Avatar: The Way of Water <\/em>is set to release this December<\/a>, but it has a pretty major problem: it\u2019s a sequel to a film that came out 13 years ago. Meanwhile, most of us can barely remember what happened on last week\u2019s episode of She-Hulk<\/em><\/a> <\/em>\u2014 when Avatar 2<\/em> hits theaters, there could be a lot of confusion if characters start talking about unobtanium, Toruks, RDA, or the Noble Clyde Boudreaux. (One of those things isn\u2019t actually in the movie \u2014 see if you can guess which one.)<\/p>\n

James Cameron and crew, however, have come up with a solution: rerelease the first Avatar<\/em> in theaters. According to a trailer<\/a> released on Tuesday, the 2009 movie is coming back to theaters for two weeks<\/a> starting September 23rd and will be shown in \u201call formats,\u201d including IMAX, 4K \/ HDR, and \u2014 of course \u2014 3D. <\/p>\n

That last point is a big one. Sure, theoretically people could<\/em> watch it at home to catch up before heading out to see the new one, but almost nobody<\/a> is going to have the equipment to actually watch it in the way it was meant to be watched, with a pair of 3D glasses strapped to their face. Also, I say theoretically because watching it at home has gotten a lot harder, because Disney\u2019s removed Avatar from its Disney Plus streaming service. While Disney didn\u2019t immediately reply to The Verge<\/em>\u2019s request for comment on when it\u2019ll be available again, a report from Variety<\/em><\/a> cites sources claiming it\u2019ll come back before The Way of Water<\/em>\u2019s release date. The movie is still currently available to rent on services like Apple TV or YouTube. <\/p>\n

If Disney\u2019s ploy to force you into a theater to re-watch Avatar is successful, you\u2019ll be able to get that full experience like it was 2009 again, without having over a decade to forget all the jargon and world-building. (Well, almost the full experience \u2014 you won\u2019t have the \u201cpleasure\u201d of listening to \u201cBoom Boom Pow\u201d or \u201cPoker Face\u201d on the radio as you drive home from the theater to write an angry forum post about James Cameron making \u201cunobtanium\u201d a real plot point in a sci-fi movie.) <\/p>\n

Movies coming back to theaters to prepare you for a sequel isn\u2019t necessarily a new phenomenon \u2014 I remember attending a screening of Batman Begins<\/em> and The Dark Knight<\/em> on The Dark Knight Rises<\/em>\u2019 opening night, and some theaters have done similar things for Marvel movie releases<\/a>. Even James Cameron\u2019s no stranger to the theatrical rerelease; Titanic<\/em> has come back to theaters before<\/a> and is set to do so again next year<\/a> \u2014 though, obviously, that\u2019s not because it\u2019s getting a sequel. For most movies, though, seeing the prequels is a luxury; because of how complex Avatar<\/em> was and how long it\u2019s been since it was released, it kind of feels like required reading this time.<\/p>\n

Update August 23rd, 7:53PM ET:<\/strong><\/em> Added information about Disney removing Avatar from Disney Plus.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
