I got a question about Avatarland. Suppose the second film flops. What would happen then?
ReplyDeleteExactly my thought. I think Disney jumped for this franchise a little too fast. Avatar was extremely popular, but who said anyone will still be interested in the next three movies? How do they know people will be interested when it opens in 2017?
DeleteHarry Potter proved to be successful over and over again, so it made sense for Universal to build the area, but for Avatar, I don't think their heads were on straight.
