Okay the trailer is up on Apple.com/trailers. go check it out. I can't to see how good it looks in 3D.
Here are some screen shots from the trailer:
Avatar teaser trailer coming out today!
" @Tireyo643 said:Now your setting youself up for failure." Like the visuals. Maybe it'll be good. "...maybe it'll be good? He's been working on this movie well before Titanic came out...it won't "maybe" be good. It's going to change the film industry as we know it. "
I have been off and on following this movie for amybe a year and a half and I'm excited. For others it has been much longer then taht, maybe four years for the film to get a picture or even a trailer.
I have extremely high expectations but I don't expect it to change everything, that would b insane. Heh, just wait in an one hour when i take everything back!
" @Tireyo643 said:Perhaps it will and perhaps it won't be successful. We'll see what happens, and see if the hard work paid off." Like the visuals. Maybe it'll be good. "...maybe it'll be good?

" What the fuck is this shit? It looks like a fucking video game...what the fuck. "Hhaha this made me chuckle a bit.
Dude...Killzone 2 looks better than the humans in the trailer. WTF?!" @KaosAngel said:

EDIT: FRENCH TRAILER
" @KaosAngel said:Exactly what the hell has he been doing all these years. District 9 has better visuals." What the fuck is this shit? It looks like a fucking video game...what the fuck. "lol "
" @VWGTI said:Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII look better than this. What the hell, James Carmon said he's been working on this before Titanic. I was laughing my ass off at the human CGI...Killzone 2 INGAME looks better than this." @KaosAngel said:Exactly what the hell has he been doing all these years. District 9 has better visuals.

That will ultimately ruin this movie.
No one has even seen a FUCKING teaser yet and there already people as excited as you.
Dont get me wrong this movie may be good but, it will not be the second coming of christ.

HD Trailers above, you get a more authentic look with it, it does look great, obviously those who have been waiting for years will be disappointing somehow.
The film looks really great!
Personally I thought the CG looked amazing, let's hope the film is able to stand up on its own without the 3D effects.
" @KaosAngel said:When he's coming out of the wheel chair...and when they fire their guns at the aliens."I was laughing my ass off at the human CGI...Killzone 2 INGAME looks better than this. "Which shot in the Avatar trailer are you talking about? Pick a time. :) "
$300 million dollars for this? It looks like the Dark Crystal. Well, it better be pretty fucking amazing in 3D, because in 2D it just looks like a prettier version of Battle for Terra.
So far I am more interested in Astroboy, The Princess & the Frog, 9 and The Fantastic Mr. Fox. I'm not going to say that any of them looks as nice as Avatar, but from my impressions of the story so far, all of these other films look more entertaining. And on top of all those, there is Where the Wild Things Are which looks stellar and I know has an awesome story.
Don't get me wrong. I'll see Avatar on blu-ray eventually, but that means it will likely be 2D and if a gimmick like 3D is the difference between what makes it great and what keeps it average, then I'm really not missing much in the long run.
The day I can't tell it's actually CG will be when I think wow, to me that's just another high budget movie, that doesn't look all that good. Maybe that's because of what I was expecting but either way.

I know the guy in the wheelchair is a live actor, though the people in the background might be CG - a few do look a bit fake, though the marine types standing closer to the guy in the wheelchair seem like live actors too. As for when they're using the guns in the helicopter thing, those are live actors with plastic guns. :P
I've spotted a few bad effects in the trailer, but the worst one has to be when the guy gets pulled out of the helicopter by the flying dragon thing. Lots of sloppy fringes between the cg dragon and live action person until he's thrown, at which point he's swapped for a CG model.
Overall though, we're talking about really inconsequential stuff here. The stuff that matters looks great.
As a teaser, that promised a lot of good stuff and I completely believe James Cameron can deliver. I'm now more excited for Avatar than i've ever been.
It's definitely a good teaser. The CGI is absolutely gorgeous, but it looks a little more... animated thhan I thought it would. Still great though. My only hope is that acting and good story don't fall by the wayside to the special effects. Though, knowing it's a James Cameron movie I'm not too worried.
So... Can anyone explain to me what's supposed to be going on. All I can gather is that there's bunch of people and then nightelves show up and then everyone's fighting and then the trailer's all like "peace!" and ends. Did a dude get merged with one of those blue creatures?

Did a dude get merged with one of those blue creatures? "Sam Worthingtons dna and na'vi(the blue alien) are merged and that blue guy running around is basically his "avatar". Planet is Pandora, the atmosphere is toxix, reason for the avatar since it give humans ablilty to breath on the planet. He meets up with a female na'vi, they attract. humans want to use planet for personal gain, na'vi want them to leave.....epic battles
this is just the kind of movie i've been waiting for.

the CGI aliens do look fucking amazing. i mean wow. I wish they could go back and redo all of the Lord of the Rings movies with this tech.
" Considering its directed by James Cameron, I will be there opening night. "i agree, Titanic is one of the best movies ever made yet its mind boggling how many people say OH I HATE THAT THAT MOVIE SUCKS! its bullshit. everyone was glued to the screen when they saw that movie.

naked in it so he is a champ in my book. Plus he also directed Aliens and True Lies, and Predator I believe. So what could possibly go wrong with this title?
1. Cameron Diaz was not in Titanic. Kate Winslet was." @TwoOneFive said:

2. James Cameron has no involvement with Predator. That was directed by John McTiernan who also did Die Hard.

Predator?! i dunno, but he did do Aliens and Terminator 2. yeah this guy even made some excellent documentaries over the last decade. this move WILL deliver.
anyways, this images prove that this film has CG Photorealism:

okay so name me one excellent alien design?! because as far as im concerned every fucking alien in every movie looks ridiculous. these aliens actually look decent to me. its okay for LOTR to have fungus people running around and thats GREAT! but these look shitty?! please." I liked it, up until the shitty alien species design. No thank you, James. "
that looks fucking awesome to me.
@Scooper said:
uh. yeah. okay. overhyped and mediocre. thats EXACTLY what Titanic was. SUURREE." Like James Cameron's last movie Titanic, this will just be another over budget, over hyped mediocre movie. Also the aliens look dumb. They could at least of made them look cool. They look like a mix between a Zora and a Night Elf. "
