charlie Jatinder Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I think in normal times, Avatar would have gone for 75-80M admits, based on how it performed in India, Taiwan and Hong Kong. Now COVID did hurt it but no competition gonna help in some recovery. It will reach 30M+ admits, missing around 45-50M. In terms of $, missing $300M or so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did expect it to hit 100M admits few months back, but Asia performance is under Endgame. In between Endgame and Infinity War in almost all Asian markets, some could be lower than IW.

I personally think A2 is not that good movie,it’s great for a ‘nobody’ director,but consider the director is James Cameron,I don’t think A2 is some kind of masterpiece,definitely not Titanic and Terminator 2 level If A3 can let Cameron back to his creating peak,I’ll see A3 break Worldwide record easily,If A2 ,a not that good movie can gross so much,why A3 with better quality can’t do? The Whole thing is ,will A3 have same Terminator 2 level quality?Will James Cameron come back to his peak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course if A3 turns out awesome, it will reverse the damage of A2, but after A2 I now have doubts on Cameron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are same as me,before Avatar 2 I have always believe James Cameron is the masterpiece maker,he won’t fail by fliming,he is some kind of dream maker who is the memory of my childhood(Terminator 2 and Titanic,I watch these two film when I was a kid again and again and again),but after Avatar2,I just doubt if Cameron get old or something?How is this film is Cameron’s work? I still not lost my faith to him,A3 easily hit 3.5B with Terminator 2 level’s WOM,I try to believe him again And I also think Avatar 2 won’t compare AEG and AIW,more like Age of Ultron,with not good quality but win a “good” box office,AWOW is just like AOU,If Avatar 3 is good,I believe it will have huge jump like AIW and break record everywhere like first Avatar do,we just need to wait,and please try to believe him again,consider he make good stuff almost all of his entire life Edited January 1, 2023 by Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG10 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I really hope it will pass the 1.7B of the first, which I think would translate to 240/250 million dollars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanic2187 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Overall still a awful, underutilized total, especially when compare to SK, HK and Taiwan. But given the unfortunate, this is a as good as it get circumstances. All I want is a 30 days extension and some decent showtimes count over CNY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
