Trailer not as incredible as I'd expected it to be. It was a mighty disappointment behind all the hype people were giving it.

I did not know what to expect from this trailer.

Having said that, I surely did not expect that. It seemed like a childrens cartoon to me.

I don't think Cameron has ever said 'This is photo-real', but he has said that the motion-capture technology was amazing. And that scene where he smiles ad says "this is great" really sold the trailer.

Well, it's not like any of us here have written the movie off.

I still think this movie has wonderful potential and that has been proven already by the fact that the movie preview tickets for Avatar Day have sold out the way they have. Furthermore I've heard that at the GamesCom in Europe, James Cameron's Avatar: The Game has stricken the entire region with Avatar fever.

So, yes the trailer was not at all what I'd expected but I am willing to give it a chance. It does feel magical, howbeit I don't feel the same awe struck feeling that I got when I first saw trailers for Pirates of the Caribbean, Narnia, Star Wars, Star Trek or The Gospel of John. Anyway I'm just saying that we should not judge a movie without at lest seeing it in its entirety.

If the trailer is any indication of what the movie will be like, count me out! It looked awful, like 10,000 BC but in space.

This is what Cameron's been hyping up?

Meh. The CGI's far from photoreal, the character designs are too silly to really take as anything other than children's entertainment (it looks straight out of Disney, to be honest), and the whole thing seems more than a little uninteresting.

Hopefully, Cameron's just holding back for the teaser trailer. But if that's all AVATAR has to offer, count me out.

Actually I don't understand why people are constantly complaining about 10,000 BC. The film was wonderful and reminded me of the imaginary adventures I envisioned when I was but a youth around the age of 6 or 7.

Furthermore National Geographic, The History Channel, NPR, CNN, Discovery Channel and Yahoo Movies all praised 10,000 BC as an "epic adventure" and a "splendid" movie that was "one of a kind."

In fact our entire family enjoyed 10,000 BC. Besides I also would like to remind you guys that the movie Avatar should not be judged without seeing it in it's entirety. It's foolish and unwise to judge something with out having fully experienced it.

I also would like to point out that James Cameron has also acknowledged that Avatar has been his dream ever since his childhood and was based on all the fantasy and scifi experiences that he had in his youth with Disney being among them.

We must also remember that Disney is a powerful company and they have influenced many people throughout time. I don't understand why people keep writing Disney off as "a kids company." It is the goal of the Walt Disney company to entertain the entire family. Disney has give us great productions such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Tarzan, Atlantis The Lost Empire, National Treasure, Treasure Planet, Lilo and Stitch, Pollyanna, The Parent Trap, G-Force, Kingdom Hearts and the upcoming Prince of Persia and Tron 2.

Furthermore there is nothing wrong with Mr. Cameron's attempt at reviving childlike wonder and imagination at the box office. After all Jesus Christ has told us that: "Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3.

And indeed we really do need a return to clean entertainment with all the garbage like Borat, Sex and the City, Funny People, St. Trinian?s, Mad Men and Inglourious Basterds corrupting the minds of the innocent youth.

Plus, one must also remember that any time a movie is hyped up there are bound to be disappointments of some kind. The best thing is to remain low-key so that the film will not give one such a let down.

So guys let us be reasonable and give James Cameron the chance he deserves to Avatar is worthy of it's place amongst the greatest cinema experiences of our time.

Like I'm sure many of you have already said (also, ha ha--still posting first then reading threads), the character designs are so... not childish. Hm. What word am I looking for?

Cartoony?

Not saying I won't see it, but I am by NO means rushing out to see this movie. I'm still not even sure what it's about. :confused:

Isn't it a sin to convert others?


One of these days you will step off of your silly deluded worldview... You'll wake up and realize that it simply doesn't pay to try and push your viewpoint on the rest of the world.

...or maybe that's just wishful thinking.


Now excuse me, I have some porn to watch.


Woot, woot! Reverent debauchery!

So I guess you're a member of the Hellfire Club? I guess you fraternize with demons, ghouls, Benjamin Franklin, Manly P. Hall, Aleister Crowley and the devil himself?

Well I hope you enjoy yourself because when you finally awake on the other side of the river Styx I won't be weeping and mourning your lost soul. On the other hand I'm not trying to convert you. I was simply sharing my opinion my dear Resident Evil or was that Resident Alien? Boy, BTW what planet are you from anyway? Venus or Saturn?

Yes, allow me to explain the process... it's not too difficult.

1. Pick up the phone
2. Slam it repeatedly into your face
3. Shout for help lest you remain ignorant the rest of your existence

I've missed RA's patented brand of vitriol. This place would be ever so dull without it.

LOL. I heartily agree. I can't imagine this place without Agent Crab, Resident Alien (Resident Evil as I like to call him), Rocket Surgeon or Lonsome Drifter and especially Violet Indy.

Anyway RA my sister is still laughing off of your last post. BTW don't look at to much rubbish on your PC because if you step out the door and find two female internet monitoring police officers I don't want you to blush all the way red like a tomato and suffer a stroke of shock because I don't want to have to go call up your local priest to give you your last rights before you set sail for the oceans of eternal damnation because we'd all miss you in this forum my sweet baboon. Anyway guys lets turn this discussion back to Avatar because we've gotten way off topic.

I do believe we need to grab up some popcorn and turn on some fuzzy music and enjoy Avatar Day while the sun still shines lest we end up smoking the peace pipe here to.

I do look forward to the day you realize that you are not only the antithesis of clever, but are in fact mentally deficient. One day you shall look back upon these little messages of yours and wonder why you exposed your sheer stupidity to the world...


...in the meantime, I enjoy a chuckle at your "misfortune."





Also, Mr. Child... I don't have that blushing issue. Unlike you, I'm not a prude. Sex doesn't frighten me. See... sex is likely to blame for religion being invented. One prude needed an explanation to justify his prudishness and thus christian dogma was born. Sad, eh? Get out from under your rock. To **** is natural.

BTW Resident Evilness I'm not a child. Sometimes your responses like the above quoted content makes me scratch my head and wonder how in the heck did even survive this far? Your logic is at times quite twisted my poor intellectual friend.

On the other hand I really do wonder if your linked to the Hellfire Club as I have quite the proof that such sick organizations do indeed exist. On the other hand one such club is located in Bohemia, California and Alex Jones has given much coverage to such things BTW as has Art Bell.

I feel sorry for you as I do understand that you have not the slightest idea of how important respect for purity, the sacredness of women, the holiness of marriage and the bond between a man and his wife and the innocence of children is precious in the sight of God and sane mankind. Now please let us return to the subject of James Cameron's Avatar.
