As of February 9, 2010, Avatar has grossed over $2.24 billion in worldwide sales.
He did it for $260 million
The Legend of Korra and James Cameron's Avatar are two different things. They don't have anything in common except for the title Avatar. The Legend of Korra was created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko.
because he had a whole lot of time to make it (which is awesome!)
James Cameron's "Avatar" (2009) has grossed $2.8 billion worldwide.
He was actually making documentaries, but before that he made Titanic.
Well generally it is not a new avatar, just a second film, but yes there will be a second movie that will be released in 2011..
It took 6-7 years to make before it was in theaters
Yes, because it is successful, he said he'll make 2 more movies.
He wrote the treatment for Avatar in 1994, but the necessary technology to make it didn't exist yet. Filming began in 2008, and it came out in December 2009.
To make more money. That's it. Period.
The Director James Cameron wrote the screen play in 1996. He had a dream and saw the world of Pandora. The screenplay was forgotten until 2004 when he decided the technology was ready to make it. It went over some changes but the main story is the same. James Cameron intends to write a novel version of Avatar and create two sequels of Avatar.
