So if this flops, according to Cameron, no Avatar 4 or 5.

I got my tickets.
I really hope their magic animal friends don't suddenly become sentient and save the day again.

“Trying to spare hyperbole, but I’ve never seen anything like this from a technical, visual standpoint. It’s overwhelming. Maybe too overwhelming…. Someone texted me, ‘what’s the most visually impressive part of the movie?’ And I responded, ‘The whole thing honestly’. Also, I rewatched the first ‘Avatar’ over the weekend and basically settled on ‘that was fine.’ The sequel has much better and deeper character development… [Also] this is the first movie I’ve ever seen use the high frame rate trick that I’ve actually liked. Yeah, leave it to James Cameron to crack that one.” – Mike Ryan, Uproxx
“Happy to say #AvatarTheWayOfWater is phenomenal! Bigger, better & more emotional than #Avatar, the film is visually breathtaking, visceral & incredibly engrossing. The story, the spectacle, the spirituality, the beauty – this is moviemaking & storytelling at its absolute finest… It is Cameron in top form, matching tremendous visuals w/ a VERY entertaining & emotional story that leaves you wanting more. LOVED! I felt similar after #AvatarTheWayOfWater than I did after #TopGunMaverick in that it reminds you why we love movies & why we anticipate big spectacle on the big screen.” – Erik Davis, Fandango
“James Cameron once again shows filmmakers how it’s done. I’ve said it a thousand times. Never doubt him. AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER is how you do epic blockbuster-ing. Emotional, visceral, and as big as movies get.” – Josh Horowitz, Happy Sad Confused
“Unsurprisingly, #AvatarTheWayOfWater is a visual masterpiece with rich use of 3D and breathtaking vistas. It does suffer from a thin story and too many characters to juggle, yet James Cameron pulls it together for an extraordinary final act full of emotion and thrilling action.” – Ian Sandwell, Digital Spy
“I had faith James Cameron would raise the bar w/ the effects but these visuals are mind-blowing. One stunning frame after the next. But the thing I dug most is how the technical feats always feel in service of character & world-building. As for the story, it’s A LOT of movie & I’m eager for a 2nd viewing to revisit some details, but on 1st watch, it’s a mighty effective exploration of community & family dynamics.” – Perri Nemiroff, Collider
“It’s a better, more complex story than the first with solid emotion but the characters could grow a bit more. It’s definitely long, running on incredible visuals & techniques which are 3D’s best..” – Brandon Davis, Bloody Disgusting
“I saw you #AvatarTheWayOfWater – if you think you’ve seen #Avatar think again. Only repeat from the OG is that ‘never experienced anything like it’ awe. Better than 1st? Easily. The 3D water world & creatures are so surreal it is downright moving. There’s a major Titanic homage.” – Nikki Novak, Fandango

A friend of mine saw this yesterday at a press screening in NY… I trust her opinion in all things sci-fi and fantasy. She said it was by far the best movie of the year - if not the (admittedly young) decade. I was skeptical reading this in the AM before hitting the screens. Now… after seeing the reactions… I'm starting to believe her. WTF James Cameron.

I've never condoned the Cameron vitriol that's grown over the years, but even his most staunch fans had to be wondering if he could do it again.

According to theSpool.net review, the movie will make you blind.
If that isn't an endorsement, nothing is.

It just got certified. Cameron to Hollywood… Wonder Woman 1984 was certified at one point but it ended up at 58%. I doubt that will happen to Avatar. For the good of the community, I will refrain from further commentary on WW84…
Even if Avatar 2 ends up with a 0% RT, the real high bar for success is that he actually finished it.
In the years since Avatar, we've listened to hundreds of people say the sequel would never happen. As a new generation of filmgoers has been introduced to his work, we've seen public sentiment turn against the man. Classics like Aliens, The Terminator, and T2 have been reappraised as clichéd and derivative.
A lesser man would have said, 'fuck it, I'm rich anyway,' and parted ways with all this nonsense. But all the while, he just worked on the thing. Rewrite after painful rewrite, meeting after meeting, obstacle after obstacle… and he got it done.
Without even so much as a minor leak that he or his partners didn't share themselves…
The biggest rumor in 13 years was, "well, gee, my sources say it takes place underwater. Now on to the news over at Marvel. Brie Larson is to where argyle socks on the third day of Captain Marvel shoot. Click here for full coverage."
If it only banks a dollar, it's a win in my book.

Lord Death Man , "Classics like Aliens, The Terminator, and T2 have been reappraised as clichéd and derivative." Who the heck said that? Every person with a nose ring under the age of 25. They revel in all of the female empowerment you see in modern CBMs not realizing Cameron and Scott introduced it to the blockbuster age of film.
