Of course the visuals will be bettered (one day) but the story and the action will still work decades from now. The story borrows from movies like Pocohantas and Dances With Wolves, showing its themes are timeless.

People remember great movies for things like plot twists and character development, which are timeless; effects can always be outdone and forgotten. Alien has kept an untarnished image as one of the top suspense films of all time, while the action in Cameron’s Aliens is less than impressive to modern moviegoers. Avatar will suffer the same fate.
