Made three out of the top four grossing movies of all time.
I don’t really like any of them, but you can’t argue with the results. The man knows how to put bums on cinema seats.
Pros: As an effect of him writing the script in the 90s, the movie feels like a 90s movie with modern fx.
Cons: As an effect of him writing the script in the 90s, the movie feels like a 90s movie, with ancient overdone tropes, including the racist ones.
I’ve always called bullshit on the second movie making that much damn money. There’s no way. Not nearly that many people cared about it at all, I seriously think somebody faked that attendance.
Take your meds.
The franchise is huge in China. Just because your group didn’t like it doesn’t mean they are faking anything
I smoked cannabis prior to watching the second movie and was still unimpressed.
Should have done acid
That probably would have made it worse though
Agh does the world need yet another religion?
All jokes aside, I think there was a mini religion for a while after the first movie came out.
Definitely I remember it. Also remember thinking you could just watch professional women’s volleyball instead. Bunch of skinny attractive people jumping around and not one of them are blue.
Im apparently the only person on the face of mother earth who genuinely liked the first movie… I did, no really. But the second one literally had nothing of interest in it. It looked the same, sounded the same, had the same characters and all that, but the movie when nowhere for 3 hours. I dont think I can ever sit through it again.
That isnt true. My six year old liked the first movie.
whenever I feel stupid I remember that it took Cameron 13 years to think “but what if water instead of trees”
His name is James, James Cameron. The bravest pioneer.
Bravely bold James Cameron
Rode forth from Hollywood.
He was not afraid to fail,
Oh brave James Cameron.
He was not at all afraid
To flop in nasty ways.
Brave, brave, brave, brave James Cameron.
He can’t keep getting away with it!
I feel like there was a good movie in Avatar 2 but a lot of the scenes looked like they didn’t render them fully. The FPS changes felt random. If they’d done ALL action in 48 and ALL dialogue in 24 it wouldn’t have been as bad.
The scenes of the kids rescuing the parents were so gorgeous. Stunning. But compare that to the scene of the boat jumping and crashing? Insane how shitty it looked.
Adaptive framerate
It really did feel like a laggy videogame the way the frame rate and graphics would change so randomly.
Considering the movie is 98% CGI, that feels like a fuck up.
The reason why these trashy movies keep breaking records is the fact that studios primarily focus on Chinese distribution.
forgettable MC
Jakesully…
*sooly
I’m assuming the sequel is also forgettable considering that I’ve barely heard a thing about the plot.
The sequel is literally “the exact same movie as the first one, but this time with water (and bonus animal cruelty)”
I actually enjoyed the first one, but the second movie added nothing of value and cheapened everything that happened in the first one (in that literally no one gives a shit about unobtanium anymore)
Edit: Curious as to what the downvoters are taking issue with about my comment. Nothing wrong with liking the movie, but you have to admit the plot was basically identical to the first one, just with new characters and a different setting
I don’t know a single person who’s ever seen it
I don’t know how it made so much money. I guess people are seeing it and not talking about it?
I saw it. Enjoyed it. It was fun to watch. Not sure what else you really need in a movie tbh
Memorable plot, characters, themes.
Chinese distribution. China made the Warcraft movie profitable because audiences hated it in North America.
Hi, nice to meet you. You missed nothing.
Avatar?
Also: deep sea explorer done right and not implode himself by sparing expense.
13 years!!?? Fuuuuck.
Wasn’t it blue Dances With Wolves?
More like Smurfs with Ferngully
For some reason I thought it was the third one but people told me I was wrong and there are only 2
Don’t listen to them, they’re lying. The 4th one is coming out now
