Avatar 2 in 2015, maybe...

Avatar 2 won't be released until at least 2015. James Cameron is to relocate to New Zealand for part of the production.

Avatar may be the highest-grossing movie of all time, but director James Cameron isn't rushing himself when it comes to making the sequel(s).
In fact, according to a recent profile by The New York Times, Avatar 2 may not open until at least 2015 (and definitely not the 2014 release date previously mooted).

Cameron is said to have bought 2,500 acres of farmland around Lake Pounui in New Zealand, and is expected to live there for at least half a year during production of Avatars 2 and 3 (which he's currently scripting).

The sequels are likely to be shot in Peter Jackson's Wellington production studio, with Weta Digital handling the visual effects, though the motion-capture work will take place in California.

So don't go expecting Avatar 2 for at least a few years. Let's hope that audiences are still interested in seeing it in 2015.

Still looks to open along with the Disney parks rumor of an avatar land at Animal Kingdom.

 So, I posted 3 times and my post wont show up. (Complimenting Cameron on taking it slow to put out a great quality film.)  My fourth post I type "F " You Post!"  (Not the nice way either) And it shows up.  Is there something wrong with this site?

He's making it, that's all that matters.  It's not like we won't have other movies to see before 2015.

I hopr he spends some of the time working on an actual script this time. The first one was just a hodge podge of stories done 1000 times. The only thing it really had going for it was the special effects.

Booooooooooooooo....Mr Cameron, pretty please with sugar on top.....Do a Super Hero movie, lol....

I may be in the minority on this but I really don't give a rat's a$$ about this movie - the first one was just okay to me (yeah, yeah it looked great but the plot was just blah) and I have no need to see, or do I want to see another one of these.
