Kate Winslet's Na'vi leader rides into battle in photo from 'Avatar 2'

Kate Winslet rides into battle as Na'vi leader Rolan in a new photo from 'Avatar: The Way of Water.'

Didn't know that Kate Winslet was it this.
And I love Me some Kate Winslet.

But all my another live-action YES/Roger Dean cracks aside this time,
I can't see (for now anyway) how this will change Cinema Presentation this time out.
And Cameron is notorious for making sure his films are presented in the BEST technological Theater Formats possible.
He had theater chains scrambling to change their presentation parameters the first time out.
Unless this latest outing is being presented in 3D without glasses,
I don't see how it will currently change anything movie presentation-wise.
Because theater chains always tend to be behind when it comes to displaying films by directors like Cameron.

Sigourney Weaver hints at 'goofy' role in 'Avatar' sequel

Sigourney Weaver calls her 'Avatar: The Way of Water' role the "biggest stretch I get to play in every possible way": "I think if Jim Cameron didn't know me really well, he wouldn't have cast me as something as goofy as this."

Sigourney Weaver hints at 'goofy' role in Avatar sequel: 'The biggest stretch I get to play'

"I think if Jim Cameron didn’t know me really well, he wouldn’t have cast me as something as goofy as this."
By Lester Fabian BrathwaiteAugust 30, 2022 at 10:41 PM EDT

Avatar: The Way of Water is finally splashing into cinemas on Dec. 16, some 13 years after the original blockbuster, and it's bringing with it a familiar face in a not-so-familiar role.
Sigourney Weaver, Dr. Grace Augustine in the 2009 film, is back, but this time she's playing Kiri, the adopted daughter of Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saladaña). In a recent sit-down with fellow thesp Elizabeth Banks for Interview magazine, Weaver calls playing the Na'vi adolescent "the biggest stretch" she's ever had to tackle as an actor.

"So Avatar I can't really talk about, but I would say that it's the biggest stretch I get to play in every possible way," Weaver tells Banks. "I think if Jim Cameron didn't know me really well, he wouldn't have cast me as something as goofy as this. I had to work in a completely different way to play this character, a very physical way."

Cameron, whose collaborations with Weaver go all the way back to 1986's Aliens, knew Weaver would be up for the challenge.
"Sigourney just became younger," Cameron told Empire magazine in July. "She looked younger, she had more energy, and she never quite stepped out of Kiri for our whole capture period. She had a glow on her face and lightness in her step and a fun spirit."
Weaver, having gone through her own awkward adolescence as a near-six-foot-tall 11-year-old, "felt strongly that Kiri would feel awkward a lot of the time," she added. "She's searching for who she is. I was thrilled to be given that challenge by Jim."
The 72-year-old went on to detail her rigorous training for the Kiri role to Banks, which included "a lot of parkour. We had to do burpees. We had to do freediving." As a result, she can now hold her breath for six-and-a-half minutes. Which is probably impressive to anyone who's not Kate Winslet.

I take that back,it'll be her character that gets in all the trouble

I can't be the only one that didn't like the first one at all.I've tried to watch it several times and still didn't like it.

[EPDC]

Too many other properties and TV shows or films I'd rather was three hours on. Liked the first one, don't feel the urge to visit Pandora again. Perhaps on a slow and boring weekend during the winter. At home, on the couch on Disney+

Another alien love story, I am not paying to see this.

[BGLR1212000]

I liked it just fine but I dont watch movies I'm not interested in.

 

[veritech]

avatar twotw was worth watching. it did keep my attention. but it wasn't good enough for how long it was.

at one point i came to understand that the movie was more so about visual effects masturbation than actually telling a story.

There was easily an hour that could be cut from the movie and it wouldn't change a thing. maybe more.

james cameron was sitting in the efx studio with a big bottle of lotion and a drink. (pause)

i saw it in dolby 3d on the best screen format in memphis.

there is no dolby cinema here. i would have to drive to nashville for that.

the 3d was the best i have seen.

Avatar was even a discussion until after BP dropped. No one knows the first movie because it was 20+ years ago. The kids (most revenue population) ain’t interested in that shit. They don’t even hit the avatar park at Disney like that. Disney fumbled here but hopefully it doesn’t fuck up Marvel and Star Wars franchises and they have to dump everything like DC is doing.

They're going to have every excuse for why this movie didn't hit that 400 million opening weekend number or the 2 billion worldwide they were bragging about.

So with all the hype it still didn’t do as well black panther 2.

The Way of Water was expected to make $450 million and $550 million in its opening weekend. But the numbers were later revised to $410 million worldwide. The Way of Water has left Marvel Studios’ two sequels, Black Panther 2 and Doctor Strange 2, behind to be the biggest opening of 2022.

The box office media will be quick to judge that 20th Century Studio/Disney’s Avatar: The Way of Water is coming in under its projections, with an opening day of $53M, and 3-day of $130M-$150M. Projections were between $150M-$175M. That’s far off from the opening day of last December’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, which is the second- highest grossing opening day ever at $121.9M, as well as that pic’s opening weekend at $260.1M, which is also the second-highest ever.

However, realize that in the case of Avatar, it’s all about the low supply and high demand for premium seats, and that’s exactly how people want to see this movie.

Imax and PLF tickets are driving 32% of Avatar 2‘s ticket sales for Friday/Thursday previews –a very similar share figure to Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (35%) and Spider-Man: No Way Home (32%) at the same point in time. But then, Avatar 2 also has another 31% in ticket sales from 3D theaters (that’s non PLF & Imax venues; no double counting here).

It’s one indication that Avatar 2 will have a slow burn at the box office. No Way Home and Marvel movies are front-loaded, and that former uber movie saw a -68% decline in weekend 2. We can’t judge Avatar 2 until we get through New Year’s weekend.

The top 129 theaters for Friday/previews for Avatar 2 were all over $50K and were all Imax, Dolby, or XD PLF, I’m told. At $53M, it’s the highest opening day for a Cameron movie, beating the $27M first day of 2009’s Avatar. International running total stands at $127.1M with China, for an all-in global cume to date of $180.1M.

 

[knightmelodic]

Sorry, but we saw it all in the first one. It was novel and new then. Now, not so much. Plus the world has changed read: moviegoing habits have changed since COVID. Things are now skewing towards miniseries on TV eg Loki; Falcon & Winter; Hawkeye; Wanda & Vision; etc
I think it's going to take a while for people to want to see big movies again. Marvel and The Mouse know what's up - they'll cut back on the big movies and make more series in order to lead up to the big movie instead of movies leading up to the big movie.

Basically.

If you've seen Pocahantas or The Last Samurai, you have seen this movie exactly.

White man shows up to indigenous society.
Honors them by fucking their finest and most exalted woman
Fights against his own people because the pussy was fire
Uses his superior white man brain to help the savages win.

Wash, rinse, repeat

Ah, exactly what i thought....3 hours saved.

It’s a sci-fi worthy watch. Only because you like the genre. The fantasy part is typical white man shit hidden by blue people. But we all know them blue folks are “African.”

The sci-fi is worth it, imo.

I'm lookin at the pics and screenshots like...''is that 4c hair?...does that blue nigga have Locs?...WTF?!''

 

[Joe Money]

Just saw this. Amazing visuals. But kind of turned into “Terminator” and “Titanic” at the same time. I’ll never eat tuna fish ever again!

So much time went by in between filming and the 2022 release date that Falco had simply assumed the movie opened in theaters already and just didn’t perform too well.
