Avatar 2 is not a December record
First of all: Avatar 2 was not able to set a monumental record. Because so far the film has “only” $434.5 million in revenue worldwide. What is monumental for a cheaply produced horror film or low-budget drama would represent a nasty loss for Avatar 2 so far. There were also films that had had better theatrical releases in the popular December in the USA over the years – such as the new Star Wars trilogy, Rogue One and above all Spider-Man: A New Universe. the latter is currently the king of December releases in the US at $260 million.

James Cameron himself emphasizes that part 3 will definitely appear, after all it has been shot in full. In order for this not to be profitable, Avatar 2 would have to be a devastating flop. Parts 4 and 5 are still pending. According to the director and visionary behind Avatar you have to wait until the third weekend to see how successful the film really is (via The Hollywood Reporter). He also refers to his film Titanic. It would not have been clear after the first weekend that it would be the most successful film of all time for twelve years.
