Sigourney Weaver confirmed tonight that James Cameron is shooting “Avatar” 2, 3, and 4 all at the same time, all with her, and starting this fall. But first…
Are you ready for the Clintons as a political soap opera? Sigourney Weaver is playing it pretty close to Hillary and Ciaran Hinds is a damn good Bill Clinton in USA Network’s “Political Animals.” The studio threw a fine all star premiere in New York last night at the Morgan Library, showing off Greg Berlanti’s new dramedy. Frankly, like most of the USA Networks shows, this could play on NBC in prime time. A real movie star, Sigourney Weaver, plays Elaine Barrish, ex First Lady of a philandering Democratic president who becomes Secretary of State.
Anyway...
Making 3 movies at same time cost so much less.
Avatar - 500 million
Avatar 2,3 and 3 could be done about 600 million and its much eaiser. They just film more footages and make it longer.
Look at Lord of The Rings.
Why did you have to say anything else?
First of all, filming at the same time doesn't mean they'll be completely produced together, editing takes the most work specially with CGI in movies like this. Pirates of the Carribean sequels were filmed together i think, but the editing and everything still took 2 years to release the sequels.
Plus they don't want the hype to die down by releasing so fast.
Pff... Because having one crappy sci-fi movie that has no story and substance was enough. Three more sequels will only make it worse.
Don't worry
*puts on sunglasses*
he'll be back.
I know people love it but really its the same story told 10x with blue people and good S/FX
I don't at all think that you're just a hipster that's hating on Avatar to be cool.
Anyway i gotta go. I'm gonna go watch Jason Statham hang from a helicopter.
Seriously, the hard-a** military man who will stop at nothing to take out the Navi, the weaselly corporate guy trying to get Unobtainium (seriously...Unobtainium?), the good doctor who's edgy and smokes (Ha! Funny because she's a doctor!), the nerd that knows the Navi culture, and the soldier with a change of heart. If I'd never heard of Avatar I'd swear that was describing a straight-to-DVD movie.
Maybe i should google it for you?
So i did
Pocahontas,Dances with Wolves and especially Fern Gully:The Last Rainforest. (almost identical)

nope you're right
lol at calling me a hipster btw. yep i heard only hipster had anything to say about it. That is a very hipsterish comment from you btw.
Then will be adding FX for all eternity. Or at least, by seven years. One by one.
But a Prometheus 2 would be great as well.
On topic: I enjoyed Avatar and look forward to part 2,3,4.
the way charlize acted they could've easily used kristen stewart and nobody would've known the difference.
the story was lame. almost felt like 90% of the movie was eye candy with the visual effects and 10% story and character development.
apart from the c-section bit, the rest of the movie was like "Why the hell am i still sitting here?"
Or you could do a Prometheus sequel. Just one for the good old days.
I got nausous right there.
Who the HELL?! Wants a quarter dozen Avatar movies?
I mean, the 1st movie worked for it's time, it was pretty & stuff, but come on, what can possibly happen next? Nothing that many would be dire to see.
Unless something happens, like da avatar world mixes in with the real world & war & crap happens, I just don't see much interest.
& the story?
Like, omg
All Avatar is to me is an modern Fern Gully (you know? The last rainforest?) movie.
If Cameron wants to get people excited, he should've mention Terminator sequels!
Oow! Just had a weird, wild thought;
Terminator Vs. Transformers!

(hehe)
But the main actor Sam Worthington is overrated imo. He's worse even worse in clash of the titans.
