James Cameron shared on Friday that the upcoming “Avatar: Fire and Ash,” set to release Dec. 19, 2025, will be even longer than its predecessor “The Way Of Water.”
Christ, it’s going to take a full work day to watch the thing.
Oh god…this series will end in 5h long releases that shozld actually have been a mini-show…
I think they meant to say “threatens”.
I mean sure whatever but at the end of the day you’re just remaking pocahontas poorly for the third time.
Idk, that water looks way better than Pocahontas.
People keep saying this kind of thing, without understanding there are only a couple dozen stories. Literally, every good story is a version of something else. Maybe at best, a mash up of a couple.
Edit: here is a decent page that covers them all.
Sure, but you can subvert archetypes or mix different types to make new stories. If you’re going to follow one of the archetypes, you need to have good dialogue, character development, visuals, etc.
People keep saying rhat since avatar doesn’t have a good plot.
Plot and story are overrated.
If that’s what really made a movie, a synopsis would be just as good. And way cheaper to make.
I bet Pocahontas itself is also a version of something older, but I’m not versed enough in classical literature to know what it might be.
im having one of those mandela effects were I already thought there had been 3.
Wasn’t he supposed to be doing some Terminator stuff? Why is he still stuck on this Avatar shit?
Pretty sure it’s because he has 5 movies planned.
According to wiki, 30% of the 4th movie is already filmed, and the rest is going to be filmed after the 3rd is released. And the 5th movie is set for 2031
ugh. I thought it was “only” 3
It was announced over eight years ago that they’re doing a buncha them.
