It is another giant head poster, but it's quite pretty.

James Cameron's AVATAR is not only highly anticipated by the fans of this site, but by movie fans everywhere. With the knowledge that any AVATAR news is good news, thanks to IMP AWARDS we have a look at the new IMAX poster for the film.

We're only 9 days away from seeing if Cameron's masterpiece lives up to the hype it's been getting. While I won't be buying midnight tickets, I am interested in seeing the film. For some reason, I'm also interested in Sam Worthington's swift rise to blockbuster golden boy. Seriously, the guys starts out with a part in one episode of JAG and is now not only in AVATAR but also the remake of CLASH OF THE TITANS. Who can say that for David James Elliot? Anyway, enjoy this poster and sing along to the theme by Leona Lewis.

Extra Tidbit: Worthington was actually a finalist to play James Bond in CASINO ROYALE before Daniel Craig was cast.

How exactly do you know that NOBODY KNOWS about this movie? What are you basing that on?



What a ridiculous statement.

All I know is that when I went home for Thanksgiving, I asked my family if they had seen the Avatar trailer and everyone practically freaked out all at once about how excited they were to see it. And my family are the epitome of the "general public". A good sign, but I'm not about to go the other way and say this movie is gonna make 87 bazillion dollars cuz even my family wants to see it!



Just wait until it comes out before you get all gloom and doom on it. You're likely to eat your words if you don't.



On Topic: Yeah, that poster is pretty terrible.

Okay, so with all the people you two have talked to combined, we're at .0000000000000001 percent of the world's population.

But by all means, jump to those conclusions. Jump!

Sorry but the only people I know that know anything about this are people that are into movies like myself.

Of all the people I've asked, one knew what it was, another thought it was an anime adaptation, and everyone else had no idea what I was talking about. I'm gonna be real curious to see the box-office for this one.

As long as the movie is good
I don't care about posters or box office grosses, so long as the movie is good. Also, I'm pretty sure that the horrible Alvin and the Chipmunks sequel will be Fox'a secret weapon if Avatar fails to meet expectations.

Poster looks okay...nothing special, but probably trying to appeal to the female demographic. I really haven't cared much for the marketing campaign so far (Fox really missed the target here, as usual), but this is f*ing James Cameron!

I really haven't cared much for the marketing campaign so far (Fox really missed the target here, as usual), but this is f*ing James Cameron! Since when have we become James Cameron haters and doubters? The man has always exceeded expectations. The critics and journalists always say he will fail every time one of his movies comes out. Terminator, T2 and Titanic were all supposed to fail, yet they all made astronomical amounts of cash and went on to become genre-defining epics. Sure, Avatar won't make Titanic numbers in the box office, but people are waaayyy underestimating the power of The Cameron. The man knows his shit and can write and direct Sci-fi and romance like no other. Give him a chance!

3-D
Why isn't this movie being sold as a great 3-D experience? In my local cinema (in the UK) there is a massive cardboard display for the film and there is no mention of 3-D. The way this film has been marketed is very, very odd.

Attention James Cameron: stop while you're somewhat ahead. And ditch the orange-blue contrast, we're getting sick of it.

This will rock
I'm digging this poster. Most of the others have been average, but I like this one, especially the colours.

Nobody knows about this film? Are you sure? Hell my 70yo mum wants to see it and she discovered it all on her own! Even if it doesn't open huge it's gonna have a long run at the box office, I wouldn't right ot off it doesn't open to huge numbers.

Again, I wanna see Avatar as much as anyone but there's not one ounce of me that doesn't think it'll be a huge box office failure. It's not even gonna cross 350 million domestically. Unless it has the greatest word of mouth of all-time... because it opens in A WEEK and NOBODY KNOWS.

This looks like two different poster concepts stitched together, and not very well I must say. The colors are all wrong. The mix of cool and warm doesn't work here.



This version is better:

Not a big fan of the posters for this flick, but the film itself looks fantastic!

Correct me if i have missed something here
Empire magazine nailed it when they said the whole film has been pitched kind of like a dances with wolves. I HATE DANCES WITH WOLVES. fuck floating emotive heads and enviro back drops. bring out a one sheet with one of those bad ass mechs. lets face it who cares about the plot?

Yeah, the plot is everything, man. Negative ratings due to you sounding like a Transformers 2-loving meat head.

It could be due to the fact that you said, "lets face it who cares about the plot?".

It's a sweet poster, but
The official page should really update their wallpapers section, cause for all the badassery of the film graphics, they fall too short ¿don't you think?

Cool Poster
Better than just the heads. I think this is going to be one of my favorite movies of the year. Believe the hype or not, its a James Cameron film which gives it a good amount of credibility in my opinion.

Love the poster
But Worthington was really a Bond runner up? Hmmm. Maybe we have our future Bond once Craig's done.
