One might be forgiven for considering, after 13 years, that an Avatar sequel would by no means see the sunshine of day. James Cameron went off did different issues; he moved to New Zealand, he experimented with farming, he may by no means have come again to motion pictures. Then he stated he was returning to make extra Avatar motion pictures — 4 of them! — however they stored getting pushed again. Yr after yr, the promised sequels acquired delayed time and again. Lots of people gave up hope.
Effectively, the primary of 4 potential sequels, Avatar: The Manner of Water, is lastly scheduled to return to theaters subsequent month. And one indication that this film actually is occurring this time is that it simply obtained its official ratting from the MPAA. They rated The Manner of Water PG-13 “for sequences of robust violence and intense motion, partial nudity and a few robust language.”
That matches the PG-13 ranking that the unique Avatar obtained — though it was rated for considerably totally different causes. In that case, Cameron acquired a PG-13 for “intense epic battle sequences and warfare, sensuality, language and a few smoking.”
So how do the 2 movies differ? Effectively, for one factor, you’re not going to see anybody smoking onscreen in The Manner of Water. (You nearly by no means see anybody smoking in American motion pictures anymore, except it’s some form of a interval piece, and even then, it’s uncommon.) Each motion pictures have violence, however Avatar had “epic battle sequences” whereas The Manner of Water apparently solely has “robust violence” and “intense motion,” suggesting the set-pieces could also be a little bit extra intimate (and rather less like a sci-fi struggle film) than the final time. And whereas the unique Avatar had “sensuality” this one supposedly has “partial nudity.” Make of that what you’ll.
Avatar: The Manner of Water is scheduled to open in theaters on December 16.
