Oh, for love of...!
Cameron, please stop teasing us by giving us hope, crushing it, and then trying to give us hope again. Either make the movie or don't. Please.

I expect that within a few days we'll have the headline, "James Cameron Might Do Stuff Eventually, But It Might Just Be Avatar, or Maybe Not." ANN is perfectly right to report it, but this has gotten silly.

Y'know F--K IT!!! Every time I hear this story it just pisses me off. Either you're going to make it or you're not. Hell, he shouldn't even have said he'd consider it because now it's like you're bugging him. So what the Blankety Blank Blank is he waiting for? I guess in his mind the wait will be worth it because y'know he did Avatar and he's a god of special effects now that people will flock to. Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Mad Mad

i'll be happy if he didn't make it, he wont do it justice anyway so why bother. Its possible to make a good Bttle angel movie but he'll have hollywood breathing down his neck and they crap all over anything good.

This is a person who has more ambition than time. We should all be so blessed to have this kind of problem. I'm a bit jealous of that I have to admit.

Glad he still has some interest in still doing it.

And that's all I have to say. I no longer feel the need to stress out over whether or not he's going to make it.

We're at the irrefutable point where anyone still hoping for this would be better off forgetting about it, moving on, and being surprised later if it actually was made. The back-and-forth nature of this is ridiculous.

None of articles led me to believe he wasn't planning to make it, just as this one says not for a few years. People keep asking him the same questions but in different ways. There has basically been 3 of these articles recently that all said the same thing on here.

Battle Angel Alita will take place three movies after the original Avatar: ie., Avatar IV: Earth after Pandora.

I'd just as soon he gets any eco-activism stories out of his system before moving into using the scrap-heap of a floating city as a starting/primary location. Otherwise, it could easily turn into Sydney's Avatar 4.

With the power Cameron now wields, he doesn't need to yield to Hollywood.

People keep asking him about it.

When he originally said he was gonna do this, it was right before Titanic hit. Who knew he would become the world's SUPEREPICBILLIONDOLLAR director in the years afterwards? Now everyone's gonna keep asking him about his projects.

Get used to it. Me, I've stopped holding my breath.
