After thirteen years of long wait, James Cameron finally brought us the sequel of the highest-grossing film, Avatar, which is Avatar: The Way of Water. As it was released after so long, it surely is not disappointing the audience, and the visuals of this film are just remarkable, surpassing its predecessor. The fact that the action sequences of the film were shot at 48 FPS makes the film smoother visually, but that has turned out to be a problem in Japan, and as a result, some of the projectors in movie theatres are crashing.
Cameron’s film follows the story of Jake Sully after he becomes an unlikely champion of Pandora’s Omatikaya clan, the community of Na’vi that lives in the forest. The sequel deals with new challenges faced by the Sully family and how they tackle it all.
Avatar 2 is among those rare films that come in 48 fps 3D format that requires the latest technology to have the power to play the high frame rate format. According to a report by Bloomberg, several projectors in Japan’s theatres are crashing down. Only one theatre at Nagoya could fix this problem by lowering the film’s 48fps high frame rate playback to the standard 24fps one. Among the several theatres where the screenings failed to include The United Cinemas Co, Toho Co, and Tokyu Corp, the audience took to social media accounts to complain about the same.
