~~Oh no~~

Anyway...

What decade can I expect to stop hearing about that dumbass movie or any echo of it?

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 14 points 9 months ago

Some holographic history projectors that fell through time from 2254 only briefly mention the upcoming Avatar sing-along, so it's getting closer.

if the films go as planned, the fifth one will hit theaters late 2031, he has 'ideas' for two more after that.

and then you'd have the 30th anniversary re-re-release of a re-re-remastered first one... so, maybe, the 2060s?

Why is there such a hate-on for this movie? Like goddamn. Sure it wasn't anything spectacular or groundbreaking (compared to the first one), but it's a goddamn treat to look at and it's fun to watch.

[–] DigitalFrank@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago

Why doesn't everyone like what I like?

They are beautiful looking films with boring stories. I liked the spectacle of it in 3D, but fuck was it the boring after an hour.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

fuck was it the ring after an hour.

That sounds trippy

You're saying the exact same thing as him just more angry....

[–] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

They didn't have to make the plot mediocre and boring. They chose to do so.

Legendary films are those with good story and often high budgets. Avater was not one of them.

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's a game. They are cancelling the game about the film series.

[–] Kiernian@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Thank you for this explanation.

[–] Macallan@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I got bored with it. It was twice as long as it needed to be. I didn't even finish it when I watched it.

Don't you have a phone?

[–] p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 9 months ago

What is this? Quibi?

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 31 points 9 months ago (2 children)

That's because it's the wrong avatar. We need a sweet ATLA game.

[–] deus@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (2 children)

There's a guy making an ATLA fangame for quite some time now.

[–] BartsBigBugBag@lemmy.tf 10 points 9 months ago

That’s a Dreams game, and as much as I love dreams, it’s really more suited to experiences than it is full fledged games. It does look great though.

[–] Fades@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Dreams games aren’t actual games in the traditional sense

[–] DashboTreeFrog@discuss.online 8 points 9 months ago

There's a decent Legend of Korra game by Platinum. Simple, short beat-em-up in the style of something like Devil May Cry or Bayonetta

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 25 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I thought this was about the third movie and I got really bummed.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

I got bummed it wasn't about the damned third movie

[–] Fades@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Oh no whatever will we do if we don’t get another 3hour snooze fest?!

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

Taste is subjective. If you don't like it, that's fine. I thought the first two were enjoyable, even though predictable.

There are other movies out there I'm sure you enjoy that I would find incredibly boring.

[–] june@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I like letting stories finish and would have enjoyed the final installment as much as I did the first two… with mild to moderate enthusiasm.
