Avatar trailer!! | Movie News
![]()
The AVATAR teaser trailer is here! Scratch that.. It's supposed to be here but the proper links at Apple's trailer page aren't working. UPDATE - Apple has fixed the links and you can click on any of the screenshots below to watch the trailer in HD.
It's weird to comment on this trailer because usually when I see a trailer it's the first impression of that film, never before having seen any footage. But in this case, I've seen a good 16 minutes of the film in 3D. But this is actually pretty well cut together and features a good deal of footage that wasn't in the Comic-Con presentation. I'm sure it'll look much better in 3D and on a giant screen, which is where I hope to see it this weekend. What do YOU think? Strike back below and debate with your fellow schmoes!

Fuck, Spielberg said this movie will do what sound did for silent pictures and color did for black and white.

It looks pretty don’t get me wrong, but I would rather have seen James Cameron spend the better part of the last, I don’t know how long has he been talking about this, a decade? On anything other then what I just saw.

Also, all the haters were going to hate no matter what. Remember when all these same haters said long ago "if the effects are not the greatest thing ever then I'll hate it.". That's the hater mentality for you.

Of course, a trailer is not a movie,and I'll be really curious to see how things fit together in the lager context of the story. I'm a wee bit leery as it sounds like another "evil advanced civilization overruns noble aboriginal population" lecture. There is certainly a dramatic story there, but let's hope Mr. C. can introduce some nuance and not sledgehammer us with a trite morality tale.
I *think* he can do that. I'll be there with my money to check it out.

When that alien wakes up on the table, WOW! Looked amazing. The jungle scenes didn't look as real (or even 100% completed), but still looked visually incredible.

Yeah, the CGI looks like CGI but... that's because it is CGI. At least it looks like good quality CGI and not just generic, "scenery enhancement". Why would anyone be expecting photo realistic CGI on a movie that's been in production for quite some time? Every movie now has CGI. Avatar wasn't going to suddenly change CGI from, "Great" in Transformers 2 to "What? That was CGI?! NO FRIGGIN WAY THAT WASN'T REAL!" CGI.
Plus, beyond the CGI complaint there wasn't one negative thing about that trailer.

Not only that, but it's 90 seconds of footage! I can say that I am a bit disappointed after all of the "groundbreaking CGI and motion-capture effects" talk. It doesn't look as real as I would have imagined, but it's also a teaser trailer from a movie in post-production. Everything else looks incredibly epic. I already saw such a wide range of emotion from CGI characters before I've even sat down and transported myself into their world through this movie. I can't wait!

If they're bitching about the movie in general, then I agree with you, particularly because it's only a teaser and have very little to go on.

After all that "game changing" talk from Cameron, I was expecting something to rival Gollum. I didn't get it. All the mech suits and military stuff looks the best, but still too CGI-looking. And the Na'vi look downright cartoonish. I was hopeful, though, because I thought the shot of the one in the tube looked great. Then I watched the rest of the trailer.
Two ways this will be game changing. Either it's going to tank horribly, no one will try anything like this for a really long time, and Cameron will go back to documentaries. Or, it'll blow everyone away and Cameron will beat his own box office record. Based on the teaser, and all the hype and talk about how revolutionary this will be, I'd say it's swinging more in favor of the former. But who knows, maybe it'll look better when it comes out.
All that said, I did enjoy the trailer, and it's James Cameron so I'll definitely check it out. But I think if they hadn't hyped this up so much it'd be a lot more well-received.

If this is what the big deal is all about then I think they failed. It's great CG but it's obviously cg. I think Final Fantasy the movie may have looked more real.
Still, I'm not counting it off. Just very underwhelmed by it all.

Cameron, himself, has been interviewing for the film during the last four years and been preparing us for it for the better part of the last decade. With such comments and films like Aliens and T 1&2 in his resume, it's not hard to see where the hype is steaming from.

That said, it's James Cameron, which should be enough capital for anyone to be found sitting in a theater on opening day. I know I'll be there. This teaser not only met but exceeded my expectations in every regard. This is what sci-fi should be. Grand and epic ideas coming to life. All I've gotta say is... Thank the f***ing Gods that someone like Michael Bay isn't in charge of proceedings.
Peace.

I feel like all this "game changer" hype left me expecting so much and what I saw here, for the most part, didn't look all that different than, say, Zemeckis' "Beowulf." For example, the moment where Worthington's Avatar says, "this is great." To me, the mouth didn't even match up to the dialogue... The 2D trailer showed me a cool new world, but for now, presented in a way that didn't look like anything mind-blowing.
