Seriously, did anyone here actually watch Avatar or even discussed the film after it's release?

It's forgettable cat people pocahauntas in space shit. Video games have better graphics than that. The CGI wasn't even that impressive.

You would be a fool to think Disney bought Star Wars because of the film rights alone. The merch was the much bigger draw. It always has been. Lucas made the vast majority of his money from toys
>>
Me and this older guy next to me has this "wtf" face after the credits rolled. Just that feeling of how they ruined something so great.

1) Han Solo fucking dies and literally NO ONE CARES. Leia looks constipated for a second and then what does she do? HUGS NEW GIRL OVER CHEWIE? Fuck that. I literally groaned out loud at that.

2) As stated above there was NO chemistry with Dindu and StronkWomynz. The race mixing agenda was so obvious it was disgusting. Dindu even asks her, "Do you have a boyfriend, a cute boyfriend." and it was meant to be funny. Everyone in the theater sat stone faced at that shit.

3) Arbitrarily finding Luke's older saber again and "Its a long story" yeah one that is probably more interesting than this shit movie.

4) Moved so fast I couldn't connect with anybody, not that I even wanted to.

5) Muh courageous black man versus muh evil white man. Fuck that. Its like they made the First Order purposefully over the top evil and retarded, but also comically shit even though they have all this money and backing to destroy ENTIRE SYSTEMS. Its like some SJW wet dream circle jerk fantasy.

Fuck this movie

You're a fool to think that Disney makes their own toys, or that George Lucas had a toy company.

George Lucas made over 4 billion dollars by selling the rights to Star Wars. Are you saying he made more than that, himself, by licensing toys? Did Kenner make him 5 billion in the '80s?

Star War s is much bigger than the films. I don't know why you cant accept this. Lucas agreed to keep his directors salary at $150,000 in exchange for keeping the merchandise rights and the rights to any sequels.

I don't care either way, but it is shocking that some shitty pocahontas rip off with shitty CG like avatar was somehow a bigger draw than star wars, which is essentially the biggest pop culture icon in america as far as film goes.

The prequels must have really been the final straw

Lucas negotiated his contact for Star Wars with a pay cut to his salary in exchange for like 40% of the toy rights because he knew that's what would make a ton of money

Titanic secured a shitload of different audiences.

Men went for the action.
Women went for the love story.
Young women went for DiCaprio.
Lots of people went just because it's a really famous incident in american history.

TFA wasn't pc enough. Avatar was anti-human and pro-xeno therefore better.

This is the exact kind of juggling act that Cameron's good at. Avatar was the exact same story. Action packed sci-fi with shitloads of fight and chase scenes tied in with a romantic Pocahontas love story.
Market to both sexes and you've effectively marketed to everyone.
