Titanic was over 3 hours long and it's certainly one of the most rewatched movie in a theater. Same as the first Avatar with little less than 3 hours. Length is only one of many factors that would influence on the decision to rewatch a movie.

 

Your assertion that Avatar 2 would be less rewatchable than NWH or TGM is based on nothing but air

 

 

Or you could say it’s based on getting worse reception on metrics which reliably correlate to legs (cinemascore, verified, etc)?

Cameron film wise, it’s T800 in judgement day.

How CinemaScore grades measured on the first day in theaters have anything to do with rewatchability?

They have to do with (OD audience perceived) quality which has to do with rewatchability. They correlate with legs (imperfectly, and best interpreted with caution) which is just about the best directly BO derived measure of rewatching. But more specifically they are calculated from this form 

 

 

which directly includes intent to rewatch

Could make an argument that Jake Sully is one of, if not, the blandest lead character in any blockbuster I've ever seen. Hopefully Cameron eventually brooms him in the one of the upcoming Avatar sequels.

I disagree, he's was pretty good in A2, I've seen worse.

Jack Torrance or Tim Taylor.  It's a close call IMO.

I remember, but i think it's a too small sample tbh. And i feel CS has being inflated recently depending on the movie, we have a few recent A+ titles that didn't get good legs.

 

Even NWH have significantly worse legs than SW7 which gets an A CinemaScore and they opened the same. 

 

It's obviously a reliable data, way more than anything online, but i think for this discussions it would be more reliable if they track the movies for some weeks instead of just the OD.

 

For example, people who watched NWH on OD is way more inclined to say they intent to rewatch than someone watching it on 2nd weekend, because NWH have a gigantic fanbase that will be there on OD.

Genuinely, early Homer. He wasn't perfect, but in the first few seasons he would lay down his life for his family.

I'll have to think about the final answer, but recently, the father-son dynamic in Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio touched me very deeply this holiday. Was kind of a puddle of tears by the end, I can't lie.

 

Arnie in T2 is exceptional. One of the first that springs to mind. Mufasa in The Lion King? Pa Kent in Superman '78?

This isn't the case in A2 at all, neytiri fans were upset she was put in the backseat for this one

And no wonder movie isn't getting the same kind of hype. Focusing on Jake Sully is waste of time.

You have an extreme amount of bias towards this film and everything about it to the point that you are confused why people don't agree with you about EVERYTHING 😱
