James Cameron's Avatar in 3D


Recommended Posts

They are deleting the music video off Youtube left and right man, not cool at all.

For any Leona fans this video probably WILL get them get to see this movie, so it's a dumb move the copyright crap is stupid!

Still a few left

These 3D movies give me headaches. I hope its released in a non-3D version here soon. I'd like to see this but don't want to walk out of the theater with a migraine :/

Oh and wtf is up with the $14 ticket price?

the theatre i went to it cost $3.75 more per ticket for the glasses but you get to keep them, i still had mine from Beuwolf when i went to UP in 3d so I was not charged the extra price

And Wow that was Leona that sings that, lol in the theatre i thought Cameron brought in whats her face from Titanic again, it is a VERY similar song

Thanks for the info. I didn't get to keep the glasses when I saw Up. If I go see the movie, I'll ask if they have the larger glasses. Considering going tomorrow, but not sure yet.

Wonder anyone saw it in 3D IMAX STILL thinks this movie looks like a Video game?

Speaking of Video game I feel this movie kinda has a sub-theme about some of us playing a video game, MMORPG, Second Life or whatever with an avatar and maybe wants to live those lives instead?

No, the movie looks Photo-real 100% not a single shot of the movie is like a VG period.

What is the best way to watch? RealD or Imax 3D

I saw this in IMAX 3D last night on the world's largest IMAX 3D screen (Melbourne, Australia). Incredible. A must see, in IMAX.

Not like a video game at all...

Whether this movie will change industry or not is remain to be seen... we will know by 2011 if 3D movies are as good as this in future?

For one. I think it's fair to say this is the BEST 3D movie made... I think this alone will make some people restore faith in 3D

Then, you have imagination of this movie that only rivals Star Wars.

Definitely NOT many movies are like this and as Sci-Fi fans you all should embrace this kind of movie and not go against it for childish reasons (Just cuz it's too hyped?)

I never said it was to hyped, just that i was not as impressed, honestly i really didn't like the story much but it was a very well produced/written/acted/believable Sci-Fi film

The Nerd in me wanted to see some more Navi-nip-slips

The story is most similar to Star Wars, pretty basic but yet at the same time if you think about it, you can think up so many themes.

Like, most people probably didn't think Star Wars was a great story at the time either until later in the years and they look back and find so many underlying themes in it!

Blue symbolism associates blue with freedom, strength and new beginnings. Blue skies are emblematic of optimism and better opportunities. Blue is the color of loyalty and faith. Blue is power. Blue is also the color of protection. Blue symbolism is nearly universal in meaning. As a result, blue is used in national flags and symbols around the world, including the flag of the United Nations.

James Cameron should Direct this!!!

Oscar really need to add a NEW category in Awards

That will give it to the Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy movie with CG ... including Superhero movies.

This way it doesn't get cheated/robbed by ordindary flicks with so much less effort put into just good because plot it's Better?

Now days, there are just too much Sci-Fi/Fantasy movies, I think it's time it gets it's OWN glorious category! This kind of movie is just EPIC in EVERY way I don't care if the plot isn't freaking 140+ IQ, most movies aren't really that smart anyway :)

It's really not fair when you compare an Epic masterpiece like this made with $500+ Millions with a Classic plot Vs a maybe a brilliant movie that's made for just a thousand or two that may be one of the most intellectual movies.

I don't know if those movies need it own category...I am already hearing a lot of buzz about being the front runner for a lot of awards for Oscars. And if a sci-fi or fantasy movie can stand on its own without having its own category that would attract more non sci-fi/fantasy movie goers. I am not disagreeing with you but just putting out another thought...

http://goldderby.latimes.com/awards_goldde...nment-news.html

In fact, many non Sci-Fi/Fantasy movie goers are already respecting it now. Like, James Cameron is smart using Leona Lewis on the theme song!

Just so many of these movies now in this genre, and unfair to being be robbed by an ordinary drama with good acting/plot that has NO action, and no FX at all (MUCH less movie effort)

    • Rufus 4.15.2391 Beta by Razvan Serea Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need! Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO (with honorable mention to WiNToBootic for managing to keep up). It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs. A non-exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is available here. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.) you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS you want to run a low-level utility Rufus 4.15.2391 Beta changelog: Improve the guards for using the "silent" option Improve the ability to cancel during write retries Fix unrestricted XML entity expansion and integer overflow in ezxml parser (courtesy of @esadowski4) [GHSA-55r2-34wg-8mv9] Fix "silent" Windows installation failing at 75% in most cases [#2960] Fix a crash during boot when using UEFI:NTFS on Snapdragon X based ARM64 platforms [#2934] Fix the first WUE option always being checked by default [#2965] Fix an infinite loop when using Windows ISOs that contain multiple WIMs Fix "Enable runtime UEFI media validation" checkbox not always being properly enabled Other WUE improvements/fixes for OneDrive removal and username validation (with thanks to @christian8641) [#2984, #2991] Download: Rufus 4.15 Beta | 1.9 MB (Open Source) Links: Rufus Home Page | Project Page @GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.3 by Razvan Serea Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project (which is no longer maintained) and contains many additional features and bug fixes. As the continuation of the original Media Player Classic, MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles. Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction.

    • Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account by Usama Jawad As things currently stand, Microsoft Edge only allows you to sign in to the browser with a Microsoft Account (MSA). This allows you to sync your browser settings and other data across other devices, as long as you sign in with the same account. However, Microsoft is now modifying this mechanism in a way that will likely please many users. In an update to its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has indicated that it will soon let users sign into Edge using a Google account from the profile menu and the Edge sign-in screen. This will be in addition to the MSA login option, and it opens up new doors for people who prefer using Edge, but cannot be bothered to configure a Microsoft account. This brings several advantages such as the ability to sync your data across devices using just a Google account. It may even facilitate flexible single sign-on (SSO) experiences where you can quickly login to websites and services through a single Google account that is presented as the preferred sign-in option. Up until now, Microsoft allowed customers to indirectly use a Google account, by configuring a Google account as a Microsoft account, or by setting up a one-way sync option between Edge and Chrome. This is a rather interesting development, especially considering that Google Chrome still limits you to a Google account sign-in, but it will be interesting to see if the company reciprocates Microsoft's gesture in the future. This is not the only recent instance in which Microsoft has extended a handshake to Google via Edge. In April 2026, it began tracking the development of a work search banner for Google Search queries, just like the one present in Edge. However, if we go back almost seven years, to January 2020, Microsoft had emphasized that it had no plans to "integrate Google services into Microsoft Edge by default", in response to people requesting Google sign-in services on Edge. Fast-forward to today, and Microsoft is planning to release this feature in July 2026, with IT admins having the option to control its availability on Windows and macOS through the NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled policy.
