Ehhhh.... It's high budget for sure, but I'm just not convinced live action avatar will ever be good. They could've remastered the cartoon with a fraction of the budget.

If you want something new, make something new. Otherwise this is just a marketing product repackaging peoples childhoods and trying to sell it back to them.

I don't care? If it's fun, and more people get to enjoy it, why is that bad? Let them play again in the same sandbox. It's bad when an industry becomes too reliant on that type of media, and it's bad when the content is, you know, bad, like the movie. But if it's good content then why get a bug in your ass over some economic principle?

There's room in the world for all of these things. You can comment on the industry trend without shitting on a specific product that isn't even out yet
