      Avatar at least had the excuse of existing to push 3D and mo-cap technology.

      Not sure about Avatars 2-5…

          There’s like three or four already out. Or something. Whatever the actual number is, I’m always amazed.

        Yeah, I watched it in a 3d cinema at the time and it was a great experience. Not the pocahontas story, but the cinematics. Avatar 2 was just shit. It’s like they’re pretending to be a real scifi franchise by building an entire world.

          Avatar was always about being a visual feast, which Avatar 2 definitely succeeded in IMO. I like them for what they are, great popcorn flicks.

          Avatar 2 came out in '22. Same basic plot, but the water effects are stunning.

          https://youtu.be/d9MyW72ELq0

          3 is completed and will be out for Christmas. 4 and 5 are in the pipeline.

          https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar:_Fire_and_Ash

          (All the trailers on YouTube so far are AI Bullshit, be warned).

          Avatar 4 and 5:

          https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar_4

          “it is scheduled for release on December 21, 2029.[8][9] A sequel, Avatar 5, is in development and is expected to be released on December 19, 2031.”

        Same thing for the sequels. Here’s an article about it. Maybe it’s the passage of time, but I’d say 2 is much more visually stunning than 1

      At first I thought you meant the first Airbender movie. Which also fits the criteria here.

      You mean, “Dances with Smurfs”?

        It’s clearly ripping off Pocahontas, not Dances With Wolves.

      I mean yeah it was a shit film but it obviously had “business” being made because it was the highest grossing film ever for a while. I think it was the start of Holywood going out their way to crack the Chinese market (or at least the first time they did it successfully).

      I know it’s just rehash Pocahontas but I enjoyed it. Suspend all that crap for a second and just enjoyed it

      I love the first movie, everything after is just more of the same. It feels uninspired.
