I am breathlessly awaiting this film, and I trust that the scripts will indeed be even better than the first, which did have a fantastic script.

Asia loves Avatar, will China be the first to single region to break the $1b dollar milestone? I think so. Just watch Jim Cam make the sweetest deal and allow Avatar to stay in cinemas for 3 times as long.

 

Also it begs an important question, will we have to start saying North America instead of Domestic? I sure hope so, it's about time we didn't use such a conceited word.

Sigourney Weaver Talks Avatar Sequels Development
http://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/793945-exclusive-sigourney-weaver-talks-avatar-sequels-development#/slide/1

 

“I think what he’s been doing is trying to develop the technology,” Weaver clarified to us. “We’re going to do all four simultaneously, so I think he’s trying to make sure that he has really done all the groundwork so when he really starts these four we’ll be able to hit the ground running. So I don’t think he’s actually… he IS experimenting. I don’t know if any of that would end up in the movie ’cause it’s not actually any of the story, but I’m sure he’s trying to figure out how to photograph an animal in this situation, things like that, so on the day he doesn’t have to waste time finding that out.”
 

We then asked if she’s been a part of any of this “experimentation” phase in the development of the Avatar sequels.

“Conversationally, yes,” Weaver confirmed. “I’ve read three of the four scripts and if you liked the first one hold onto your hat. It is so ambitious and it is so moving. Nothing like it.”

Every hype sentence Sigourney says is another $100m WW.

Avatar is the top franchise for 3rd world (2nd world) nations

 

Star Wars is the top franchise for 1st world nations

 

This is why Avatar's basic story of unobtanium is so effective.

Such as this?

 

Apparently, one of the film’s main stars seems to think so as well, and while recently speaking with THR, Sigourney Weaver seemed to cast doubt on the sequel’s current release date. When asked about the film, Weaver said thinks it’s doubtful it will actually be released in December 2018 after all, since they haven’t even begun shooting it yet:

More time to build hype!

Seriously though it would be an annoyance, it's original release date was in just 7 days. I'm sure this thread can have even more build up until the atom bomb drops.

Sigourney Weaver: Next ‘Avatar’ Scripts Are ‘Many Times More Amazing’ Than First One

How many times? 2,3,4? I need a number.

10x, approximately the same amount of times TFA is worse than A New Hope.

Hmm, I'll pass then. I was hoping for something more like 50-100x.

If Rogue One beats this I reserve trolling/triggering rights.

 

K, time to avoid this freak show thread until 2025 with the sequel drops.

A big if you got there friend, I bet you were hopeful TFA would beat Avatar when it was breaking American records. In fact I'm pretty sure you were.

 

Didn't even beat Titanic in the end! Lol

Imagining that the sequel will actually be released this decade!

Guys, when is this coming out? Cause I'm listening to NTIP and at around 58-59 min mark, Jason says that he's hearing from industry people that Han Solo movie is moving to December 2018. But because he isn't 100% sure, those are just industry murmurs, he's not putting the info on his site yet. So if Disney locks December for all Star Wars movies, what does that mean for Avatar? Cause the idea was to alternate SW and Avatar in that slot, each coming out every two years.
