Someone showed me an article why James Cameron's movies don't work like normal movies. These movies are basically built to gain views and purchases over months. Most movies make nearly the majority of their money on opening week, but James's movies are designed to slowly collect money over time. People go see it over the weekend, over the holidays, because the kids are on break, etc.
This tends to suggest that that analysis has some merit.
Release window and spectacle kind of films is a better way of describing it. His films are more like amusement park rides. Stories kind of lame but it looks pretty. What Avatar as a series suffers from is a ham fisted political narrative trying to take center stage in what should be a roller coaster.
Kind of weird, nobody I know is talking about seeing this movie.
