True. We better start seeing commercials in a month or so. the release is nearing and I'm not sure that a lot of people, besides us movie/script buffs, know about Avatar. So it's time to get it out to the public


Isle 10- A series I'm currently writing with my friend Adam and it will go into production soon. Think The Office meets 10 Items or Less.

I feel like I just watched something spectacular. Like a Blue Whale giving birth... or a Pig nursing from a Hyena...

One thing, on the website it says- From the Director of the "Titanic"

What? It's just "Titanic". Not the "Titanic".

Anyways, movie looks freaking nutz. Cameron has been away from the big screen for far to long.

This does look interesting.  Can't wait to see it.

20th Century Fox is bringing James Cameron's Avatar to both IMAX and regular theaters in 3D around the world on December 18th.

Forget the photorealism debacle. This movie will showcase how extraordinary this new  3-D truely is. We really are on the threshold of a new level of cinema technology.

As a movie geek I am excited!

While i do agree with that, I predicted about a month ago that they would try to make CGI look so real that it would become fake looking. In some scenes of the trailer that's what we have here. I've also noticed that in other films recently. What's going on?

I was SO excited about this - from the way people were talking, I'd imagined it could be milestone in the history of cinema. But having seen the trailer, my expectation levels have been revised WAY down. This doesn't look like much of a step-up at all...WALL-E's animation of Earth had more atmosphere than the videogame cut-scene visuals on display here.

Hoping that the 3-D will make it (although the people who saw it at an IMAX preview said it just made them feel sick), but I fear this may turn out to be a disappointment...


Guess who's back? Back again?

I agree. I see nothing groundbreaking about this. I know it's just a teaser, but I don't see even a shred of something special here.

I'll probably watch it -- with lowered expectations.

I've rewatched the trailer a couple of times now and I got this nagging sesation now that this movie's gonna somehow suck. I still have no idea what to expect from this movie and I'm still looking very much forward to it, but my expectations just cooled a bit. Still, this is a Cameron movie so it can't be bad.

Even though the trailer was disappointing i don't think it'll suck.

CGI, no matter how much you spend on it, just doesn't work on living things. It looks fake. Those blue creatures look like something from Fern Gully.

The opening scenes look good though.

Agreed 100%.

I'm still gonna see it, but honestly, if James Cameron wasn't attached to this, and I watched that trailer, I might have passed on it.

I'm withholding judgement until December when I see the movie in IMAX 3D. Despite the mediocre trailer, I still think my eyeballs will be raped.  


Though earth and man are gone, I thought the cube would last forever.
I WAS WRONG.

Apparently you have to see the trailer at the cinema. Forget that nasty little 2D trailer. The 3D trailer is incredible. Utterly incredible. This is what I'm hearing anyway.
