Worthington predicts five 'Avatar' films


Recommended Posts

Nice trolling. Just shows how ignorant you are. You clearly don't know who Cameron is. He have pushed movie technology for decades.

You should give some credit to Stan Winston.

Give us a pornographic version of Avatar! I want to see some of that hairy action

:whistle:

I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel but prob should stop there, there are way too many movie franchises going into the "Friday the 13th/Nightmare on Elm Street" way of thinking about films...

Some movies make sense to have trilogy's and such because of the continued story but not this one so much... (No I'm not trolling just expressing my Opinion)

I think it has more to do with Hollywood then true film making. There is no reason they couldn't make 10 sequels of great quality. Look at some book series and they have delivered a great quality book throughout the entire series.

I love the concept of a series of Avatar films, but I hope it just doesn't turn out to be recycled crap film after film. I'm quite interested to see how they even start the second film, as the first was tied up quite nicely.

:blink:

I consider myself to be a dedicated SciFi fan and I still have zero interest in seeing Avatar. It won't be remembered like Blade Runner, Dark City or Brazil. Heck, even 12 Monkeys will probably age better.

I am in the same mind dude, I love Sci-Fi always have but like you I don't really see myself sitting down to watch it, from the outset and the concept on the film I was like "meh" and I still am. I will never fault it for its visual attraction but you can see from just pictures it looks amazing but no not for me.

same here i have no interest in seeing a movie that stole its title from a cartoon. i don't know how this film is considered revolutionary or considered a brilliant film when it is 85% CGI. i am so glad cameron lost best director to his ex-wife. Also glad it somewhat got kinda snubbed at the oscars. The Hurt locker is what i call a brilliant movie

Eh, I didn't quite see why The Hurt Locker was so great. Although it might be because I was in the military and can't help but call bull**** in some scenes. Of course there were a few scenes that had some problems like the sniper scene (entirely unlikely on its own) where it suddenly transitions from engaging the enemy to the EOD team being dehydrated and weak as if a lot of time had elapsed although there was no indicator of this. It was still overall a good movie but I think it's a tad overrated.

I'm just going to go ahead and ask it, what has Cameron revolutionised?

For Avatar he created an entire new camera system. He did the same for shooting underwater for The Abyss. He has also revolutionized sci-fi on the big screen, for better or for worse.

You're going to make me post this again?... Sheesh

I don't see how capturing CGI from multiple angles is "revolutionary" CGI is CGI, PERIOD. With our without motion capture. And I hate to say it to all you avatar fans out there, but visuals AREN'T the only thing that make a great movie... Heck for that matter, lets have james cameron re-do every movie that has had CGI in it and I dare you to spot a difference ;) Though I will give you he came up with some trick for shooting? Big deal, it's not changing the industry as a whole, people take words for granted...

So IMO... Heath ledger revolutionized how villains are to be portrayed.

Lord of the rings revolutionized make up...

Hell even the bullet time in matrix was a lot more "revolutionizing" then avatars CGI...

/revolution

In the end to each their own mate... I consider myself an avid sci-fi fan and count me in on changing channels if it were to show up on HBO/whatever channel you fancy.

You are entitled to your opinion, of course.

That's true. The story in Avatar wasn't weak but it wasn't anything new either. Of course, Titantic was the same way. Obviously, Cameron is doing something right for so many people to love his work. It's too bad that some of the really great sci-fi classics haven't reached the big screen. They would make some awesome movies.

I am a true blue sci-fi fan and I thought Avatar was great. However, like you said, to each their own.

    • I like mesh chairs like this, but not being able to lock in the back would make it not work for me. Also, I don't like arm rests at all. Can you not install them and the chair still work? Any recommendations on alternative chairs?
    • As before, my notes are in your quoted section. To be clear, you started posting racist, fascist nonsense. And I always challenge lies and the liars that peddle them. Why? Because the truth matters.
    • Deal for those who want 1900 size electronics in their house? with 2026/7 hardware mhm.. not nice
    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
