Get ready for an epic Yellow City Comic Convention in Amarillo!

"These kinds of deaths do happen during exciting matches/emotional situations."

Producer Jon Landau posted a picture revealing that the movie has begun filming in New Zealand.

Pool noodles are essential to making ‘Avatar’ movies.

It was the biggest movie in history. Then it was forgotten. But that might actually be a good thing.

The second-biggest movie ever will be streaming on Disney’s new service.

James Cameron has finally started production on his four massive CGI-laden 3D blockbusters with a budget of $1 billion.

The next of James Cameron’s Avatar sequels are officially off and rolling, with visual effects production in full swing today at the Oscar-winning Weta Digital in New Zealand. Cameron changed the game for movies that heavily feature visual effects and performance capture, paving the way for films like Luc Besson’s Valerian and the new Planet of the Apes trilogy. Funny enough, Weta is getting an assist this time around from motion capture tech used in War for the Planet of the Apes.

In honor of ‘Valerian,’ the most expensive French movie ever produced, here’s a list of 16 more films that cost unbelievable amounts of money.

The Avatar franchise has turned into James Cameron’s Xanadu, a vanity project of staggering scale to which the public will seemingly never be permitted access. It’s kept him busy since 2009, as he’s concurrently scripted a whopping four sequels to the immensely lucrative 2009 sci-fi epic. Perhaps, one day, it shall be his tomb. But to us unwashed rabble in the general populace, the grand Avatar franchise is little more than an idea, and a weird idea at that. As our beloved Editor-in-Chief Matt Singer noted not too long ago, pretty much everybody has moved on from Avatar as a cultural touchstone. Cameron seems more jazzed about this plan than anyone else, but he’ll have to put his dreams on hold for a little while longer.

It took Avatar two and half months to become the highest grossing movie of all time. Star Wars: The Force Awakens will surpass its domestic box office gross within the next day or two after less than three weeks in release. The big question now is when J.J. Abrams’ sequel will find its ceiling because as of right now, it’s showing no signs of slowing down.

Two additional follow-ups are planned for 2018 and 2019, so get ready for lots more Sully and Neyteri.
