getting a good script/story written, director issues, etc.
Avatar 2 took a long time, yes, but there were no prohibitive issues that stalled the production, it just took a long time. They spent around 3 years brainstorming ideas and writing scripts for the entire saga, then they spent years developing the tech to film the sequels. But production never stalled during that time - they were always working towards a clear final goal, albeit slowly due to the scope and ambition of the project. Once they had the scripts in place, and the tech developed, actual production of Avatar 2 started in 2018 and finished without issue in 2020.
I didnt go to middle school, I went to films
Go back and reread the comments you are replying to
Anyone got a webm of the trailer?
>problems getting a good script/story written
>took 9 years to get a good script/story written
By your own definition it was in production hell

You keep trying to push the no hype meme, not working when people are clearly hyped
I just don't understand how they filmed this movie over the course of 10 years.
There were no problems getting the story written, they just developed 4 scripts in 3 years, which is a perfectly normal timeframe for such an undertaking. No huge rewrites, no throwing out entire scripts for new ones, no getting rid of screenwriters and hiring new ones, no script issues whatsoever. Just straight up developing 4 concurrent scripts.
Youre just dumb lol. Thats like saying you cant remember the villains name from the lion king because its been 28 years
I know you're posting this ironically but please stop, I can't help but glance at the literal fanfiction redditor Warhammer-nerd-tier text and cringe every time it's posted, it's like that Britney pregnant gif that people get you with, can't look away.
There wasn't a problem getting the script written they just put more effort into it to make a good story
Not the same as problems writing development hell
>people are clearly hyped
Who? Besides the people at IGN and shit who are paid to be "hyped", and the three people on Yea Forums who pretend to actually care about an Avatar cinematic universe, there is no grass roots excitement for this movie. People dont even remember the character names man, no one cares about this shit. The only praise the first movie got was because of the 3D gimmick, and that junk died off hard.
Well... I can't.
Liar
>good story
You mean a worse version of FernGully?
Anyone else read the original 1995 script for this movie?
Makes the alien planet seem much, much cooler.
i was talking about avatar 2
>T2 was the 3rd movie to hit $500M at the box office
>Titanic was the 1st movie to hit $1B at the box office
>Titanic was the 1st movie to hit $2B at the box office
>Avatar was the 1st movie to hit $2,5B at the box office
>Avatar is still the highest-grossing film of all time
Anyone who claims Avatar 2 will flop is a literal retard.
It will be the first movie to gross $3B. I wouldn't even be surprised if it grossed $4B.
Keep in mind not even Fox believed in Avatar.
What was cool about it?
>go to twitter
>type in "Avatar2"

Cant rush perfection. Also Quaritch was based as fuck so whats the problem?
I don't know what's going to happen.
But REVOLUTIONARY CRAZY 3D CGI JAMES CAMERON SCIFI ORIGINAL IP EPIC ADVENTURE FILM in 2008 is one thing. It was significant enough a cultural event that it made that big money you mention and had people grieving and suiciding and creating pseudo-furry communities and support groups and communes where they were either upset about not living on Pandora or larping that they were living on Pandora.
But it's been a LONG, LONG TIME and the novelty and love for the movie has died off or faded for a lot of people. It may do incredibly well. But the novelty drawing those numbers, whatever there was, has probably mostly gone. Unless the new marketing gimmick focus will be on UNDERWATER to replace WHOA STUNNING 3D CGI BLUE ALIENS.
Cameron made $2B with a movie everybody knew the ending. It made DiCaprio the worldwide star he is today.
He then made almost $3B with a movie every midwits on earth called "Pocahontas in space".
That guy knows how to make movies that speak deeply to people. It's not about CGI or the 3D, it's a lot deeper than that. I know people who went to see Avatar 4 or 5 times when it came out. People who usually never go to the cinema.
Yeah honestly i think avatar was a product of its time. Movies have changed a lot in 13 years and so has the culture, i doubt avatar would be as successful today. I also think it was pretty weird that Avatar made so much money and left almost zero cultural impact. People are still obsessed with Star Wars but I’ve never seen or heard of any diehard Avatar fans
Star Wars has had 9 movies, Avatar has only had one so far. Once 2 comes out, followed by the other movies on a faster release schedule, you'll definitely see some obsessive Avatar fans
