Your choice.  "
I doubt I'd be able to get it day one, I hope too but I do think it'll be sold out. So I will prolly have to wait a month to get my hands on it. Or even wait until July on my birthday (I asked my sister to get P3P for me XD) so I could ask dad for this. So it might not be my money XD ^^

When was the last time you heard of a movie selling out on the first day? It doesn't happen. I remember when Talladega Nights came out it sold really well the first week but there were still billions of unsold copies in stores like Costco and Frys. And while people will be eager to pick up this movie, its not like the studios wont have planned on that. "
considering our WalMart only stacks a few copies of each movie when the first come out, this is likely for me. We don't have a Cosco or a Fry's? and I don't get to go to the store often, so it will be most likely that I won't be able to get the movie till a month after release even if I wanted a day one.

" @Catolf: Nothing wrong with that. I did a similar thing with Watchmen last year. I bought the Complete Experience (the Blu-Ray bundled with the PS3 game), held on to that until I finished the game & saw the movie, resold it so I would have money for the Ultimate Edition. That reminds me, I never picked up that Ultimate Edition...I should get on that, it's only $42 on Amazon. "
It works out, it wet's your want for the item, and in the end I could give the bare bones copy away or sell it if I want to get the better releases. XD When you get the Ultimate Edition tell me how it is!

" As much as I'd like to watch the film again, I'm going to wait for the special edition. I can't justify buying the vanilla barebones edition of any movie, especially something on a scale like this. "

I know but rumor is that November release won't be the last release, so I'm getting the bare bones to wet my want for the DVD and then waiting out the november and see if later the come out with about with a nice box and possibly the soundtrack with it and all the other bells and whistles.

" Yea, I'll be picking this up on day one also. I will be slightly disappointed though, James Cameron in the past has made Directors Cut versions of his films available, I'd much prefer an extended version of the film (sex scene included), than any regular cinema version.  "

Yeah I feel the exact same.
 
I want my SEX! dammit. I'm willing to get the bare bones BR and hold off on getting the November release and wait a bit longer to see if they release another version with bells and whistles and a pretty box, just like I like my anime. IN A NICE BOX *vain*

" Hate to say it but the real version of Avatar is coming out on BLU-RAY / DVD in november. You're getting double dipped... "
Oh I know I'd just be getting the bare bones copy. I won't be getting the DVD in November, I figure if I wait longer they'll do an awesome boxed version maybe in 2011, also it is coming out on BR for the bare bones one too, just no deleted scenes. XP

" Other people here are echoing my thoughts. The DVD that you'll be getting on Earth Day is an extremely bare-bones copy of the movie with little to no actual special features on it. If you're dying to own the movie (legally), then by all means spend the $15-20 to pick it up from Amazon or Best Buy or whatever. That'll suffice for now.   But we're just trying to make you informed. It's obvious that they're doing a triple-dip with this release. The 2D version, then the 3D version, then the 3D ultimate version with all the stuff you want. I suggest just waiting a year and getting the ultimate uber edition.  "
Yeah, I'm defiantly not triple dipping but I do want the bare bones copy.
 
I figure in a year or so they'll come out with the -SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME 3D VERSION- with all special features and 3D version of the film and the 2D with commentairy (which is what I really do want) but I figured if I got the bare bones copy now i'd be satisfied with waiting another year or more to get a better version (like with a box and all this other awesome stuff) I've jumped the gun before and then a month later a better LE version comes out and I'm bashing my head against a wall.  
 
I'm just getting the bare bones and waiting it out to get a better copy a year or so down the road. I can't triple dip within a few months of each other, I don't have enough money for that. XP

" Just Get Dances With Wolves on Blu-Ray, it's much better and pretty much the exact same story, then go rewatch Avatar in the Imax again when Cameron re releases it like he's been talking about this winter, I liked Avatar but only for the amazing effects. "
I've seen Dances with Wolves and I didn't really like it that much XP And I prolly will go back to the theater to see Avatar again.

" I'll make sure to buy it with all of the Unobtainium I will mine. jk, I probably won't buy it. Money is tight, and the only movie I plan on buying in the near future is (500) Days of Summer. "
LUL share some of that Unobtainium with me eh? Yeah Money is tight over here too, thus it makes my wallet cry to see this movie coming out. XD Is (500) days of summer good? "
It was my favorite movie of last year. A very clever and unique take on the genre, and it may be the first Romantic Comedy to be funny since...since... ever? I really like both lead actors, and the characters are the most relatable ones I have ever seen in film (even through all of the sillyness, you have seen these people before). "

I'll have to watch this then, I like me a good romantic comedy.

Why am i insane? I liked the movie so..XP @MysteriousBob said:
" I can't believe some people buy DVDs without seeing the film first. Don't buy it, you'll only be encouraging more of this 3D 'visuals instead of plot' garbage. "
I HAVE seen the movie. And I liked it. So I'm going to get the DVD. "
You thought Avatar was a decent film? 
 
Wow, you are insane. If you buy Avatar, you'll be encouraging more of this shit and drive the industry into the ground. 
 
All of my thoughts on Avatar in what can only be described as "the best review ever" (part 1 of 2):
   "
I thought it was a good adventure flick. It was in no way a 'bad movie'. This is like people saying Halo 3 is a 'bad game'. It may be overrated, it may not be great... but they are not bad. "
This
 
I don't think it's -THE BEST MOVIE EVAR OMGAWD- I just liked it, and I don't think it's insane of me to buy a movie (on the rare occasion that I do buy movies) to get this for my small DVD collection.

" The DVD and Blu-Ray release this Earth Day is NOT 3D, they won't be releasing the 3D version until early next year. Which will actually be the 3rd release, since they plan to release a "special edition" this holiday with all the special features because the Earth Day release will have nothing except the movie.   Personally, I'm not interested in supporting a studios obvious triple dip scam to squeeze as much money out of the fans as possible. I will not be buying any release of Avatar.     "
This. Because in 2011 we'll have a NEW format as well.  It's a damn shame cause this isn't like the jump from VHS -> DVD (and even now DVDs are being reduced w/ special features only appearing on the Blu-Ray Version - Hangover I'm lookin at you), they just keep cramming new formats down peoples throats faster and faster. I say get a Netflix account and don't buy any movie no matter the format. "
I only really buy movies I like. Most of my 'buy's' end up being anime DVD's or some sort, I rarely buy movies I see in theaters. I figured sense I enjoyed Avatar I would buy it to add to my small collection of DVD's
