    Today marked a special day in the lives of fans of James Cameron‘s “Avatar” film. The sequel, many, many years in the making, has finally had it’s world premiere. As expected, the first reactions to the film are coming in via the usual channels, and so far, reception is positive.

    The most common thing we’re seeing from official press and notable persons who either saw “Avatar: The Way of Water” at the London premiere or at screenings around the world are “Never bet against James Cameron.”

    AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER: Yeah never bet against James Cameron. Trying to spare hyperbole, but I’ve never seen anything like this from a technical, visual standpoint. It’s overwhelming. Maybe too overwhelming. Sometimes I’d miss plot points because I’m staring at a Pandora fish

    Will Avatar 2 hit $2 billion? Who knows, but never bet against James Cameron. Latest newsletter https://t.co/N9dXxwzGAj

    James Cameron's #AvatarTheWayOfWater is a monumental filmmaking achievement striking a great balance between technical & emotional. The 48fps 3D experience features some of the most jaw-dropping immersion I’ve ever seen. Felt like a kid again watching T2 for 1st time. Astounding. pic.twitter.com/cfiMADJzU4

    I don't think words can define my intrigue and excitement for this film. (there's a high chance this is one of those I'll see 3-5 times in the theatre)

    Happy to say #AvatarTheWayOfWater is phenomenal! Bigger, better & more emotional than #Avatar, the film is visually breathtaking, visceral & incredibly engrossing. The story, the spectacle, the spirituality, the beauty – this is moviemaking & storytelling at its absolute finest. pic.twitter.com/RicnpDghrx

    AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER is breathtakingly beautiful with the most incredible VFX I have ever seen (I saw it in 3D); the story itself is weaker than the first and feels drawn out at 3 hours & 10 minutes, but it’s always great to look at & the last hour is amazing. #Avatar pic.twitter.com/8dEhtvRb4P

    There’s no overstating how visually impressive Avatar: The Way of Water is in Dolby 3D. Gorgeous.

    — Brandon Davis (@BrandonDavisBD) December 6, 2022

    Perhaps the most interesting reaction-

    I say it again: Avatar 2 – seeing it you realize how long it has been since you saw a MOVIE-MOVIE (like that, in caps).

    — Guillermo del Toro (@RealGDT) December 7, 2022

    Obviously we all knew it was going to be visually stunning. So that’s no surprise really. But some saying it’s better than the first?

    Guess we’ll all find out when “Avatar: The Way of Water” hits theaters December 23rd, 2023.
