Over the years, the epic science fiction film about the alien world of Pandora has amassed an incredible $2.84 billion in revenue, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.empireonline.com\/movies\/news\/james-cameron-avatar-trolls-see-movie-shut-the-f-up-exclusive\/\">Empire<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Way of Water\u201d doesn\u2019t premiere until December 2022, but fans have already been buzzing about it since the trailer was released. Now Cameron is responding to early criticism, plus formulating responses to what he believes negative reviews will say.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe trolls will have it that nobody gives a s*** and they can\u2019t remember the characters\u2019 names or one damn thing that happened in the movie,\u201d the Academy Award-winner told Empire. \u201cThen they see the movie again and go, \u2018Oh, okay, excuse me, let me just shut the f*** up right now.\u2019 So I\u2019m not worried about that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One detail Cameron believes will come up is the length of the film, which is right around three hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want anybody whining about length when they sit and binge-watch [television] for eight hours,\u201d Cameron told the publication. \u201cI can almost write this part of the review. \u2018The agonizingly long three-hour movie\u2026\u2019 It\u2019s like, give me a f***ing break. I\u2019ve watched my kids sit and do five one-hour episodes in a row. Here\u2019s the big social paradigm shift that has to happen: it\u2019s okay to get up and go pee.\u201d<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p>Previously, Cameron had discussed how the franchise is similar to another famous project.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a family drama, so it\u2019s \u2018The Godfather.\u2019 Obviously a very different genre [and]\u00a0 a very different story but I got intrigued by that idea, so that\u2019s really what it is,\u201d Cameron told <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2018\/04\/james-cameron-amc-sci-fi-series-oscar-snubs-terminator-avatar-sequels-1202373780\/\">Deadline<\/a> in 2018.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a generational family saga very different than the first film. Now, it\u2019s the same type of settings and the same sort of respect for that shock of the new that we want to show you things that not only that you haven\u2019t seen, but you haven\u2019t imagined, \u201d he continued, explaining how the movie won\u2019t be what audiences expect.<\/p>\n<p>The original \u201cAvatar\u201d earned nine Oscar nominations and three wins, but the long-delayed sequel has been mocked and criticized as technology has changed so much since 2009. Some critics think the hype is just too much to live up to.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Director James Cameron is not mincing words for early critics of the new movie, \u201cAvatar: The Way of Water.\u201d The Canadian filmmaker had a lot to live up to, considering that the first \u201cAvatar\u201d (2009) went on to become one of the top-grossing movies of all time.
