James Cameron Sci-Fi film AVATAR

[Feathers]

It's the 10' tall blue skinned warriors. They all have big feet and chisled abs. ;)

How's that different from the rest of us males then?

Oh.

I saw this movie (and stupid frakkin internet ate my post) so here are the basics of my review:

Visuals were stunning in 3-D. 
Story while not anything new was really good.
Actors did an excellent job.  The female actress (the first one you see) who's name escapes me is a favorite of mine. 
3-D is the bomb, for this movie anyway.  I'll miss it when I go to Blu-Ray. 
Music was really good.  Already purchased it.

Overall: 9 out of 10.

Well it's official.. Titanic has sunk and Avatar reigns king of the box office.

You are thinking of Zoe Saldana. She was terrific.

So - who's heading out tomorrow (4/22/10) to buy this?

AVATAR BD & DVD TRAILER

[Geekyfanboy]

I'm not because the two disc is a disc with the movie in blu-ray and the second disc is a regular DVD.. no extras. That Blu-ray will be out later this year.

[Geekyfanboy]

Just found this snippit.

"Avatar will be released on Blu-ray and DVD on Thursday. The release contains the 2-D theatrical version of the film only. Buyers will have access to exclusive online content. A more comprehensive package is expected in November, with a host of bonus features."

Thanks for the heads up Kenny.  I'm guessing this is one movie that will see multiple releases for a few years to come.  Of course, wouldn't you need a 3-D TV to ever see the 3-D version at home?

Yeah if and when they release the 3D version you'll need a 3D TV.. I'm just looking for the 2D version but with a bunch of extras.

I want  a 10' cardboard cutout figure of Neytiri.

I'm in, I'll likely end up getting a better or even 3D version at some point down the road, but i really want Jamie to see it now.

[Darkmolerman]

Am I the only one that thinks they are rushing the heck out of it? So the DVD has 2 discs one for someone with DVD and one for Blu-ray. No bonus features, no 3-D version, no director's cut. Do they think the Avatar buzz will end so they need to sell it NOW? they are already in discussion on another IMAX 3-D showing with more scenes

[Rico]

It's still playing in a few theaters too.  But, it will still make a ton of money on DVD/Blu-Ray.  And there is your reason - well, for just about everything.  ;)

[Bromptonboy]

Follow the money trail.  :)

[Rico]

So, anyone pick this up yet today?
