Re: OFFICIAL James Cameron's AVATAR MOVIE DISCUSSION THREAD
The toy has been confirmed to be a fake. That youtube trailer was greatness, I saw it when it went up yesterday and my brother posted it on the marketsaw blog where you can get all your Avatar info before anywhere else.
I will let you guys know what i think when I see the 3d preview this friday in Imax, but im sure you will be able to judge somewhat for yourself from the trailer. I have always thought James Cameron's movies have not only stood the test of time but been innovative and unique. This may have the best CGI and 3D ever put on screen, but what Cameron says time and time again is the most important element is the story. Apparently its a great story from the parts i have heard.
No, it wont be Star Wars- it will be Avatar. Its own franchise with its own following.
One thing many may not know is that James created an entire world around this movie (much like George Lucas with Star Wars)- There are bugs, plants, and physics he and his team have created that only exist in this world. For instance, there are mountains that float on the planet Pandora. The reason is because of the ore that has magnetic properties in them, thus they are forced up into the sky. That ore also happens to be why the humans are there to begin with-they want to mine this mineral.
It sounds like something way different and if you have visited Avatarmovie.com you have most likely noticed a small part of the soundtrack written by James Horner. I feel this will be a great movie, possibly franchise but we will all have to wait and see. Hopefully hype wont ruin it.
Just remember, when you see the planet of Pandora on the trailer or imax, remember that everything you are seeing is not really there-then you will appreciate the cg they are able to pull off now.
