Just got back from seeing the Avatar re-release at a 3D IMAX viewing (the only way it should be seen now that i've seen it like that). I've always been a fan of the movie and i'd guess in total i've seen the film somewhere close to 15 times. People can say all they want that it's "Dances With Wolves" meets "Ferngully", but imo, the movie itself is great.
I had never seen the movie in theaters though. That's really the only reason I went to see it in theaters was to get the proper viewing experience finally. I didn't think i'd come out feeling as if I had seen a completely new movie from the one i've been watching for around 13 years. On the technical side, this film holds up so incredibly well for a movie released in 2009. If I didn't know better, you could tell me this was a new movie never before released and i'd believe you and i'd bet on it to win the VFX Oscar this year. I've simply never seen anything like the 3D that this movie provides and the visuals are even better with the 4K remaster.
There was one short scene of Avatar: The Way of Water as a mid-credit scene and a post-credit scene. They were very short and out of context it's hard to judge anything. One focused on Jake and Neytiri's family and the other focused on Sigourney Weaver's new character as one of the oldest children. IMO, the 3D looked a bit more impressive in a way that's tough to describe.

In Box office news for the re-release. Currently projected to be the highest grossing re-release since Jurassic Park 3D in 2013.
