Disney has teased that the new “Avatar” theme park will open next year in time for the entertainment conglomerate’s “Awaken Summer” event. The company also showcased a revealing new video that gives people a glimpse at just how far the effects have evolved since the release of the world’s most successful film of all time in the box-office back in 2009.
The push-back in the release date of “Avatar 2” from December 2017 to a December 2018 release date may be a big issue to fans, who have been waiting for the sequel to the most successful film in history, but it is not a big deal to James Cameron.
For Cameron, the release date of the movie is not as important as its storyline, its setting, and photography. The director is not the type who makes a big fuss about making it on time or beating deadlines. Because for him, coming up with a quality movie is what’s important.
That has been his trademark and his success as a filmmaker is very obvious with “Avatar” and “Titanic” which happen to be the top two highest-grossing movies of all time.
Success takes time and Cameron is obviously a patient worker, preferring to do things in his own timeline. So when 20th Century Fox recently removed “Avatar 2” from its December 2017 schedule, it becomes clear that the release date of the movie has been pushed back further to a December 2018 release date.
