Once you get into Reloaded and Revolutions it's basically one long movie that's been chopped into two. Now with Avatar, the first was okay. The main draw was it's visuals and 3D but I certainly wouldn't say it's story was anything ground breaking. So they're filming 3 more movies? Where are they going to go with this?
It looks like Cameron is taking a different approach with the Avatar films. It sounds like each movie will take place in a different locale in the solar system from the original film. The second one is suppossed to be largely underwater. The third and fourth are potentially on different moons.

....can't believe I'm defending Cameron on this. I though Avatar was pretty average.
