Make her red, and make her Hellgirl.

I swear that Avatar only did well because a small but very dedicated fanbase watched it a million times each. I never saw it, looked meh.
SleepingTide
Avatar was not a good movie.
Trentski
I can’t wait to see what color she plays next!
Gottadothis
 Avatar (2009) Zoe Saldana played Neytiri. But fuck me right?
VodkaStrickenSlav
ianc1215
Wait... That was the same actress? I never put 2 and 2 together.

She was blue then turned green and she died
Evenlymade
Avatar was dope AF
EmergencyChocolate
And still not the highest paid actress in Hollywood
TheFastpaws
Probably lack of name recognition. People don't know her by name casually.
EmergencyChocolate
That’s valid
iPez
I feel irrationally attracted to gamora for being green. My animal side thinks its genetically superior.
kodiakpryde
zoe's next roll a Red twi'lek in star wars:the old Republic
ilhares
*role. But yeah, that'd be kinda neat. Zoe with a lightsaber would be even better.
krillin123499
Looks better blue
ValiantGideon
She's hot no matter what color she is
CastleIsGreat
Also Spock’s girlfriend in the new star treks.
gr33narrow
you mean Uhura? An actual important character?
CastleIsGreat
Didn’t know her name, but thanks for going all extra on me insinuating I was intentionally leaving her name out as some form of sexism.
gr33narrow
Actually wasn't going for sexism nor racism. Just seemed odd that people would forget her.
TheFastpaws
Urgghh... Screw that none Trek STD infection!
notsoinnocuos
Only in the movies not Discovery
MrNecrophile
Blablabla it's not what it used to be blablabla why can't it just be the rose-tinted idealised TNG/TOS blablabla. Bla.
CaptainPawfulFox
But... but I thought that if you were green you would die???
PartlyClauddy
DigiT00l
Vaguely relevant as she also plays reboot Uhura

Splinthar
Zoe Saldana is like some kind of good luck casting. People may not have liked Abrams-Trek but it made lots of $$$
RandAIFlagg
oh that was the chick Kirk banged right
ilhares
He did not. Kirk banged her academy roommate, a greenly-painted Rachel Nichols (who was Scarlet in 2009's G.I. Joe)
DigiT00l
If there is a new Star Trek movie, Uhura needs to go undercover as an Andorian, might do the movie some good
Fahargo
There isn't. It was canceled. Chris hemsworth's was gonna star in it
Guildstranger464
YAY!
DigiT00l
Quentin Tarantino is still talking about a script he wrote, think only the Chrisses pulled out
MostIndeedlySo
It's a different movie. Chris+Chris movie was a continuation of the Kelvin timeline "story", Tarantino's was a different thing altogether.

Guide to making the highest grossing film:
HelenOfTroy87
1: Paint Zoe Saldana a wacky color
HelenOfTroy87
2: Adapt a story from someone else
HelenOfTroy87
3: ?????

4: Profit

Stonks?

Gotta love that honesty
ICanChangeMyNameLater
I loved Space Dances With Wolves.
ThereIsOneDwarfInMoriaWhoStillDrawsBreath
Thank you! I've had several arguments where I've called it that and people get all butthurt about it
ICanChangeMyNameLater
Just wait till you tell them The Fast & The Furious was almost a shot-for-shot rip off of Point Break.
ilhares
You mean Fern Gully?
ICanChangeMyNameLater
Nope, Fern Gully was animated Dances With Wolves.

What is Gamora?

Rich. Very rich.

She’s doing well, did you not hear about her stonks?

When is Gamora?
WhatAboutReefer
How do you spell gamoruh
Rokoma
I'd ask where is Gamora, but we all know that answer.
Foreverastone
Dark, nice
D0ntMindMeImJustLurking
I bet if they ran avatar a second time it would beat the snot out of endgame xD
Rifneno
Not even the slightest chance. People flocked to Avatar to see the tech, not the movie itself.
SquidShadeyWadey
Honestly them rereleasing the movie again just to get the extra money makes me feel like not acknowledging the record break. Avatar did it
SquidShadeyWadey
In one release, Endgame did it in 2
bububub2
It actually didn't, Avatar re-released and stayed in theaters way longer. I'd say its a fair comparison.
JapAnus
The same actress played both? I had no idea, nice
baddiepro2260
Nice

She was also kids and the new uhura

Guildstranger464
I thought you said she had kids and a new eurethra... i mean weird flex but ok
fourbabiesinatrenchcoat
She was kids? Like she was once multiple children? I must be missing something here.
sciencebasedlifeform
thanks. i was like isn't she Uhura...
guerillagirl
And even though she’s black, she didn’t play a black character in either film! Hmm...
squidwardtennisballs
She played the black girl in pirates of the Caribbean
UsuallySpecial
She’s a Lady of Color.
comette
She's hispanic...
guerillagirl
You can be black and Hispanic at the same time, too
freeforallstuff
So she has black, brown, green and blue. What's next to get the rainbow?
guerillagirl
She’s black dominican

DownvoteIsTheNewUpvote
And about to do the trifecta with avatar 2
TheFastpaws
I hope not. The first Avatar was just meh but somehow idiots still went nuts for it.
BatmansUnderPantsAreSoSoft
Avatar 1 got the money it did because it had the benfit of 3D being a new tech. Avatar 2 won't touch it.
live2dyec4
It depends, Cameron needs to force a change in the industry like he did with Avatar 1 (CGI, realism, 3D)
SpecialProjectY
Think it will be a prequel, Earth was insanely fucked over during Avatar, couldn't launch another expedition.
Styxwash
I still didn't watch Avatar 1
dmil103
Why would anyone see a sequel to a movie they didn't love and can't remember anything about?
27yoUGLYvirgin
So you honestly doubt that that movie will make billions? Like, really?
DwigtSchrude
doubt avatar 2 will do anywhere near as well. its a different time, and it wont have the 3D craze to buff it
IOvercookedmyeggsagain
Wow. I hope she does another sequel to Drum line
Vergenbuurg
I honestly don't think it's going to be that big of a deal... the first one is probably the highest-grossing film that people forgot about.
WytLytnin
Ever seen Pocahontas 2? ...Exactly.
shibaMew
Yeah, who's seen star wars episode 5?
RPCd
Only if it is a he first blockbuster in 4d. Without 3d avatar would have had the same box office success, as its cultural relevance.
Evi1Gav
Dunno why you guy the down vote, spot on IMHO, have an up vote.
MrGrundy
Without 3d, it's just Ferngully in cgi
ThePastmaster
With a better plot.
hyperspaceaidsmonkey
Avatar's only claim to fame was high quality CG, I don't think they can step that game up again.
greyrey
Never doubt James Cameron though. He has defied expectations before and is likely to do it again.
MostIndeedlySo
Also, it was like the first really good visual quality 3D movie that was filmed with two cameras, instead of converted afterwards.
squintish
I believe they invented motion capture specifically for that film. And it also got worldwide attention because it 'popularized' the ->
hyperspaceaidsmonkey
Motion capture is much, much older. Like not even this century older. They might have invented a new method though.
squintish
CGI motion capture
hyperspaceaidsmonkey
Still last century. PSX classics used motion capture since it was more cost effective than animating themselves.
squintish
the sort of problems faced by many indigenous tribes trying to prevent development of ancestral lands.
TheYoungGod
Idk. I don't think it'll do all that great. When I watched the first one, I remember thinking it was a solid movie, but that was it.
HypnoJack
They'll probably rerelease Avatar 1 before the sequel is released. So it might pass Endgame. That would be funny.
MiracleWhoop
It's going to kill. Not. Huge fan but the stage is set. A2 is going to crush
Daeyelle
I’ve watched it at least 30 times, it’s my all time favorite movie. It’s basically just like going on an adventure
JapAnus
I don't even remember the plot, besides alien pocahontas, the pterodactyl chooses the rider, and ponytail sex-mingling
idiosamatik
That’s pretty much it save for “unobtainium” ugh
ThisIsAPrivateResidenceMan
it might not beat any records, but avatar 1 will be re-released, and she'll go back to being the blue girl in the highest grossing movie
palmo
Why would people go out to see it again when it's streaming on like 3 platforms. It isn't that good of a movie. It's just pretty.
ThisIsAPrivateResidenceMan
I wouldn't see it again, I didn't like it. But they will re-release it with each avatar sequel and it will keep making money
Kangadilla
The first one only made what it did beacause it was a breakthrough in terms of 3d and CGI, and everyone wanted to see a cool 3d movie.
WTT24
It was definitely just for the 3D novelty. Ask yourself how often people talk about the movie. Never, because it really wasn't that great.
MaxMinutiae
stratus41298
Dutchhiee
The same with avengers. Everybody just wanted to see that nano ironman tech
justinrobinson9999360
Definitely not. Endgame was important because fans were coming to see the end of the characters they cane to know and love
Marxthird
This. Avengers has what Avatar does not and it makes all the difference: memorable and lovable characters that audiences care about.
SpecialProjectY
Thanks to Moore's Law, we could have "breakthrough" movie every 2 years if someone could care to make one.
palmo
Moore's law hasn't been true for nearly a decade, he himself has said so. We're approaching the physical limit of current tech.
SpecialProjectY
True, nevertheless every "now and then" one can make a movie and it will be a pinnacle of achievement of a current tech.
BlueMoonLord
What happened to 3d seems to have died a death?
StunnedGoofy
Like all the gimmicks
JapAnus
No one knew how to utilize it and so it was just a gimmick. The only movie I remember where 3d actually enhanced the experience was Dredd
dohcohv
It's a gimmick, it gets played out every time it comes up.
EverydayIsLegDayBecauseImRunningFromMyProblems
Just like 4k will die and just like whatever the next fad will be. 8k 3D?
OptimusPantry
The problem with 3d as I've experienced it is that it's been a bit of a gimmick for most films, they'll just add a random bit in and (1)
