Cameron just said he might pass on directing duties for Avatar sequels to other directors he is busy on other stuff.

Wait....what?! I thought the filming was all finished years ago and it's all been post-production work ever since

Cameron shot Parts 2 and 3 and is in post-production now but said that he might let someone else do Parts 4 and 5.

Hey what's Ridley Scott doing?

The Dark Fate director upon hearing the news:

Lol why does this need a part 2 and 3 and 4 and 5? Jeez he should have put those out when avatar had a growing fanbase. Struck when the iron was hot. I will be very surprised if this movie crossses a billion

Never underestimate Cameron and his blue army.

Looks like we'll be getting yet another massively long epic.

Cameron:

"I don't want anybody whining about length when they sit and binge-watch [television] for eight hours ... I can almost write this part of the review. 'The agonisingly long three-hour movie...' It's like, give me a f—— break. I've watched my kids sit and do five one-hour episodes in a row."

 

[Wor-Gar]

Watch, Cameron's own kids won't be able to sit through the Avatar 2 screening, let alone ever watch it again as a binge Episodes 2-5.

There's sitting at home on your sofa binge watching shows and then there's 3 hours in a damn cinema chair with no pause button.

Yeah, huge difference here.

Yes, that was a really dumb analogy. There's a reason why every streaming show releases episodes that are 35-55 minutes long with a cliffhanger hook at the end of every episode.

If Stranger Things was three hours an episode with it only getting interesting in the last 30 minutes then kids wouldn't bother with that either.

No kidding, lol.

"But kids will binge watch Netflix for five straight hours!"

Do you know what else my kids do Jim? Live their lives without watching or thinking about Avatar, lol.

I know, I know, never bet against Jim, especially when this movie will make 2 billion in China alone, but sometimes what he says is just kooky.

 

[ironwez20]

That was a dumb thing to say. Who the hell wants to sit in the same spot for hrs? Also sitting with a bunch of people in a dark room for 4 hrs watching blue people be great and have *** with there hair or whatever

 

[jye4ever]

ROTK EE is just a short story for Cameron.

 

[Rotfish]

Three hours is fine. LOTR did it. Blade Runner 2049 did it. Wolf of Wall Street did it. Of course, those were great stories that needed the long runtime to be told properly.

 

[Victοr]

I don't mind long running times, I just think the movie has to deserve it. Honestly, I'm going to skip Avatar 2 on principle. I'm tired of all these movies/games/whatever always having an anti-human agenda. It's always "aliens this", "robots that". We're all humans, who gives a crap about imaginary xenos? What happened to make people develop such a self-hatred for their own kind? I don't get it all. I guess Matrix is robophobic or whatever now.

40K-Tier half-kidding aside, Cameron can take his Dances With Wolves rip-off and sit on it for about 10 more years. I hope it flops and he starts ranting like Scott did when "The Last Duel" did as well. The senile moron blamed cell phones. For a moment I was back in 2010... It's almost as if trying to jam three different genres into one doesn't work! Honestly, I dislike Scott for his blue filter. The guy turned ******* Rome into Gothic London with his blue filter fetish...

Whatever. I'll watch Lawrence Of Arabia and Once Upon A Time In America back-to-back before sitting through even an hour of Space Cat Smurfs.

Spoiler

Although, hand on God, I may break down and give it a watch at home simply because I like water-based stuff too much. I'll just gawk at the underwater scenes and whatever. I know, I know, I'm weak and a hypocrite...

I just saw this so I'm a bit late to the conversation. That "The Way Of Water" title makes a lot more sense now. This could very well be quite the immersive in-theater experience for audiences. Are we sure this isn't a direct to streaming release?

Be sure to check your seats before sitting down folks!
