I was watching Kim Possible, a 16:9 show, which came out in the early 2000s and I was wondering why Avatar would be 4:3 even though it came a few years later?

It takes years for production companies to change their equipment over for big changes. Keep in mind the change from 4:3 to 16:9 also included a huge jump in resolution and the move to digital media.
Many shows would stay 4:3 till their end.
There where a whole lot of black bars and stretched content for much of the 2000s
