What decade can I expect to stop hearing about that dumbass movie or any echo of it?

[-] ares35@kbin.social 68 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

if the films go as planned, the fifth one will hit theaters late 2031, he has 'ideas' for two more after that.

and then you'd have the 30th anniversary re-re-release of a re-re-remastered first one... so, maybe, the 2060s?

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 6 points 5 months ago

Did the fourth one come out already? I honestly have no idea if I missed it or if it's somehow still not released yet.

[-] stankmut@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago

The second movie came out in 2022 and the third one doesn't come out until 2025.

[-] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 15 points 5 months ago

There's going to be a third one? I thought the second one added nothing of value, what are they going to with the third one? Discover another ultra rare resource that is going to become the focal point of human exploitation, but this time in a creature that lives underground? And poor Jake needs to relocate his family with the mole men?

[-] JohnEdwa@sopuli.xyz 6 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

And a fourth and a fifth, both of which have already had some work done (fourth one apparently has 1/3rd consisting of a time skip sequence that has already been filmed). And if they do well, Cameron has said that he has plans to make two more.

He really likes Avatar.

Some holographic history projectors that fell through time from 2254 only briefly mention the upcoming Avatar sing-along, so it's getting closer.

[-] SuperSaiyanSwag@lemmy.zip 52 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

They are beautiful looking films with boring stories. I liked the spectacle of it in 3D, but fuck was it the boring after an hour.

[-] ripcord@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

fuck was it the ring after an hour.

That sounds trippy

That's because it's the wrong avatar. We need a sweet ATLA game.

[-] deus@lemmy.world 15 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

There's a guy making an ATLA fangame for quite some time now.

[-] BartsBigBugBag@lemmy.tf 10 points 5 months ago

That’s a Dreams game, and as much as I love dreams, it’s really more suited to experiences than it is full fledged games. It does look great though.

[-] Fades@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Dreams games aren’t actual games in the traditional sense

[-] DashboTreeFrog@discuss.online 8 points 5 months ago

There's a decent Legend of Korra game by Platinum. Simple, short beat-em-up in the style of something like Devil May Cry or Bayonetta

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 30 points 5 months ago

I thought this was about the third movie and I got really bummed.

[-] DdCno1@kbin.social 29 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I got really indifferented, because I don't even remember the plot of the first film anymore. Also because it's the triple-whammy of awfulness, a mobile MMO by Tencent.

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 18 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

spoiler for the first Avatar movie

It's just Fern Gully

[-] Ifera@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

I thought it was just Pocahontas with robots, but I had just watched the animated version around a week before I saw the first blue Avatar.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 9 points 5 months ago

Don't forget Dances With Wolves! That's another one it's similar to.

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 8 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Your description is also correct, according to the transitive property of Fern Gully/Pocahontas films.

[-] iamtrashman1312@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

But objectively worse because Avatar doesn't feature Tim Curry

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago

True.

[-] Aielman15@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

mobile MMO by Tencent

So many red flags, they could start a communist revolution.

[-] DdCno1@kbin.social 4 points 5 months ago

Or populate a comment section on lemmy.

[-] falsem@kbin.social 7 points 5 months ago

It was basically Fern Gully

[-] BreadstickNinja@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Don't slander Fern Gully like that

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 5 points 5 months ago

The plot was alien sex

[-] mostNONheinous@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

The plot of Avatar is just Aliens if you flip the alien and human perspective…

If you as a half life fan are still waiting to learn what happened after Alyx' father's encounter with that one combine thing... I admire your naivety
