The epic sci-fi giant "Avatar 2" is set for 12.26! Remember how popular "Avatar" was?


came out after a long wait! The schedule of " Avatar 2", the sequel to the epic sci-fi blockbuster "Avatar" has finally been confirmed! According to information from various information websites, "Avatar 2: The Way of Water" directed by James Cameron will be released in North America on December 16, 2022.

It is reported that "Avatar 2: The Way of Water", directed by James Cameron, is 190 minutes long, nearly half an hour longer than the 162 minutes of the first "Avatar" North American release.

"Avatar 2" is the continuation of the first part of the plot. It tells that several years after "Avatar 1", Jack has become the patriarch of the Na'vi , and he has also formed a family with his wife Neytini. The two have a pair lovely children.

Until one day, the accidental death of the tribe brothers broke their peaceful life. Jack guessed that there were human avatars mixed into the tribe and together with the tribe to fight against the evil forces.

"Avatar 2" has a stronger cast starring Sam Worthington , Zoe Saldana , Sigourney Weaver , Kate Winslet , Michelle Yeoh , David Thewlis, Vin Diesel and other starring roles, the production cost expanded to 310 million US dollars (about 2.24 billion yuan). The schedule of

is now confirmed in North America. I believe that the domestic release time will not be too late, and it may even be released at the same time. After all, judging from the current domestic box office results, the box office results that Chinese audiences can contribute cannot be ignored. The only thing that attracts fans' attention now is whether "Avatar 2", which costs 2.2 billion and is more than 3 hours long, can surpass the box office myth of "Avatar" of 20 billion?

On March 12, 2021, "Avatar" was re-released in mainland China. This legendary work that opened up a new era of 3D movies was released at the end of 2009. After breaking the box-office record in Chinese and foreign film history, it is still strong when it re-enters the big screen. One day, "Avatar" once again surpassed "Avengers 4: Endgame" and once again became the single-piece box office champion of global film history with the box office contributed by domestic audiences. The domestic re-screening of

"Avatar" earned nearly 400 million yuan at the box office in just one month. This is a re-screening. In dozens of relatively large movie markets around the world, it is not easy for a re-screened film to reap the high box office again. Like China's former box office champion "Wolf Warrior 2", the total box office of the re-screening is only more than 9.5 million yuan. China's current box office champion " Changjin Lake ", the re-screening box office is less than 300,000 yuan. The " Red Sea Operation ", which has a very impressive reputation and premiere box office, has only 1.97 million yuan at the re-screening box office. can see how powerful the box office appeal of "Avatar" is.

has actually experienced the first release of "Avatar" in China, and only knew that "Avatar" is really popular. It not only upgraded the entire film industry in an all-round way at the technical level, but also a historical work in which the film was promoted from 2D to 3D; "Avatar" was also nominated for nine Oscars, and "Kashen" created a new history and became the The most influential film work in the past ten years, no one.

Thinking back then, "Avatar" not only brought 3D and IMAX and other technologies that are now popular, but also the box office is booming, and it directly topped the global film history single-piece box office champion.

landed in China on January 2, 2010, and won the box office championship for 11 consecutive weeks. In the end, it was conservatively estimated that it won 1.8 billion + box office (current platform data is incomplete), and will be the former record "2012"450 million has increased by several orders of magnitude. How popular was

back then? Anyway, it's not of the same order of magnitude as "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Hello, Li Huanying " in recent years. In the hottest period of the film's release, even if the theater took out 90% of the film, it could not meet the audience's viewing needs, and the news of all kinds of queuing and rushing for tickets even more paved the way, but anyone who has experienced it will definitely have a deep understanding impression. The same is true for

. I still remember that at that time, , Maoyan, and various online movie ticket software were flying all over the sky. At that time, if you wanted to watch a movie, you had to queue up at the cinema in the traditional way, choose a seat, or find someone to grab a ticket. For popular blockbusters like

"Avatar", you have to queue up to grab tickets in advance. At that time, there was only one IMAX theater in our city, . A few days after the movie was released, I heard from my friends that the movie was so good and had 3D effects, so I decided to watch it. The

cinema is on the 5th floor of a large shopping plaza. The mall opens at 9:00, and there are many people waiting at the entrance of the mall at 8:00 in the morning. Over time, you'll notice that every young person who joins the waiting crowd may be your ticket-rushing opponent. Then, at 9 o'clock, as soon as the door of the mall opened, everyone rushed in directly. At that time, it felt too late to wait for the elevator. Everyone thought that it must be difficult to squeeze so many people. Therefore, like most people, we all ran up the stairs. As I said, the cinema is on the 5th floor, so it is very tiring to run to the 5th floor in a row. Fortunately, I was still young at that time, and finally I managed to grab the first movie ticket. Those who came up by elevator It can only be ranked second or even later.

Compared to now, the experience of rushing tickets at that time was really impressive to me. As a result, more than ten years have passed, and I can't even remember many specific details in "Avatar", but I still remember the details of the ticket grabbing very clearly. When

chatted with everyone about this experience, everyone said that "Avatar" was too popular. In order to watch "Avatar", I queued up for more than 2 kilometers in a certain theater. Some said that movie tickets were limited (2 per person) at that time. for viewing a larger IMAX release), these are things that are unthinkable these days. Are you talking about watching a movie? But for them at that time to watch this movie, it was all worth it.

because this movie is really good, the director wrapped a heavy topic and thought-provoking movie in a gorgeous special effect shell, "Avatar" is a movie about the future, haunting the past situation, you can see the rolling The coming life, war and love are extremely magnificent under the background of special effects, and at the end of shock and shock, it seems to see the dimension of history. Looking at it now, I don't think it will be outdated, and the picture is still very attractive. "Avatar" is also the movie with the best 3D effect so far, no one. The fascinating scenery on the planet Pandora in the movie is eye-opening like discovering a new world, novel and amazing. A variety of luminous plants with different forms of consciousness, rushing rivers, majestic waterfalls, and colorful "flying dragons", etc...

"Avatar 2: The Way of Water" will be released soon, It is reported that there are 5 "Avatar" series in total, of which " Avatar 2" and " Avatar 3" are sets of shots. Director Cameron once said that whether " Avatar 4" and "Avatar 5" can be filmed, The key is to see the box office performance of the first three films! Have you seen 1 yet? Looking forward to watching 2? Or in order to have a 4th and a 5th, would you go to see it?
