So they are content with a 200mil/750mil performer instead of going for 250/650 -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 20, 11:47 3
- they are also reportedly tweaking the script so no rush -- nm - slipping jimmy Jan 20, 11:48 2
  - Yeah, we have decided that killing of Rey in the opening sequence might not be such a good idea. -- nm - Disney Jan 20, 11:51 1
    - *films the whole movie, forgetting that Rey was in it* -- nm - Disney Jan 20, 11:52
Disney must like money. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 20, 11:46 17
- the interesting thing is the next Avatar is also scheduled for that Xmas -- nm - slipping jimmy Jan 20, 11:47 16
  - I haven't paid attention to BO trends like I did when I played "that other game" but I thought at the time that... - Mel Profit Jan 20, 11:53 15
    - I think the audience would expand, but the physical infrastructure (enough IMAX screens, etc) would limit how much the movies could make -- nm - Roger More Jan 20, 12:07 5
      - That smells right. I can't imagine, even with all the movie complex dev of the last decade that they could accommodate both - Mel Profit Jan 20, 12:08 1
        
        Especially with the "deal" Disney gave the theaters for Episode VII. -- nm - Spawn Jan 20, 12:10
      - Avatar 2 hasn't even begun filming yet, which for Cameron tells me Disney is confident he won't have it ready by then -- nm - slipping jimmy Jan 20, 12:08 1
        
        Yeah, this wouldn't surprise me. -- nm - Roger More Jan 20, 12:20
      - (But Star Wars 8 would be the clear winner. I don't see the enthusiasm for another Avatar) -- nm - Roger More Jan 20, 12:07
    - maybe, but without knowing what Avatar 2 is even about yet i wouldn't want to be going up against Ep. VIII -- nm - slipping jimmy Jan 20, 11:55 8
      - I think Avatar 2 is about "being Avatar 2". I don't think the story much matters. -- (edited) - Mel Profit Jan 20, 11:59 5
        
        i would be surprised if i care enough about Avatar 2 to even pay to see it. i expect to pay to see Ep. VIII multiple times - slipping jimmy Jan 20, 12:02 4
        
        This. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 20, 12:07
        
        Welcome to the right side. -- nm - Spawn Jan 20, 12:04 2
        
        i haven't changed -- nm - slipping jimmy Jan 20, 12:05 1
        
        You just converged. - Spawn Jan 20, 12:06
      - Good counter-programming - Spawn Jan 20, 11:56 1
        
        it will be litmus test, will the public go black...or blue? -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 20, 11:59
