the Market expands to meet demand was the majority decision on this. It would be pretty incredible to see the market expand to accommodate the sequels to the Biggest W/E Record Holders.

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

- 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
