James Cameron's Avatar in 3D


Recommended Posts

This film just goes on. I watched the 3D version but like other 3D films it lets down badly. The plot was okay and it was a decent film, but it certainly wasn't anything special let alone anything as good as it was hyped up to be. Recommend to watch the 2D version only.

I don't mean to sound like some people here, BUT WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THAT? I mean, other than probable eye problems, that might stand in way of full experience.

7 out of 10. Predictable story, but could've been far worse. Graphics were unbelievable. You couldn't tell you were looking at CG humans, and it didn't feel like it was over two and a half hours. I definitely recommend seeing it on the big screen, and if possible, 3D. Seeing it on anything else doesn't it do it justice visually.

I typically would not comment or add my opinion or review of any movie, however after seeing this in IMAX 3D on Friday evening I feel compelled to add to the hype of just how good this movie is.

To be almost immediately pulled INTO the movie from the initial first few minutes enough to make me forget the turmoil of day to day living, bills, work, etc, etc and not let me come back down to reality until the credits started rolling was a quite amazing.

Typically you watch a movie and lot of times things happen that you either relate to in real life or it makes you think about something similar in your life.... this movie did none of that, it draws you in and gives you front row seats as everything unfolds. I was literally consumed by what was happening in the movie to even think about anything else other than what was happening.

The storyline was very good and though not so unpredictable at moments, it was how those predictable moments were played out and the detail of how it was done.

This movie was over the top and in one word.. in my own opinion - STUNNING

I will pay to see it again and will even say that this is by far probably the BEST movie I have ever seen. That is a far fetch but I stand by it.

Go see it and you wont be dissapointed even if you think you wont like it. It is quite simply just that good

Jedi, as much as I agree with you about this movie... you need to let people say what they want. That's why this forum is here, and it's best not to get worked up over them saying things you disagree with.

I've seen this twice already and I will likely finally be seeing it in IMAX this week. I can't wait :D

Cheaper?

Well, yes. But then again its like going to Disneyland just to have few cones of ice-cream and a drink. Price difference shouldn't be that big to keep you away from 3d version of movie that has been built as one from ground up.

Just saw it tonight, have to say its the best film I have seen all year, even tops Transformers and Star Trek for me! 3D was epic :D

I am sorry don't judge when you don't know what you are talking about, but I DO really think Avatar is MUCH BETTER in terms Quality than Transformers and Heroes are!!!

I Love Transformers for the fact that it's very action packed and FX with the Transformers are really Cool, but nothing about the Drama is anywhere close to this Avatar movie!

Drama, acting, plot, suspense is certainly WAY better here in Avatar than Transformers!

So, of course I am NOT putting Avatar and Transformers in the same boat that's just NOT true!

And Heroes, I also never said that was a masterpiece either. In fact, I always believed LOST is better... so both judgements are WRONG!!!

I never compared Avatar to Transformers or Heroes. I was saying that you go overboard everytime there is a hyped movie or show out. You completely freak out dude. lol Calm down as other people have said.

We all know Transformers movie has much less plots.

It's a movie based on Toys.. I mean, how deep could the plot be?

Transformers did EXACTLY what it's suposed to do. Have Great FX and Action, aided by 'Decent' (NOT Great, NOT Oscar-worthy, NOT Mortal Kombat 2 like either) acting.

No one sane is going to say it's a great movie in terms of being Oscar-worthy like this movie IS.

And, GOD I just can't stop thinking about Avatar!!! The NEW Star Wars for me indeed! :o

Yeah, but I am REALLY happy females are loving it! :wub: :D

    • MVS subscribers got the proper 26200.8655 Win11 25H2 ISO downloads as of 6/16/2026 avoiding this whole MCT fiasco by MS. I'll obtain the official 8655 MVS ISO download instead.
    • too bad the "backend" June 2026 ESD files are still at build 26200.8653 and not at the correct build 26200.8655 release. I'll avoid using the MCT for several weeks until late July 2026
    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.
