We’ve previous heard of James Cameron considering at least one and likely two more “Avatar” films, but today comes word that there might be more than that. Out doing press for her stint on USA Network’s “Political Animals”, Sigourney Weaver spoke with Showbiz 411 about the series and touched briefly upon the “Avatar” follow-ups. To […]
Sigourney Weaver has briefly mentioned the planned Avatar sequels. This isn't in anyway solid info as its partially a suggestion of the reporters but its been touched upon that Avatar 2, 3 and 4 could be made back to back.
Personally I think its stupid. Popular as Avatar was I'm not convinced it can hold the audience for 4 films and even if it can, back to back sequels almost always mean weak entries. They shouldn't made 2 and 3 back to back let alone three of the things.

BTTF is a fair one, I love all of them though BTTF3 is the weakest
Superman I wouldn't say counts in the same way most back to back films do as when 1 & 2 were made it was a fresh project so it was properly planned (though a hell of a risk). Usually its done with sequels looking to quickly cash in on the originals. Always worth lowing the expectations bar when a series does it.

I'd say it's a film that deserves to be watched. It's one of the best blockbusters ever made. Top quality high budget film making like only James Cameron can deliver.
Lots of people don't like it on this forum though, they seem to think its derivative and all about the effects. Personally I think that's simply untrue though, it's no more derivative than 99% of films that are released every year and the story works well, it features good acting and fantastic action sequences and of course visually its unparalleled. Its a film that anyone who considers themselfs a cinema fan really should see. Plus it's still the definitive 3d experience.
It certainly deserves all the high ratings it has online despite what some people here might say.Last edited by rmoxon; 21-08-2012, 15:01.

I've read so much stuff on the interweb that makes me just go "meh sounds utterly pants" that I've had zero interest in it at all from day one.
If it's really worth it like you say though then I guess it's cheap enough to get the BD these days that I might just buy it & try it.

Its a great film on many levels, it's only really the people who seem intent to dislike it that actually do. If you look at actual reviews for the film nearly all of them are extreamly positive, but people like to hate hyped films, especially on internet forums.
If you like Camerons other films you should like Avatar, it's the type of big film that doesn't come around often. If you do watch it though I would stick with the theatrical cut. Unless you like bizarre extended sex scenes involving blue aliens of course.

I'm not a huge Cameron fan TBH I enjoy some of his stuff (Vampires for example) but other things just don't do it for me.
I will take your advice though & grab a cheap 2nd hand copy to give it the benefit of the doubt & I will have zero problems in admitting my pre-conceived opinion may be wrong.
Will let you know when I do
