Well, here it is. The first trailer for the much-hyped-by-James-Cameron, 10-years-in- the-making sci-fi fantasy film Avatar.
To get the full effect, head over to Apple to see it in HD. However, I must say for all the hype surrounding the film I’m a bit underwhelmed (even in HD). And as far as the “You HAVE to see it in 3D for it to look good!” arguments go, any movie that relies on a gimmick to be good is bullshit.
3D gives me massive migraines, so I’m going to have to pass on the “3D Only” mentality. Is it too much to demand that something look good in 3D as well as 2D.
Avatar looks interesting, I’m looking forward to seeing it. But all this talk of “Photo Real CGI” and “Game Changing Technology” really has me unimpressed. District 9 showed us that Photo Real CGI is possible, and for only $30 million.
