Avatar is this generations Star Wars, both had terrible stories, but amazing visuals which is the main reason why it made so much money.

Yeah, except that SW created a world and legacy that lasted for over 30 years, created what is now called "Hollywood movie", had far superior actors, each of who, became BIG after the movies (Harrison Ford, anyone?) Had a FAR SUPERIOR soundtrack, The Empire Strikes Back had the best kept secret in the whole world, at the time (only George Lucas, the guy who dubbed Vader, and the guy who added the voice knew about it), SW created so many things that are now commonplace in movies, while Avatar, besides from the 3D, isn't that big of a jump from LOTR (And many pepole thought that LOTR was far more impressive when it came out).

+1 and rafichamp the original trilogy doesn't have a bad story, on the contrary it's a very compelling and epic story not unlike tales of the middle-age. Avatar on the other side is such an actual movie, the greenish side of the movie is so 2010-ish. Star wars' story will never be outdated or out-of-synch, that's why someone like me who was born way after they (the original trilogy) came out can still fall in love with the movies.
