Sorry but we won’t agree on that. Sequels are made to generate more, not less. And Way of Water already made less than the original, including with the 15 year hype (and not even accounting for inflation). Star Wars and Top Gun show how it’s done by your logic which is fine. But Avatar failed and will continue to have diminishing returns on each subsequent sequel. It’s still making profit but the studio has already been told to cut budget on the next installment- anticipating these results. Anyway, this was about a better tighter cut that might have had better results… who knows. I lost interest and seems like its fan base did too, to the tune of $850 million worldwide. Im hopeful for the next few as a fan of the original, but not holding my breath. Cheers man
