The jakku missions thing inside the SW app really is cool. You can go into the hold of the falcon in a photoreal 3d thing

Does it have that water cooler longevity though?
Definitely has a huge repeat viewing base

A record that took Avatar seven months to set was broken by Star Wars in only twenty days.

I think it's telling 'he waiting for the tech to develop'

What can you do in an avatar sequel except remake the first, basically.
Involve some new civilisations on the same planet. Same fight. Only much bigger.
They are making 3 more avatars, fyi

They'll make one more Avatar, but it won't make good money and that will be it. People aren't out there waiting for Avatar sequels. It was a fluke.
