Despite the fact that neither the return of Star Wars nor Marvel’s Avengers could dethrone Avatar as the all-time worldwide box office champ, the reasons people think the Avatar sequels will fail are not hard to figure out.
It’ll be over a decade since the first film by the time Avatar 2 arrives, striking well after the iron was hot.
In the years since the first film, as Avatar 2 kept getting kicked further down the road, a belief emerged which now seems to be the prevailing one regarding the Avatar sequels: that they will fail.
There were times it seemed like it was never going to happen, but with principal photography now finished, in about two years we will finally get to see the long-delayed sequel to James Cameron’s 2009 mega-hit Avatar.
