Avatar 2

[Henry88]

[quote]Avatar’s success has gone far beyond anyone’s expectations by grossing over 2 billion dollars worldwide leaving its Titanic predecessor in the dust. James Cameron has already acknowledged that he has plans for a full Avatar trilogy, but where will the story pick up? Over at MarketSaw they’ve managed to get the inside scoop on what we can expect from Avatar 2.

According to their inside sources, Cameron is under “immense pressureâ€

Don't care for it. The only reason I saw the first one is because someone else was paying for it.

UPDATE 7:20 AM: We just learned that James Cameron is telling Hollywood that Fox made a "huge" donation to his environmental green fund, and in return he committed to making the Avatar sequel and threequel his next films. That also caused him to withdraw from Sony Pictures' Cleopatra with Angelina Jolie, even though he'd told the studio that he'd always wanted to film the Queen Of The Nile's story.

WEDNESDAY 6 AM: With this move, Twentieth Century Fox effectively ties up James Cameron through December 2015, apparently putting a hold on Sony Pictures' hopes for the director to helm a fast-tracked Cleopatra starring Angelina Jolie in 2012:

[quote]Moving forward with the most anticipated films of the next decade, Fox Filmed Entertainment Chairmen Jim Gianopulos and Tom Rothman announced today that Academy Award®-winning filmmaker James Cameron has agreed to make AVATAR 2 and 3 as his next films.

Cameron, who had always viewed AVATAR as the creation of a new world and mythology, will begin work on the scripts early next year with an eye towards commencing production later in 2011. Cameron will decide if he will shoot the films back-to-back after he completes the scripts, but the release of the first, as yet untitled sequel, is targeted for December 2014, with the third film contemplated for a December 2015 release.

AVATAR 2 & 3 will be produced by Cameron and Jon Landau for Cameron’s Lightstorm Entertainment.

“AVATAR is not only the highest grossing movie of all time, it is a created universe based on the singular imagination and daring of James Cameron, who also raised the consciousness of people worldwide to some of the greatest issues facing our planet,â€

I just hope the sequels are better than the first one. As ashamed as I am to say it here, if it's got the great effects of the first and all the action, I'll probably end up seeing it.

Will the 2nd film follow the plot of the straight to VHS Pocahontas sequel?

PASS.

See, this is what people get for not going to watch JOHN CARTER of Mars -- we'll get more of the derivative works instead of adaptations of Burroughs' works. (Of course, it's Disney's fault really. Sometimes it seems like they undermined JC so that THE AVENGERS would get the honest advertising push)

Not that AVATAR is a bad movie, Cameron did a good job presenting his take on the Burroughsian Adventure. But I was so looking forward seeing The Gods of Mars and The Warlord of Mars
