I still don't get how this developed such a massive fan base, yet is almost entirely forgotten right now.

The "why did everyone forget about Avatar meme" is laughable when you consider what current franchises are actually considered "memorable"...essentially filler shoved down everyones throats by the studios.

>no sequels
We are getting 4 sequels which are being filmed at the same time
>>
>>71936889
No sequels released since the original

It will have been NINE years since the first movie came out when part 2 comes out.

>>71936931
Any decent info about the plot? I cant imagine they could or will have the same characters again
>>
>>71936954
Yes all the same characters but I hear Avatar 2 will mainly take place underwater.
>>
>>71936976
Everyone has already fucking heard that. I want to know HOW.
Pretty much all the humies have gone, unless they come back but then its the same old shit.
What the Naavi go live underwater like the gungans from phantom menece?
>>
>>71936799
It kicked off the 3D fad again and people liked the world building. That's it. The movie itself wasn't all that great so once people got over those things, it was forgotten.

Why can't Cameron go back to R Rated arthouse movies instead of becoming a sellout...
>>
>>71936799
I mean it didn't have a fan base so much as people went to the theatre to get the sensory experience of it multiple times. Not sure there was ever lasting attachment to the movie beyond an appreciation of the spectacle.
>>
>this developed such a massive fan base

what? It didnt. Thats why its forgotten.
>>
don't confuse "150 million dollars marketing budget" with "massive fan base"

well meme'd
>>
>>71937563
The Terminator 1984 is arthouse.

The tech on display was fully intended to make the audience as much a part of the show as the show. It was a tech demo, and it furthered his personal ambitions, which were developing filming tech for his personal pet projects. Imagine a man with so much money he doesn't know what to do with it.. but, he actually did know, had a plan, and did it? Chris Columbus? nah. He was drumming up support for his dive. He literally went where nobody had before.

Fuck I hope Abatap comes back with Avatar 2.

It's like Star Wars or anything else. As soon as they announce a new one everyone will be the ultimate fan, and it's all they'll talk about.
