Well, some of Avatar was also filmed in New Zealand (some Sec Ops scenes IIRC). Don't forget that Weta Digital is also there.

Following the news of the Avatar trilogy being filmed entirely in New Zealand, here are a few quotes from Cameron himself on the next 3 Avatar movies:

On what we'll be seeing of Pandora in the sequel and whether or not it will be "off-world":

"It's going to be a lot of new imagery and a lot of new environments and creatures across Pandora. We're blowing it out all over the place. At first I thought I was going to take it onto other worlds as well, in the same solar system, but it turned out not to be necessary. I mean the Pandora that we have imagined will be a fantasy land that is going to occupy people for decades to come, the way I see it."


On the planned underwater sequences of the sequels:

"There's a fair bit of underwater stuff. It's been inaccurately said that the second film takes place underwater. That's not true. There are underwater scenes and surface-water scenes having to do with indigenous ocean cultures that are distributed across the three films."


On THE GODFATHER famiy aspect of the sequels:


"It was very Jake-centric. His story seen through his eyes," Cameron said. "We spread it around quite a bit more as we go forward. It's really the story of his family, the family that he creates on Pandora. His extended family. So think of it as a family saga like 'The Godfather.'"

Here's the link to the quotes.

Edit: The press conference where it was announced (Cameron starts speaking at the 2 minute mark)

Cheers!

That actually makes a lot of sense. I was wondering what the same few characters would be doing in the sequels, and I feel like the first movie wrapped up way too well for the sequels to just be about them, so this sounds great.

Irayo, Jachyra, for posting this news about the sequels!
Glad to hear they will be filmed in NZ (aka Middle-earth).
Can't wait to return to Pandora!

It's nice to get a heads up every now and then.
Can't wait to see some Pandoran ocean!
