I have to admit that James Cameron can do sequels well, and people know that. But I think it really depends on the trailers for OW. If it looks 1. Original, 2. Graphical awesome, it'll be big!
I think they might wait a year and see how DVD's go potentially? Hopefully they learn from the mistake with Firefly. I can potentially see a season 2 coming, but I think it really depends on Spielberg.
Probably one of the best films I have seen this year, really connected to me on multiple emotional levels. It also was paced moderately, allowing for the characters to be explored adequately. The Apes also looked insanely real. (Thanks to Andy Serkis)
Considering I didn't see Cars 1 this was something new for me. Sadly it wasn't a 'pixar' film, but it was still one of the more entertaining kids movies recently.
I actually really like it! Its kind of a mix of Stargate SG1 and Universe with a few other Sci-Fi shows chucked in together. Its moving fast enough for me, good character building and pretty decent storyline so far. And its not too cheesy!
Do we have any doctor who fans in here? This is probably the only TV show i watch live when it screens on TV Says something about my lack of TV watching!
Hardly embarrassing. If it made any more then 550m then I think that would be a real achievement. International is where I can see it not fall as much (or possibly increase??)
Some early estimates for me:Breaking Dawn 1 - 340M Sherlock Holmes 2 - 380M Tintin - 500M Chipmunks 3 - 230MMission Impossible 4 - 280MThe Muppets - 2700MHappy Feet 2 - 260MIts a hard summer this one, lots of wild cards!
I think it has a massive range from about 400-700 depending on if it does the first one justice. If its seen as even similar to the first one it'll bring in the crowds. But if its at all seen as a disappointment then it might have short legs.
But back to avatar It will make its release date, have a massive OW, then have little legs.. while A3 will have a lesser OW but longer legs! Well probably not, but that is how these things usually go!
