Is Avatar 2 worth watching?

Personally, I think it is worth seeing.

That winter, a ticket was hard to find.

Avatar was released in North China on June 5438+February 65438+April 2009 (it was released in the mainland on June 2065438+1October 4, 2000). The dreamy and magnificent Pandora planet created by 3D virtual image photography and motion capture technology almost redefined the "exquisite and immersive" viewing experience, which not only triggered a phenomenal viewing craze around the world.

But in fact, Avatar has left us with far more memories than box office data or numerous awards. Remember that winter when there was a long queue at the entrance of Peace Cinema in the cold wind to buy tickets? Crowds can stroll in raffles city along hankou road, Yunnan Middle Road, Fuzhou Road and Tibet Middle Road. Even so, because it had the only IMAX giant screen in Shanghai at that time, 90% of the performances of Avatar were sold out within 24 hours after the invoice was issued, leaving only about 2,000 tickets in the first three rows in the IMAX hall. Looking through the historical photos, the cinema also temporarily issued a "ticket number" that was "invalid the next day". It can even be said that China's 14 IMAX screen was a surprise of RMB 65,438+68 million. People's box office (screen accounts for 0.23%, box office accounts for 12.2%) has completely inspired the changes of film production and cinema audio-visual technology in China.

Thirteen years later, the tide was thrown.

If 13 years ago, the extraordinary combination of technology and art made the presentation and experience of the film enter a new era. Then 13 years later, fans all over the world are expecting 68-year-old Cameron to start a new era.

In fact, behind this is more than a year and a half of experiments and debugging. The difficulty of motion capture system shooting underwater is not underwater, but that the interface between air and water will form a "moving mirror image", which will reflect all the marking points, and then produce a large number of wrong marks. In order to solve this problem, the team kept experimenting and trying various techniques, and finally it was able to clearly capture the smallest movements and expressions of underwater actors.

However, as a director who loves the ocean most and probably knows the ocean best, this is not enough. What young fans are not familiar with is that Cameron disappeared for almost seven years from 1998 to 2005 after the filming of Titanic. This "full-time explorer" and a group of scientists work 16 hours every day, not only leading the team to make another spherical cockpit with perfect welding and strong pressure bearing capacity, but also independently driving it into the deepest trench in the world. This time, he moved Pandora to the Mariana Trench for the live shooting of Avatar 2. During the filming, the crew built a special deep-sea submarine worth $5 million and sneaked into the trench to make a field trip for underwater landscape design.
