"Avatar" the Movie

Was checking out some upcoming movie trailers and came across Avatar. Strongly suggest viewing the trailer first, then reading the review. If you haven't heard anything about yet all you need to know up front is it's about a solider who lost the ability to walk, and was given a new life, so to speak..

Trailer first, Watch Avatar Trailer 1 - Online Video Guide

Review next, Avatar: a first review of footage from James Cameron's 3D space opera | Ben Child | Film | guardian.co.uk

When you've watched and read please post back with your thoughts. Personally, I've never seen anything like it, or been so impressed by a trailer where only three words were spoken and so many concepts were touched on.

This is great.

Yeah I'm also looking forward to seeing this one, only thing is I've got to travel 40 miles to the nearest cinema that can show it in 3D. :cursing:

There's some stereographic images from the film over here if you want to see them.

Sorry poo, should've thought to check if anyone else had started a thread. Anyway, I also look forward to checking this out. Of interest to me are the intense special effects for the jungle. Reminds me of the old SpawnPoint graphics used a few years back. And again, the number of concepts -- space travel, other life forms, the transfer of life force from one being to another, and the human creation of what appears to be a warrior/savior of an occupied alien world -- occupied by humans. Lot's of eye candy and depth in what the short trailer reveals. Good stuff.

Looks like there's going to be a new trailer for the movie, and it's being broadcast during network NFL coverage.

i thought this movie looked somewhat retarded when i first saw the preview, but the more i look at it, the more visually dazzling it looks, and the story sounds like it is getting better and better to me, i cant wait now, 2012 also looks sweet
