I don't know. I didn't feel the impact of Avatar either but you are recalling event movies (outside of Titanic) that happened during peak social media/meme era where all that shyt is goin viral.. I think Avatar would probably be the same, 2009 social media was far different than it is today but like I said I don't recall an impact.

I feel like The Dark Knight had more cultural impact because it's still talked about endlessly whereas I never see Avatar discussed anywhere.

Then the Matrix in 1999, or the Sixth Sense in 1999, or even the Blair Witch Project in 1999 (more for the hype tho)

Avatar didn't break into to the cultural zeitgeist at all despite making all of that money. It was bizarrely not a phenomenon.

Story was ass cheeks but it was a visual spectacle.

The 3D shyt was appealing but I've seen this movie twice and have no desire to watch it again.

When Endgame drops, I will be watching that shyt over and over again just like I've done with Infinity War and a plethora of other MCU flicks

the visuals lived up to the hype, but otherwise a very forgettable movie, to the point i'm really not sure how a sequel matters at this point, a decade later. i guess i wont doubt cameron's ability to push visual efx further, but that's the ONLY thing that would pique my interests

 

[ChatGPT-5]

still the greatest 3D IMAX experience ever for me, not Liemax, but real IMAX
shyt was floating in the air around you

This.

I was in the States when I saw it. That was the most epic visual of all time. Looked like you were in there, shyt was so clear I forgot I didn't have my contacts on.

Ain’t no movie that’s straight gimmick doing that kinda bread bruh. And it’s 3.3 bills in 2019 dollars is even more insane

Ur not understanding how easily manipulated the masses are...

 

[JodyHiighroller]

Saw that shyt on a plane back in the day. Don’t even remember what it was about.

I fully understand. People just need to understand that just because you and your circle don't fukk with something, it doesn't mean that others don't. You have to see a movie multiple times to generate that kinda bread

i dont know anyone who went to see it in theaters

I was in Thailand when I saw it...theater was packed.

The story was simple but the execution was flawless.

And people forget that all of the Navi were played by black actors so Avatar = black excellence

This.

There were reports of people feeling sadness and depression after the movie.
Avatar blues?

It was so immersive that people got the 'avatar blues' because they felt more connected (or wanted too) to pandora than actual reality. The movie is over and they're sad they're back on earth.

Can't wait for the sequel

Day one
