Well by now everyone knows that Avatar will be the most grossing movie in the world everywhere. Of course the studio thinks it’s about the 3D because this is a 3D movie all the while when it goes into production.
It is amazing what a producer can do when they really put their mind into it. It’s James Cameron. I’m sure the adventure have not been the most easy going for everyone but the push is needed for the cost is sky high and the quality must be met. And only a great director can do that. I have no doubt the scope of work being put into Avatar is no small matter with doing 3 Lord of the Rings movie put together.
I do agree the movie is made for 3D only. And if the studio thinks they are going to get a piece of it this year or next…. I think they are really wrong. When there are more choices, the demand would be bigger than the usual Final Destination or even Avatar. Audience would want more than that.
With Avatar, you even get a fear of height from it. That’s how good it is. Can every movie be that good? So if the studio jump the gun too fast they are in for a big budget deficit from it.
I must say not every audience would appreciate wearing a heavy glass on a boring movie that would cost even more and in the end it’d become another Hong Kong movie scene. Where the price is sky high and everyone is choosing to watch the movie on the net rather than the cinema.
As for whether Avatar would get the Best Movie. It’d be a great story to have one like Avatar to get the Best Movie. They already got the money to do all the move they needed to do it. To get 4 times the return compare to the cost of Avatar is amazing, that ‘s why the studio is going with the formula too. But in my opinion only a couple of movies for all of the hundreds 3D movie that will make it this year on the box office.
I’m sure though that like Titanic. The movie will take home most of the technical awards it’s nominated. And that should quite well lead to Best Movie. And there will be quite some joke on it too.
As for the ticket sales it will continue, might not be as long time coming as Titanic but it will be well through 2 Billion in my opinion when it’s finished.
