Cool News
A new spy pic of AVATAR mech appears online!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. MarketSaw is at it again, grabbing yet another scoop from James Cameron's upcoming statutory rape of all our eyeballs (we are, after all willingly participating... and I guess minors? I don't know, the analogy might not work, but it sounds funny anyway).
This time we get a glimpse at the famed Power Suits... it might just be me, but the photo that the MarketSaw guys are publishing looks to be pretty expertly cropped to act as a tease. I'm starting to wonder if their source isn't exactly leaking spy info as much as they working as part of the publicity team. I don't care either way as long as they keep this shit coming. I want a trailer, like now.
Check out the pic below and be sure to click through to the original story by clicking the image.
It very much smacks of the Powerloader... which along with the images of the soldiers' gear are really giving me an ALIENS vibe and that makes me one happy little geek.

Coming soon to a theater near you.

First! Beeyatches!

If T2 is really just a remake of T1 (with the budget for him to do all the things he wanted to do in the first film, but couldn't), maybe Avatar is a similar attempt to do all the things he really wanted to do in Aliens, but didn't originally have the budget for... count me intrigued even more by this photo.
-
Maybe felt up a little, or had a few inappropriate advances made but no non-consensual sex was observed.
-
AINT IT EYE SURGERY NEWS!!!!
-
a look at the whole thing. Love the articulated hand, very anime...Love the aliens vibe its giving off too. In the old scriptment the mech armour is quite agile and fast moving, should make for some sweet action. Wonder if thats been made by Stan Winston Studios as Its been confirmed that they have done practical effects for Avatar...
-
I'd be happier with a lot more advertising, but I guess they're going the opposite route of every big-budget movie the past twenty-five years...
-
I listen to metal. \m/
-
This is total utter complete shit. I mean bullshit. Why do they tease like this? They KNOW what we've been thru this summer so far. What do we have between now and Christmas? Harry Potter and Up. Fuckers. Mother fuckers.
-
Give us some real shit. This movie is supposed to be out this year right? Fucking show us something. Sick of seeing blurry pictures of footage on a screen...in a photo, blah blah blah. Just give us a fucking poster or teaser already, Jim. Setting expectations waaaaaay to high.
-
Well, since Harry et al don't seem to care about movies in the slightest anymore and the only way to do this is in the talkbacks here are at least the jury decisions of Cannes 2009.

Christoph Waltz, for Inglourious Basterds
Best Actress
Charlotte Gainsbourg, for Antichrist

Jury Prize
Thirst (Park Chan-Wook) tied with Fish Tank (Andrea Arnold)
Grand Prix
Un Prophete (Jacques Audiard)
The Palme d'Or

Maybe some of you care about this stuff. But probably not. News about state of the art theater chairs and trailers for videogames are much cooler i guess... -
This is the hardest wait for a film I've ever experienced. I need more now!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
destroy destroy destroy
-
Nobody cares about Cannes or its stuffy movies that only 5 people in the world will ever see.
-
is HUGE
-
And not a good one.
-
It's a partial shot of a robot leg. Who gives a cotton pickin fuck?
-
My point exactly. Now keep reading about that new vibrating movie chair and keep looking at those awesome shots of robot legs.
-
Are you posting the Cannes shit in every TB? Saving the world, one film festival at a time. Fuck off.
-
I get the feeling that this going to be another Abyss rather than another Aliens/Terminator but I hope I'm wrong....
-
You guys are so DEEPLY gullible. This is the New Hollywood, Where People Have No Weapons of Any Kind. Not even TRANSFORMERS get to use weapons in their hands (unless their hands ARE weapons - that's ok, evweryone has hands). These will NOT have weapons on them - guaranteed. There will be no Colonial Marines - guaranteed. There will be "water cannons" like the new TRANSFORMERS cartoon. This has no balls - guaranteed. It's about an astronaut who mentally mates with a Thundercat. Come on.
-
All the big film festivals have lost their influence, instead becoming the go to place for hanger ons, dead beats, wanted bes, etc. I mean there's still a few I guess (SXSW?)
-
I'm feeling a little Avatar backlash in these TB's.. Where these were once 99.9% dick sucking sessions, now it's about 70/30.... Get us some footage soon Harry, come one, you are James Cameron fan numero uno...
-
Who is ever going to see or even seek out "White Ribbon"?
-
If this was a picture from the set of Terminator Salvation six months ago, you'd all be crying "Transformers ripoff! Transformers ripoff!"I hate fanboys.
-
Movies suck anyway. I only watch Star Wars cartoons and Playstation intros.
-
When was Cameron's last good movie? Acts 1 and 2 of The Abyss?
Care factor zero. -
I love the teasing that Cameron is doing with Avatar. I can actually go into the film and be surprised.
-
be the only one who couldnt give a shit less about this movie.Commence with the hate if you will but couldnt give a shit less honestly
-
MECH!
-
I'm just going to see Avatar for the Titanic cameo.
-
ABOUT RAISING THAT TITANIC OFF THE FLOOR!
-
For the love of christ please release a fucking trailer already. 5 years of waiting and its so.....so....so close.
-
as someone who isnt a 55 year old who just learned about facebook a few months ago, think i'll pass on that offer. still psyched about AVATAR though.

What is the teaser supposed to be attached to this summer?
by thefarkman
-
I'm the first to get annoyed when they post location scout images of movies 20 months in pre-production and act like they're doing us a favor or giving us some kind of juicy tidbit. But this isn't just some bullshit image of a tree or grass. This is a partial shot of something pretty damned cool. It's certainly something one can look at and begin to envision what they might be watching very soon. And it looks great, what little of it there is. I'm pretty excited to see what Cameron pulls off with this.
-
I love eye-fucking visuals as much as the next guy but this world's seen enough effects extravaganzas written by maladjusted, submental basement trolls. Make Avatar smart, damn you Cameron!
-
Star Trek was amazing, but Avatar will be the next Star Wars or Jurassic Park in terms of sheer wow factor.
-
only if it wasn't in 3d.
-
i'm really looking forward to this movie, but they tell us, this will be the greatest experience since colour tv and all they give us, is a fucking picture like that? really fucking disappointing...
-
This image is FUCKING MY ASS. I thought only my eyeballs were supposed to be raped... WHY?! AUGHGH!
-
this post has been up for a little over an hour, and not one little pussy bitch has whined about the use of the word 'rape.' im almost impressed.
-
what is the status of Battle Angel?
-
May 25, 2009 9:18:42 PM CDT
At least the Iron Man guys showed us the full costume
by lockesbrokenleg
This smells desperate.
-
unless this is some weird vertical panavision stills camera....
-
He's cool. He can probably lift like two tons, and also dig up your garden in two kicks.
-
that 11 on the leg is backwards
-
What does it matter to you how many people are going to see The White Ribbon? As long as somebody out there is interested, that seems like reason enough for it to exist. Can you honestly tell me that a) you've never liked a movie that's been a blockbuster success and b) that you give a shit about every item of news that AICN posts? No? Then what are you arguing about?
-
keep me wanting more Cams
-
Is unamused.
-
Racists.
-
I'm officially checking out of discussion and news on this movie now and probably after release as well. I'll be damned if I'm going to let spoilers and the talkback vermin take away my pure enjoyment of this one.
-
you can see the belt feed of ammo on the side
-
than all of Terdinator Salvation. JC is incapable of making a bad film. Cannot wait.
-
"..it's a Lion..."That's gotta be Voltron!
-
On a bike with her ass out. Oh wait, that's Transformers. Sorry.
-
have guns. God im sick of getting ignorant opinions from people that have nt read the old scriptment or have nt been following this things production. Look if it does nt interest you then cool, by all means please go and watch/discuss something that does. But please stop talking out your ass because you just have some personal issues with Cameron. The MECH armour in the scriptment is absolutely a walking weapons platform, lots of guns...so sorry to dissapoint the above conspiracy theorist, never mind that as dr pointed out you can see the ammo belt feed on the side...
-
And uber cool. Can't wait for more pics, a teaser, and a trailer. James Cameron is back, and McG is shitting in his pants as we speak! :)
-
May 25, 2009 11:07:59 PM CDT
Get away from her, you... young whippersnapper!!!
by anything but tangerines
Yeah. Sigorney Weaver is too fucking old for this shit
-
a sci-fi epic with an adult tone,, and lot and lots of mech armour. Just one part of the reason this interests me so much. There seem to be some serious anime influences going on here....
-
And, did that movie suck.
-
fuck yea! Does Jimmy still own the live action film license for MAZINGER Z?
I hope so. HAIL ROBO! -
mecha, and lots of it...
-
has nothing in common with the abyss, and its action adventure sci-fi with epic action set pieces.did I miss where those were in the Abyss While Abyss was basically a thriller that turned into a sci-fi movie at the end...
-
also does nt make sense as this movie will appeal to a different audiance than those that love the Abyss for the most part...
-
nothing when compared to the eye violating, brain sodomizing action that Avatar will bestow upon your gangbanged retinas, you will have placental tissue running out of your ears after seeing this movie
-
You've turned our eye sockets into hollow, eviscerated raw cavities, and you expect us to feel a thing this time? Jim! It's the 21st Century! You gotta fuck all 5 senses at the same time! Just ask Michael Bay.
-
Cameron knows his mecha.
-
Green, clunky military-esque . . . could be good. So long as DiCaprio's not piloting it.
-
Does anyone know what this movie is actually about, or is it being taken on faith that this next Cameron flick is going to equate to the King of the World thrusting his phallus into the (his) world's eyesockets?
-
May 26, 2009 12:08:18 AM CDT
It DOES look like Aliens. It looks like fucking PLASTIC.
by dannyglovers_dickblood
Just like every set/vehicle/weapon in that fucking thing.

IESB.net interview with Sam Worthington:
"IESB Q: Does AVATAR live up to the hype?"
"Sam: It’s amazing! Jim said, “The hype is gonna kill it.” Jim is not nervous. He doesn’t get nervous. It’s not the be all and end all. Hopefully, what this does is open up a world of the possibilities of what motion capture can do and the possibilities of what this 3-D technology can achieve. Hopefully, it starts that kind of revolution, and I think it will.
" It’s not the be all and end all"
Translation: the story, script, and character development, are nothing special.. but the special effect and 3-D are outstanding. Considering how actors like to put a positive spin on their movies " awesome " and not the be all end all (It's too hyped up)... does not exactly instill a lot of confidence. Hell Spielberg said Shitformers 2 was "AWESOME" I don't want awesome... I demand a epic masterpiece from Cameron. Something that would make Lord Bale cry like a little bitch in terror at the mammoth sized proportions of professionalism. Or maybe I'm just reading to much in to this statement.
Nash Out! -
Here's one thing about Avatar that everyone is over looking. Cameron will raise the bar so high, that each and every film produced after it will strive to attain Avatar's greatness.
-
He told Jim that he really believed in the movie. Yeah right, more like the paycheck.
-
haters would love to believe, Many of us are not just blindly believing anything. Unlike them those of us that have bothered to read the old scriptment and follow what been going on with this movie from the few leaked bits of info, and based on the people working on this, we have a level of excitement or opinions that are actually based on something. So going by what is in the old scriptment, that picture is exciting because its of the mech armour used in several very cool action set pieces. And they are described as being quite fast and agile (no slow lumbering Mecha here).
-
AVATAR - FUCKING YOUR EYEBALLS IN 2009!nothingelsematters
-
Come Cameron, let's get something with motion, mood, startling imagery and excitement to wet our gullets.We've been ready—let's have it.
-
Bless your fiendish heart
-
Bless your fiendish heart
-
updating of jhon carter of mars, mixed with dune, and a bit of matrix and 2001 thrown in. It reads like a live action Miziyaki film, with a strong anime influence (i.e the mech armour). Also, there are many strange alien creatures that we have never seen on screen before. Its epic on the scale of LOTR, and refreshingly for big budget sci-fi, it has an adult tone to it. It uses some of Cameron's classic script structure whereby the entire third act is just one big action set piece after another...
-
or does no one else have a clue what they're looking at??
-
about it (if epic sci-fi action is your thing), provided Weta, Digital Domain, and Stan Winston studios can pull of the effects photo realistically. Its very ambitious, and quite risky what they are trying for imho...
-
dude? Damn, i know you have a serious hate boner for all things Cameron, but that really seems like looking too hard for something to hate....
-
I'm just not feeling it when I look at that picture.
-
leg and articulated hand. And Im fairly certain of this haven read the old scriptment..
-
just how is anything supposed to live up to such ridiculous expectations? I really get the feeling some people are expecting to actually have their eyeballs fucked, even by any small glimpse of something....
-
— I don't get it. Is there any REAL criticism of this guys movies or is it just a "Cameron sux" rant that seems to be a transferred disgust with the PR department promoting him? Is it some need to just hate on his aesthetic or is there something else more legitimate?
-
When do we get the teaser trailer?!?!?
-
6 months before premiere and not even a teaser? That is just fucking arrogant. It's as we are not worthy to see anything. Hope Avatar is not going be your personal Titanic,Jim!!
-
Put me down somewhere in the middle...
I for one am expecting some cool shit but my hopes are tempered. I learned my lesson with Matrix Revolutions...I thought that movie was going to be the 'be all end all'. It was a long fall from THAT prepice let me tell you. -
...just to piss Motoko off.
-
Are you retarded? I would bet my life that nearly everything that far in the future is made of some type of composite/plastic. Stuff that is ridiculously light and stronger than metal. And I guarantee you that Cameron has thought of that.
-
otherwise, no one will be interested in seeing this ;)
-
either Transformers or Harry Potter. More likely Potter since it will have IMAX-3D. Can't wait.
-
Ow, my eyeballs have been fucked and now are sore.
-
Please, do go on about how this movie is the bee's knees so we can all ignore it and move on with our lives.
-
Which already means it'll be on a level far above JJ Abrams, Peter Berg and all those other shaky-cam hacks.All you kids are gonna find out what an event film is supposed to look and sound like.
-
James "King Of The World" Cameron has been cocking around underwater looking at sunken boats, as well as digging around in the dirt looking for the corpse of the Christ. listen again to his Oscar speeches and his ramblings about Jesus' burial site. he has lost the plot, and anyone expecting Avatar to be any good is just totally fucked in the head.
-
im not interested in Cameron's personal life, how he views himself, or whatever...i only care about his movies, and based on his past track record and what I know about Avatar, i have good reason to be optimistic...
-
approaching actual criticism, its all mostly "cameron sucks" type stuff. I swear Cameron must have anal raped some of these people's mothers with the level of passionate hate displayed. Dont worry i dont get it either. Cameron isnt my buddy, I dont go drinking beer with him or hang out with him...so i dont care if he is an asshoole. I only care that he cares about the movies he makes and that he puts everything into them. And that he puts his money where his mouth is. For the level of quality he provides, I dont care how hard he pushes his crews etc...the results are there on the sceern imho....
-
you are the chaff that will be burned and cast off. avatar will rip off your head and skull fuck you.
-
A LEG CAN´T FUCK OUR EYEBALLS IN 2009!
-
I thought everyone got the memo...
-
but not really. Waiting for this movie is giving me blue eyeballs... if you catch my meaning.
-
Where The Abyss is shit and Star Trek is amazing.
-
And no one can combine never-before-seen spectacle, quotable lines, and memorable characters like he can. His movies are epic and have heart. And NO ONE does action as well as he does.
-
I met him once and he was very gracious and had intelligent things to say. Would have loved to talk to him more but, I had to give time away to the 'Dark Angel' fanatics.He just seemed passionate about movies in general and didn't seem like a 'douche' or pretentious to me. He came across as a passionate guy who is driven to put everything he has into movies for a mass audience.
-
amazes me how some here support certain directors like a fucking sports team i.e for their "team" to succeed, your "team" must somehow loose type mentality. I thought we are discussing an art form. If somehting isnt to your taste..great, but then move on, nothing here for you to see...Also amazes me how so called film geeks are more interested in what the tabloids ay about famous people than discussing/debating the work of a filmaker based soley on its merits. But time and time again, when some sad desperate asshole wants to tear down some dorectors work, they useally just pull shit out of their ass to justify their opinion which is really the result of something they read in some tabloid mag...
-
that confuse their opinion with fact. You know the ones that shout "Avatar will suck, thats a fact", or "Avatar will bomb" "you know it and I know it" etc...Do these cunts have time machines? Pray do tell how you know this exactly? Oh..wait you dont, you re just expressing your deepest fantasies and passing it off as fact in the vain belief that if you believe hard enough it will come true. Its like the same lot who were all over any terminator related talkbacks telling everyone that would listen how T4 would "ROCK" and how it would "PWN" the first two movies. Funny how they have become mostly quiet now that T4 failed to do either....
-
Just sayin.
-
You can't see nothing on that photo. It's like an ink bolt test. It can only reassure the feelings you already have.
-
—hell, I even read something about Tarkovsky having heated arguments in at the VGIK where beer mugs started flying. Passion breeds passion, I guess.
-
but that's a Caucasian mech you're looking at...
-
trying to offend anyone or start some shit, but sometime the mindset you encounter on these talkbacks is just really odd to say the least...
-
May 26, 2009 4:19:04 AM CDT
For those saying that the mech is too Caucasian or not Asian eno
by themarinebiologist
... I tip my hat to you.
-
I knew it would be cut off and prepared this post accordingly.
-
description I immediately think of CATS with less jazz hands.
-
Wrong. Paul Verhoeven did many times and sometimes better (moving stairways-chase in Total Recall f.e.). But you are right: as Paul Verhoeven stopped making good movies since years and JC at least started again he's action-man Nr. 1.Until we actually SEE Avatar that is. Maybe it's an overhyped borefest, who knows?
-
When Avatar is fucking out eyeballs in 2009.
Tyler Perry's A V A T A R.
FUCK YEAH -
That not even Pixar's John Carter of Mars will be... I can't wait for this Edgar Rice inspired Escapist flick.
-
Let's just clear this up, in the real world: RAPE (even as analogy) is never even mildly amusing or witty. Sorry to rain on your parade Quint!?.....
-
We care about Cameron as a film-maker now? He's spent 50% of the last 20 years underwater looking for the titanic (or something) and we still have faith in his film-making prowess? TO quote Worthington: meh.
-
Enjoy McG, Abrams, Sommers, Bay this summer. Those of us who actually have a fucking clue will wait for Avatar come December.
-
All of the gaging-on-Cameron's-cock that is going on over in the TOTALLY HILARIOUS "T4: Adequate Action Movie More In Line With The Premise Than T2: WAAAH!" talkback inspired me to re-watch his best film this weekend: ALIENS. I'm happy to report that it still holds up and is still super cool. I hope that he will be making a return to the spirit that inspired that amazing film, rather than the mediocre family friendly doofus who emerged from the murky depths after The Abyss tanked. Heres to hoping its more than just "OK".
-
How does it rate alongside Mostows T3?
-
Oh boy Jimbo, I would have expected a teaser trailer to be present on at least one of the latest cohort of summer event movies- Star Trek would have been perfect- but nothing, not a sausage...I wonder if a trailer will be present with TF2. I mean we have trailers come out on films that are not even released for one year, and with around six months to go I find this very odd. I love sci fi, I love JC's sci fi films, so I am hoping this will be good.
-
Atrocious editing and McGs hackery aside, I thought T4 was an enjoyable (tho derivative and disposable) action movie much more in line with the original premise than the Family Friendly Adventure Film for Children T2: WAAAAAAAH!!!
-
weren't the cannes results mentioned as news on acn? Isn't film cool any more? Aren't the cannes results film news cool enough to be reported on here? Nice picture of a bit of metal though...

My eyes are now at the shower, crying, washing the semen off
by ricarleite2
Then my eyes go to the police station and, while sobbing, say how they were penetrated in the... vagina... *cries*
-
Like a picture of a fork-lift. *yawn*
-
fuckhead to show up and sound stupid. As always he never dissapoints. Sure pal, keep telling us all how T4 "ROCKS" and "Pwns" cos the jokes on you pal. All that inane ranting about it and the movies a giant turd...actually makes sense that you like it as your complete lack of understanding of basic film knowledge means you truly cant tell the diffrence between shit like that and respected movies....Also love your pathetic back peddling regarding T4....
-
thrown at you, you fucking mental midget. All the crap you keep throwing at T2 as proof that it sucks goes 10 times for T4, so why the fuck has nt your head exploded from the insane double standard?....probably because you are too oblivious to be that self-aware...
-
that is all.
-
Your incoherent rants are my favorite of all of them. I like how you never actually read any of my posts, even the ones where I praise Cameron's early work -- especially the original Terminator and Aliens -- and yet IMMEDIATELY go into IMPOTENT OBESE VIRGIN RAGE MODE whenever I deign to mention the Lord Your God, Jim "I Made Two Good Movies In The 80s" Cameron in anything less than a supplicant fashion, on knees, begging for more. I suppose thats what separates the Men from the Eternally Virginal Fanbots Writhing In Torment in the Mother's Basement (Or OUthouse) Of The Soul.Also, I don't think I ever used the word "ROCKS" to describe T4. Previous to seeing it, I did say that it LOOKS LIKE it will PWN T2. For me, subjective me, T4 was amateurly constructed, atrociously edited, and yet a decent action movie that I found entertaining. MUCH moreso than T2: WAAAAAAAAAAH!!! Moreover, it was truer to the original premise than the Family Friendly Children's Adventure Film T2: ROBODADDY FALL DOWN GO BOOM. Too bad Cameron didn't have the balls to make a Future Fucking War movie in 1991 because it clearly would have been better than McGs hackery, but he was too busy trashing his own scene by pandering to the Middle Class Family demographic with the Disneyfied T2: OLD ROBOYELLER. But hey, who am I to judge His Eternal Wisdom. He DID make a mint off of it... you know, by pandering to the Middle Class Family Demographic like a Disney Film Would.
-
How does Cameron's cock smell? I bet you'd say it smells of roses... perhaps... Guns N' Roses?
-
tell me, as you insult T4 and call it poorly edited, derivative, cliched, WHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT IT??? it seems like you didnt enjoy it at all, but rather you're just being delusional and not sacking up to admit that you were wrong. WHAT ACTION IN T4 ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??? aside from the road warrior ripoff, there was none. and the road warrior ripoff wasnt even that good.let Cameron go, dude. you need to break through those daddy issues.ok? you're mad at your dad, not Cameron. he forgives you.
-
fucking dipshit.
-
fuck cgi even though I know this flick will smack of it. If this is to sci fi what Titanic was to dramas then we're in for a kick ass movie. Yeah I rocked Titanic..got a problem with that?
-
...lol...seriously laserfuckhead?? you ve got the balls to call my posts incoherent?? Fuck me! thats like a retard calling me stupid, or G.Bush calling me a fuck up, it can only be a complment.....
-
IT'S FUCKING ORIGINAL!!!!!! Fuck remakes and fuck you hollywood!
-
Wow a mech suit.....yea that is gonna get me stoked to see Avatar. The more that is held back, the more pissed off I get. Part of me hopes that this movie sucks ass so all the fanboy Cameron cock suckers get knocked down for all of their bullshit praise of a movie they know nothing about. Sadly though the geek in me is mostly hoping the movie delivers on the ridiculous amount of hype it is generating. I think that a movie can be crushed by its hype, and I hope that doesn't happen here. Ok fanboys continue your CCS!!!!
-
transferring onto Cameron, ok? It was nt him that stuck his cock into your poop hole when you were a kid. cameron isnt your daddy dude!
-
The last thing that comes to mind when I ponder T2 is... "family film".
Sounds like a YOU problem. Please don't project your family issues on a cool movie just because it touches a nerve or maybe your daddy never showed you any affection other than throwing his spunk in your face. -
ion? Is that like your sex fantasy? Glad im neither of those things, but a warning to all those that may be virgins and/or obese. Keep an eye out for a mentally stunted asshole with daddy issues, he may try to fuck you....*shudder*...
-
Perhaps I should have said "fucking your eyeballs"?
-
yeah hes not saying diminishing returns cameron anymore...but that obese virgin shit is played. as is WOBODADDY!!! WE WUUUV YOU!!!
-
hard to backpeddle, without looking like he's backpeddling. He contradicts himself so much...he really is too much fun...
-
We're obviously on the same wavelength.
-
the massive contradiction in his rantings towards T2, while praising T4 as it has those issues tenfold...
-
laser is just really an indecent amount of fun is nt it? I love making him more and more pissed off, then his ranting just goes off the charts...
-
im so sick of the constant remakes/sequals/reboots/prequals..etc..No matter what, at least Cameron is doing something original, at least give him credit for that.
-
because we have read the old scriptment, and have looked for info on the net as to whos working on this movie. unlike you my friend we have a good idea what this film is about, we are nt just sucking Cameron's cock, sorry to dissapoint you. And even then Im optimistic, but no movie is a gauranteed slam dunk. But with Cameron's past track record im willing to give him the benefit of the doubt...thats all. And trust me dude, if you are a real sci-fi geek, there is a lot of stuff that we could be geekingout to....
-
Jesus, is there any other kind of talkbacker? And Sgt.Murtaugh'sPenileOpenWound is their lord and savior.
-
Looks great to me. I don't see too many movies in theaters anymore, but I really want to be there opening night.
Man, do I. -
Do you really think that 'T2' was 'family friendly'? Seems to me it replaced the love story dynamic of the first film with a father/son theme relevant to John Conner as a teen. Why does that make the movie 'family friendly' if it's essentially from Sarah Conners pov? Wouldn't her character be looking for some kind of functional dynamic for her son—the irony being the father figure is a reprogrammed machine designed to exterminate humans? Isn't that actually addressed with Sarah Conners voice over watching her son 'hi–five' the Terminator?I'm not attacking you, but I just wondered if that registered. It seems you're attacking the movie as a 'weak sister' of the first movie but it's whole point is to explores a different thematic line.Of course if that thematic line doesn't resonate with you, then it doesn't matter at the end of the day if the film succeeds on it's on terms. Just thought I'd point that out though.
-
They did it to ROBOCOP. They did it to ALIENS. They did it to just about everything. There may be visible weapon systems ... but when they get to "the planet" there'll be some moment when someone shouts "Uh-uh ... we can't actually fire these or it'll disrupt the ecosystem!" or "Wait - oh no - who put all the Mech weapon systems offline?" Come on, people. This isn't going to be Rated R. There's no way there will be antic gunplay or intense action. They'll maybe SHOW the weapons, but they'll not USE them. And as for how it relates to ABYSS - they're both eco-screeds which criminizalize capitalism and free enterprise and extole the virtue of tribal living without technology.
-
He's just filmically challenged.

I think I'll sit my 5 year old daughter down tonight with some popcorn and snuggle up to the family friendly imagery of atomic blasts incinerating people, impalings and arm flesh being ripped off of exo-skeletons.
It will be just like the time we watched the Wizard Of Oz together...ah, the memories. -
pretty much just hit the nail on the head.
-
Fucking hilarious.

Who cares about the rating? "The Dark Knight" was PG-13. Did that film suffer because of the rating? "The Abyss" was also pg-13. Didn't that have intense action?I think 'action' works best when it's based in emotion. No one really remembers the 'action' in "Transformers". They remember spectacle—compare that to the 1st "Die Hard"—people think of John McClain in emotionally charged situations. The action is still tight, but the characters sell the moments.What virtue is free enterprise when humanity is almost extinct in Conner's world?
-
and already you want see all the trailers?? why, so you can see all the money shots before you experience the actual movie???
hollywood has numb you into thinking that seeing 10 different variations of a movie before release is actually a good thing. be thankful cameron has more respect for you geeks than you actually deserve.
if there's one movie you want to go in blind, it's THIS movie! you have been waiting 12 years for cameron's return, and now you want all the surprises ruined before you actually experience it on the big screen?
morons the lot of you. -
I, personally just wanna see something that approximates the tone of the movie. Kinda like the seond "Aliens" trailer. No voice over. No dialogue. Just a haunting score over moments in the teaser.It didn't give away a single plot point.
-
Cameron is great, but he's not the end all filmmmaker he's built up to be. Sure I'm excited for this movie, but I think the lack of teasers, etc. serves the film right. I'd perfer to not see a damn second of it before I go into the theater. I guarantee you that we'd all be thanking the man after the fact were that the case.
-
i haven't heard shit about this movie except on sites like AICN. I'm not going to get my geek-juices pumping until I hear some mainstream coverage.
-
T4 bombed critically and commercially and still he's adamant about it being better than T2. the guy has turned into a joke and is now just being a hopeless troll.
dont feed the troll.
we know T2 is great movie. no need to defend it to an idiot. -
he will bite Cameron hands. believe it.
-
I have to sign in to say it wasn't worth signing in for. I'm staring at something that looks like a five year old glued together out of cereal boxes and painted army green. woot, no no really woot. Well done. Have a biscuit.
-
I would skip EVERYTHING ELSE in 2009 to see James Cameron's AVATAR. "DISTRICT 9" is the only thing that would make me pause, at such a choice.
-
you want to see the tone, really? here, let me help. it's a cameron movie. it's an epic love story set in another world. you can deduct the tone for yourself from that basic info.
the movie is still a 7 months away. you want to see the tone NOW? what else do you want to see next week? how about next month?
have patience. all will be revealed in due time. you've waited this long, why not wait just a little while longer. you think cameron doesnt want to show you all the cool stuff now? he's just showing restraint. you guys should return the favor. you know you will be rewarded for it. -
Honestly, my Christmas could go from "most anticipated" to "worst Christmas ever" ...if I can't witness Cameron's AVATAR in 2D.
-
Would be a travesty if we didn't get a comment from you when the first review is out.
Harry get this guy in to do a review when the time comes. Yes he will be biased but it's not like we haven't seen bias on this site.
-
I'm glad that their seems to be a lot of actual sets being built for this film, i was kinda worried that it would be real actors then everything else would be cgi.
-
I tend to go a bit overboard, but let me clarify without getting crazy....James Cameron is a GREAT film maker, Aliens, one of my all time favs, T1 & T2, classics in every sense of the word. Titanic was a great achievement, but IMO, it weakens after repeated viewings. Regardless, I have no doubts that Avatar will be a good film. It is all the top secrecy stuff that makes me sick, now I like to go into a movie with some knowledge of what I am seeing, but I do like to be surprised as well. So I am not saying that we should be given every last detail of the film, or that we need to see as many stills/clips as we can, not at all, because that, as we have seen can ruin a movie before you even see it.It is unreasonable to think that Cameron making another movie is not going to be mega hyped, it is expected, nor am I putting down anyone who is excited to see this. What does bother me is the ones who have already decided this is the greatest movie of the 21st century to this point, and nobody has seen it. Considering the crap that has been out so far this year, I understand the building excitement. I understand I may be in the minority here, but I don't give a free pass to someone based on past achievements. Do I expect great things from this film? Yes. But every great film maker has missteps (Spielberg anyone?). All I am saying is that the hype being built up could ultimately sink this movie, with expectations so high. Call me cautious, hype is one thins, but unrealistic expectations is another, and it seems that this movie is heading away from hype and into unrealistic expectations.
-
was awesome too, the one that Cameron cut himself. Please go this route again Jimbo, give us a trailer that sets the film up atmospherically but doesnt show all the money shots. We're almost there...18 years since Cameron's last sci-fi movie, only 7 months left to go.
-
Cameron is doing a Q&A screening of his personal 70mm prints of Aliens and The Abyss on 29th May (this Friday) - any chance of some coverage?
-
you yourself said cameron is a "great" filmmaker. you said his sci-fi is "classics". and now the guy is back after 12 years hiatus, back to the genre he does best, and you're upset that people are super excited???
if you're not highly excited by the potential, that's your business. dont get upset when others are. -
I think we're going get what we want from Cameron. Great action, convincing drama, good humor, good characterization, and ground-breaking visuals.
And looking at the design of that robot, makes me wish James Cameron became the director of the "Transformers" trilogy. -
i dont see this happening with AVATAR. for the sole reason that it hasnt been shoved down our throats should be great expectations. Cameron is pretty much saying THE FILM WILL SPEAK FOR ITSELF. teasers and trailers will come, but i dont see pizza huts ads in AVATAR's future.
-
The usual comedy circus of the talkbacks, I mean. The Aliens vibe from this suit is very welcome. Who was that above who said there were no weapons in this movie? - dude, this movie has more firepower than Harry's asshole after ten vindaloo curries!! Those who have read the scriptment know this. Which brings me on to something else - rogueleader66, people are excited about this not out of blind servitude to Cameron, but because some of us have enough detailed knowledge of what this film is about, and where Cameron is going with it, to at least make some sort of informed judgment. I wish some of you would realise that.Now this film doesn't have particularly much in common with The Abyss tone-wise (and that wouldn't be a bad thing, since the director's cut of Abyss is arguably Cameron's best along with Aliens); this will be the kind of thing that appeals to a big audience; epic space opera but with a hard sci-fi grounding. Make no mistake, this is Cameron's Star Wars (something that will be even more apparent if he gets to make this a proposed trilogy - and he has already sketched out the stories for films 2 and 3, or so I heard). This combines the best of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, Aliens, and anime, while being entirely its own film. This is epic, mythological sci-fi action, classic Joseph Campbell heroe's journey stuff. I put my money on the fact that when Cameron is done here, he will be as revered as Lucas was in the late 70's/early 80's (not that he isn't revered by knowledgable people already) - maybe even more so. Cameron's career from T1 to Titanic was merely stage one. Everything from Avatar on will be stage 2. The new tech is going to allow him to tell stories on a scale never seen before. I can't fucking wait to see what he's going to bring us over the next ten years - his long absence playing Captain Nemo at the botom of the ocean will have been worth it. He is going to be elevated into a whole new level of filmmaking with this - and only the most moronic and deluded (mentioning no names) will stubbornly refuse to see it.
-
word up.
-
when he has two series to play with - avatars and battle angel alita?
cameron is doing big budget sci-fi back to back. he's building two new franchises for him to play in. i'm telling you, the guy is just getting started. -
WILL KATE WINSLET BE IN IT, AND WILL BE SEE HER HAIRY LITTLE ASSHOLE? LET'S HOPE SHE GETS THAT THING WAXED FIRST. JUST SAYIN' YOU MONGS.
-
Ehhhhh.....If you actually read what i said, I did NOT get upset about the excitement about this movie, I said it IS something to get excited about. It is the ones who are over excited, already saying it is the greatest movie of the 21st century without having yet seen it, that bugs me. Excitement is fine, and Cameron returning to sci-fi is a big thing. I am just cautious, because I do not want to see this movie crumble under the weight of its own hype, and I am pretty sure Cameron doesn't either. Despite my complaints, I know I will see the film because it IS something to be excited about considering Hollywood has become the land of remakes and unoriginal ideas, and Cameron is, as you stated, returning to the genre he does best.
-
It's titbag, everyone's favorite limited vocabulary talkbacker. How is the 4th grade dude?
-
a real spy pic would show the whole thing, not just a leg. This is viral marketing. Looks cool, but relax people. It´s just...a leg.
-
THEN YOU TWITS CAN ARGUE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT CAMERON HAS GIVEN EACH OF THEM A BIG ENOUGH PACKAGE.
-
...I immedeatley scroll to the next post. Nothing to see, just keep moving.
-
Oh I read all of that idiot's posts, they are pretty amusing in an elementary school way.
-
You make valid points that I do not disagree with, but as I have said, I can see this movie easily falling on the weight of its own hype. Do I think it is gonna happen? Most likely no, considering it is Cameron, but anything is possible. That being said , I hope you are right about this being the start of Cameron's Stage Two, and I being the geek that I am will see this movie.
-
No one is talking to you little boy, move on.
-
Of course I'm interested in this movie, but everybody's cumming on themselves over something we haven't seen a single frame of. It's the normal chain of events. Geekdom builds itself into a lather over something, only to inevitably pick it apart, and take a shit on it after it's been out for a few weeks. Now, Star Trek seems to have bucked that trend. But, even that isn't impervious to the scrutiny of the unwashed and unfucked. So, I'm just saying, temper those expectations. Don't forget, this dude's last dramatic flick blew massive amounts of cock. Ah, but Leo in that tux...sigh.
-
where is it that i mentioned his personal life? fucking about filming shipwrecks and his quest for the remains of The Christ ARE HIS PROFESSIONAL OUTPUT FOR THE LAST 12 YEARS. i couldn't give a fuck about his private life, and i know nothing about it. you seem like a decent guy who gets flak, don't like up to that by not being intelligent enough to read my comments properly. it would be ace if Avatar is an "eyeball fucker", but it is not going to be - the man is a corporate whore (evidence : lame cinema cut of Abyss, he is only too happy to give up his "artistic vision") who has been out of touch with film-making for at least a decade. he will deliver a just under 3 hour shitty PG-13 thing that the studio believe will sell them lots of toys and merchandise at the convenient Christmas release date. anyone expecting anything different had best keep friends close by to assist you in fighting off the inevitable suicidal thoughts when Cameron is exposed as a second rate Brett Ratner.

Legitimate Criticism of Cameron's Film? Um, dialogue?
by jackrabbitslim
"Oooh, Jack, I want you to draw me like one of your French ladies. Wearing this. Wearing *only* this." Please - defend that load of codswallop. Guy is a terrific action director whose *emotional* dialogue scenes are at best clunky and at worst unlistenable.

if 3D movies give you a headache, then i suggest that you either get whoever looks after you to put the glasses on properly for you, or otherwise just avoid 3D films. even better would be if you fucked off as per the wise suggestion of rogueleader66, but that's not going to happen, is it?
-
and it's in their nature to exaggerate. i can hardly blame them though in this case. 12 years. that's a long long time. some people are just going to hype themselves up just to endure the wait.
-
sorry
-
IT'S BEEN NOTHING BUT SHITE SINCE.
-
when Cameron gets asked the inevitable question about how will pirate DVD's affect the performance of the film, his answer will be "what is a DVD?". that's what 12 years away from proper film-making means, folks. there will be no posters, promos, trailers or press screenings. Harry will not be led to a hotel room to watch this. go back to anything pre-Titanic and admire and just assume the man who made them is dead.
-
the type that is so sure avatar is going to suck. for years you only got bay and ratner and sommers and that guy who did indy4 to fill your summer movies with, and now cameron is coming back to filmmaking, and you wish for him to fail? wow.
what a spoiled little geek you are. maybe the bays and the ratners are all you deserve. -
Cameron a 'second-rate Brett Ratner'? You're almost as ridiculous as Danny Dickblood - and that takes some doing. Would you like me to come over and assist you in easing your passage off this planet - preferably with a 12 gauge shotgun blast straight to the balls? Hasta la Vista, Baby!
-
you may see cameron hiatus as "12 years away from proper film-making". still others can say that he's exploring and developing new techs(he designed a new 3D camera for avatar), researching about new worlds(underwater is the next best thing if you cant go into space), and watching and learning from the sideline how hollywood has changed in his absent. you think after he watched how the SW prequels crashed and burned, after he saw how matrix and LOTR changed the game, he didn't take note? the guy is no idiot. he's not coming back just to repeat lucas's mistake.
-
"...a second rate Brett Ratner."
You just vaporized any shred of credibilty you may have had with that comment. -
His dialogue is much more suited to the sci-fi genre arena. We all know Avatar is going to kick ass, the only question is "How much?"
-
...IS AN INSULT TO RATNER YOU FUCKING NUTSACKS. GOD. YOU NONCES HAD BETTER START AMUSING ME TOOT SWEET.
-
Thats embarassing. Whoever's doing the designs for these things should be sacked. No matter how photoreal something is, if the concept sucks, the end product sucks.
-
A lot of the dialogue in Titanic was quite good (ie. anything with the Thomas Andrews character, or the conversations between the historical characters). Yes, there was some flowery melodramatic stuff in there, but overall it was by no means atrocious like it has been unfairly branded.Anyway, the myth that Cameron can't write dialogue (I know that isn't what you were saying), or even can't write period(!) is exactly that - a myth. there are dozens of great exchanges and memorable lines in all his movies - and in True Lies, he even proved he could write great comedy dialogue (the dialogue between Arnie and Jamie Lee had a touch of screwball comedy about it). And as we all know, he is a master of structure,plotting, set-ups and pay-offs, and all the non-verbal aspects of screenwriting (which are, in fact, the most important aspects).
-
"What is it?"
"It's a leg!"
"But what is it?"
"Well, it's... A leg, you know, like a statue."
"Statue?"
"Yeah, statue." -
Titanic gets too much shit because little girls loved it. Yes, it is melodramatic, but most epics are. Gone with the Wind has some howlers in it as well. When put against crap like Pearl Harbor, Titanic is miles better.
-
Cameron's best film has to be Suburban Commando
-
I hear you. The screenplay for True Lies was fantastic, probably the last time I heard audiences laugh out loud and gasp with excitement during the same film. And Cameron is indeed a master of structure.
Still no fan of the Titanic dialogue though. Especially the exchange between Kate Winslet and Billy Zane discussing the paintings, a scene full of howlers: "Something Picasso? He won't amount to a thing. I promise you!" and "Its like something out of a dream or something. There's truth but no logic." -
the dialogue was good in titanic considering. what did you want them to talk about for 2 hours before the ship sunk? the picasso was a slight throwaway joke that MAINSTREAM audiences would giggle at--"but he will amount to something! HA!"its scores ahead of anything in a film these days.
-
they will never make a film like that again. EVER. no studio has the sack to take on such a task. THE DUDE built an almost scale replica of the SHIP!!! Cameron gives 200% all the time! EVERYTIME!
-
you would like Ratner
-
I don't care what anyone here writes, I think it's a fantastic and moving film about love, sacrifice, and roads less taken in life. Cameron made a great film, in my opinion, on both a technical and artistic level, a story that stands up just fine against any film put out in the last ten years.
Ridicule me if you want, but I think people that dislike (or hate) the film for its lines and intimate moments likely have problems with these issues in their own lives. Being hip and jaded will do that to you.
Cameron doesn't give a shit about your small-minded critiques, however. There was a reason the movie played so well to such a diverse audience, and that's because it's a great film.
Just had to get that off my chest. -
Your screen name tells me all I need to know about your sense of judgement.
Dismissed. -
Actually, I am too...

Thats a leg from a old Battletech mech called a "Thor", almost verbatim

OH, TOO LATE.
I WONDER HOW THE BALL LICKING WILL SHAPE UP BETWEEN JJ AND CAMERON? IS THERE ENOUGH AICN SPITTLE TO LATHER UP THE BOTH OF THEM?
WILL LEONARDO EXECUTE ANOTHER MASSIVE BATCH OF OVERACTING IN THIS FLICK? -

California's system of government is a joke. It's a system that allowed carpetbaggers to hijack that election back in November. You can't legislate love. I don't care who you are, if your life is so empty, that you actually care about two guys or gals getting married, you are a loser. Bravo to the North East. The new center of progress in the country. We Californians? Well, we still have stem-cell research to piss-off christians. Hail Satan!

Is a masterpiece. Millions of 14 year old girls in love with Leonardo Dicaprio at the time shouldn't take away from that fact.
-
Liked the Aliens,Abyss, Titanic, and T1.
T2 was not all that great, but people were to impressed with the T-1000 nobody noticed Arnie balls had been chopped off by Furlong.
I am going to wait until I see the movie before I pass judgement. I know, a novel concept in these parts, but that's just me. -

Yep. I said it.

It's fucking awful. It's the worst-case scenario of the MTV type of editing that died out about 10 yrs ago. Not to mention the really smug yet lame humor. I was surprised, because the site is great. But, this show: Certified Shit.

You could show a movie on Lewis' forehead and Plimpton could make paint peel off a wall just by looking at it. Horrid.
-
what do you mean, spoilage?? granted you've probably seen the film by now, but by watching that, you really have no idea how the plot will turn out. they leave out the whole nuclear part. basically you know its aliens in the bottome of the sea. a close encounters underwater...thats it.
-
, but fair enough perhaps I did tn read your post carefully enough. But im afraud dude that if you cant tell the difference between Cameron's movies and a complete studio hack like Ratner...then you and I have nothing to talk about..
-
of the hate that appears on Cameron related talkbacks is always focused on and clearly based on (though they wont admit tit) personal issues with him...
-
dudes? As someone above posted I love how it looks like the mech armour looks functional and does nt seem to be at all overdesigned ala Bay's transformers. Also love that we are seeing real sets and props, but thats not suprising to those that have actually paid attention to what Cameron has said, that Avatar will be about 50% cgi and 50% live action. And remember that Stan (R.I.P)Winston studios have admitted to doing practical effects for Avatar. And the great man himself (stan that is helped with many of the creature designs) I for one am glad that this will be Stan's swansong...it seems fitting that it should be a Cameron sci-fi movie imho...
-
Predator, Aliens, Terminator, the Penguin, Edward Scissorhands, etc. and it was all practical and LOOKED real. thats what i love about Cameron's films--they looked plausible. when the alien queen and the powerloader were getting it on, that was intense! there was heat there. nowadays you have gungans fighting droids or optimus fighting megatron..there's nothing at stake..no emotion. stan winston always brought out the emotion and im glad this is his swan song..ps i dont really think he did anything for T4 they just took his creations and used them...like HG giger in Alien 3. PPS it pissed me off they dedicated T4 to Winston, another attempt to get credibility.
-
I did...weird right?
-
is the only Cameron film I don't love. I definitely like it, and it has a couple of great sequences, the best being Bud and Lindsay trapped in the mini-sub. I hope AVATAR is more like ALIENS than THE ABYSS. If Cameron pulls off what he is attempting then we will have an immediate classic that has the impact of KING KONG and JURASSIC PARK. The talkbackers here that think this will be a complete misfire didn't read the scriptment. Period. I read the first half and had to restrain myself from going further. My logic being that if he ever actually got it made I will have spoiled what was reading as the most epic movie ever made. I'll end with this statement to the naysayers: You will have your opinion changed. You won't have a choice. Fox knows they are sitting on something special. Believe it.
-
Cameron can be hit or miss?
Big Jim's four ex-wives will tell you he doesn't miss often.
-
...BEAT LINDA HAMILTON SENSELESS WHENEVER SHE WOULD YELL AT HIM FOR REFERENCING HIMSELF IN THE THIRD PERSON ALL THE TIME.
"JAMES CAMERON DOESN'T EAT PASTA"
"JAMES CAMERON DOESN'T WATCH EARTH2"
"JAMES CAMERON DOESN'T MAKE ROBOT MOVIES"
THAT SORT OF THING? -
You can do one of the pussy style 90s+ movies with "no weapons of any kind" while still showing weapons in the shots. In fact, the biggest moment of "No Weapons of Any Kind" outside of ALIEN 3 came in THE ROCKETEER, when the lead character - the Rocketeer - grabs a gun at one point toward the end so he can fly to the top of Griffith Observatory for the poster/trailer moment of the light shining on him from below while he holds a gun ... only to have him then promptly lose it "Oh no!" within 60 seconds or so. THAT is "No Weapons of Any Kind." There mgiht be all kinds of firepower IN the movie, but we won't see it fired ... nor the impact of the damage. All off-screen, unseen, PG-13, you know what I mean?

whats the fuss, its just some leg.
-
You must be high on coke...because YOU HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. We WILL see weapons fired in this movie. Lots of 'em. Big, honking, huge guns. Enormous explosions. Dead aliens. Dead marines. In other words: TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION.

Cobra-Kai and Titbag, you're sick fantasies do not exist in this
by turdontherun
Cameron only opens a can of whoop-ass on his crew!You've been spending too much time with Danny Dickhead, and his deranged and disgusting mysoginistic jokes.
-
(Fuck AICN and its antiquated posting system - do something about it, Harry, you lazy idiot)
-
Maybe he got numbtongue.
-
Just the way the Warrior likes it.
-
guys are so desperate to trash Cameron that they have to resort to making up complete bullshit about him. Personally I think accusing someone of something a sdisgusting as wife beating when not one shred of evidence exists is just flat out scummy, and pathetic. Some talkbackers really are just emotionally stunted children....
-
weapons conspiracy? He obviously has nt read the script, so how the hell can he be so convinced. Geez, its been a while since i read it, but there is a lot of action involving guns, and some pretty intense action. I think Cameron will get around it becos the action and violence is often with aliens, alien creatures, or mech armour...something the MPAA does nt ssem to care about too much....Does this guy work for the NRA or something? He seems kind of obsessed about guns and the possible lack thereof...
-
All of you Cameron haters better watch out. Big Jim might just have to come over and smack your stupid mouths...with his directing genius.
When Avatar comes out, I can't wait to hear all of the peons on this talkback use ridiculous gossip as their only method to criticize an obviously great action director.
Who is better than Cameron in terms of story structure, framing and set-up and payoff? I would love to hear it. -
its going to be hilarious to see what shit they can pull out of their asses lol. And I too would love to hear an answer to your question...
-
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/thedishrag/2009/05/james-cameron-avatar.html
-
Because you KNOW that Avatar will be pushed back to December 2010.
-
Show me something good. Or get out.
-
does nt look like we will get anything but teases still for a while. And im really haooy about that, i really dont want this to be overhyped by marketing for months in advance, or numerous trailers that give everything away, and all the best shots. I want to be completely suprised and not feel like I have already seen the damn movie before I see it..just like it used to be with movies like T2, Jurassic Park, the Matrix etc...You just go ahead teasing guys....
-
Think of Avatar like making love to your woman. You need that foreplay in order to build up anticipation. When the mystery and anticipation is properly built up, the release becomes that more wonderous. Who needs wham, bam, thank you mam? Bay lovers, that's who.
-
The title of Titbag's memoir.
-
One: AVATAR needs to be shown in 2D. Fuck 3D to all hell!Two: LaserPants is a fucking annoying douche.Three: ALIENS is still a fucking amazing piece of film.Four: As much as I would love to see a trailer of AVATAR, I have the biggest respect for Mr. Cameron for not spoiling anything so far. The STAR TREK and TERMINATOR 4 ads were defintitely giving away too much. Plus, you don't actually need 10 clips with all the cool scenes in it to show how cool your movie is.
-
Unless he beats on your mom too.
-
wife beating. Because I have never seen, or heard any such allegations or evidence. Nor have I heard of when Cameron was charghed with this. You are most welcome to whatever your personal opinions are, but when you have to stoop so low to make complete bullshit up (especially about something as disgusting as wife beating) because you are desperate to trash Cameron, then you sir a scumbag...Where I come from making serious allegations like that about someone's character is just flat out scummy...
-
allegations that is....
-
about how annoying Laserfuckhead is. And yeah you are super right about the 10 scenes. Geez, talk about a hard sell from a desperate director craving credibility...

I admit that...even if my eyes don't work with this 3D technology, I may yet sit and watch an entire showing of Cameron's AVATAR in 3D (after having seen it in 2D). But how sad,...the hope of getting a small hint of that experience, and not having the physical capability to do so.
-
happening in that scene. Its a depiction of a guy beating the shit out of his bitch because he just feels like it. Nothing to do with an emotionally intense moment where a guy is trying to bring the women he loves back to life by willing her to do so....*sarcasm mode deactivated*

J, you color blind?

Oh, it's just that I hate seeing people fooled, and I hate it when Hollywood lies. The nadir came when I was sitting in a theater and a trailer came up showing an astronaut ... and then a skull-face inside the helmet ... and said as follows: IN SPACE ... NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM ... BUT THIS THANKSGIVING ... ON EARTH, EVERYONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM! And we all cheered in the theater ... cheers for a traielr ... because we all knew ALIEN 3 was coming! And it was gonna be set on EARTH! BOOYAH! It was going to be AWESOME! IT WAS GOING TO BE WALL-TO-WALL ACTION! IT WAS GOING TO BE BALLS-TO-THE-WALL ARMIES OF SPACE MARINES FIGHTING ALIENS ON EFFING EARTH! But ... then .... the actual trailer for ALIEN 3 came out, featuring Ripley with the now-immortal line: "You mean we have NO WEAPONS OF ANY KIND?" When that trailer aired, there was an audible groan that passed through the entire theater I was in, compared to the cheer from before ... we ALL KNEW what "no weapons of any kind" meant. A -complete clusterfest- of a movie. And that's what we got. So when I see people going WOW AVATAR WILL BE ACTION-PACKED LIKE TERMINATOR 2 AND ALIENS!, I laugh, because I know that it's not only not true ... but that it will be as action-packed as an episode of CAPTAIN PLANET.

Fucking your tastebuds in 2009.

Whats happening? Motoko: Cameron was framing all his shots for 2D so don't worry, AVATAR wiil work as both a 2D and 3D film.

So Avatar will not have weapons because Aliens 3 didn't?!?
by doctorwho?
Yeah...okay...sure.
-
going to the ALIENS/ABYSS SPECIAL EDITION 70mm print screening on Friday? Cameron is doing a Q&A - maybe some more information will be prised out of him?
-
MADE LINDA HAMILTON WATCH AS HE PILEDRIVED SIGORNEY WEAVER'S UBER HAIRY BUTTHOLE?
THAT'S HOT!
I WONDER IF THERE WAS ANY ASS-TO-MOUTH INVOLVED, OR IF CAMERON JUST SAVES THAT FOR THE AUDIENCE? -
No, it can't be!!!
-
Classy.
-
...AT THE ALAMO GAY BATH HOUSE, AND WILL THEY FINALLY LET BLACK PEOPLE INTO AUSTIN SO THAT THEY CAN GO SEE IT?

This list of mongs ... is alive.

whats up BSB?

Me and Tit just playin' around.
-
Masterpiece, IMHO.

Avatar WILL be as action packed as Aliens and T2, even more so - it's in the scriptment, dummy! And what the heck has Alien3 got to do with it? I'm starting to think you're just a contrarian or, more likely -clinically insane!Actually, I'm lying, at the start of the big battle, the aliens and the marines, on the verge of getting ready to fire their weapons and pummel each other to death, suddenly have a revelation: "War! Huh, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing!" Then throw down their guns/spears, etc., put up the white flags, and all dance around the camp-fire, arm-in-arm, singing Kum-by-yah! Yep, you got me! Ol' Camerom loves his unexpected plot twists! Avatar, rated G for images of unity, harmony, peace, universal love, and inter-species integration! Groovy shit.

Here's a pic of Chris Pine getting some Fiji water:

Enjoy! -
What's up friend? Not much here. You know, as much as I whine about the secrecy of Avatar, I must agree that the idiots trashing Cameron are insane. I am just cautious, but I still give Cameron the props he deserves. Anyways, I do like the look of the Mech, and I also LOVE the fact that this film will be half CGI half practical effects, because I truly believe practical effects still, and always will, have a place in modern cinema. Watching Star Trek II made me realize how much more realistic spaceships look when they are models, CGI ships just don't do it for me. I have always said that CGI is wayyyyyy over used, and I still do. I think Iron Man had a good blend of practical and CGI, and I hope that the trend catches on, because people will get to the point where they are not gonna buy anything that is going on up on the screen. I Hope the trailer for Avatar is like the one for The Abyss, doesn't give much away but gives us enough of a glimpse to entice our inner geek. Peace brother.
-
I put in some scenes from LOTR Trilogy recently and was again impressed at the 'bigatures' and models WETA used and how much more 'solid' everything looked compared to any of the Star Wars prequels "all CG all the time approach"
-
cant wait for 7/21!!!!!
-
THAT BIG BLUE FAGGOT HAD A SMALL PENIS.
NEXT. -
Not true....there was actually a lot of model work in the star warsprequels - more than in the OT in fact. It certainly wasn't all CG, all the time....though it may have looked as if it was.

...ABOUT THE ABYSS TRAILER ARE FUCKING PATHETIC. HONESTLY. IT'S THE GREATEST TRAILER EVER MADE. IT'S THE FILM THAT'S FUCK ALL HORRID. LIKE ALL OF CAMEROON'S OTHER 3RD RATE FILM SCHOOL PROJECTS.
-
...OF HIM JUST BEATING THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF LINDA. NOW THAT'S SOMETHING FROM THE CAMEROON CAMP I'D PAY HARD EARNED CASH TO SEE. THEY ARE OUT THERE. A FRIEND OF MINE SAW THEM. TRUE STORY.
-
If'n you might be interested...I'm lookin' to hire some new whores for turning tricks at my place, The Gem. You'd be takin' it up the ass, sucking cock and the like. Naturally, you'll have to keep your underarms shaved and your cunt braided.What say you? You ever get fucked within an inch of your life for $5?

Funny fucking name, end of story.

When is this place ever going to be a message board?
-
I LIKE EVERYTHING YOU ARE SAYING EXCEPT FOR THE CUNT HAIR BRAIDING YOU NONCE BASTARD. AND I'LL DO IT FOR $4 SO THAT YOU CAN SAVE A FEW PENCE AND FINALLY GIVE US SEASON 3 OF THAT HORRIBLE FUCKING SHOW YOU ASSWIPE.
-
I'M TOUCHED. THANK YOU. I'M ABOUT TO TAKE A MASSIVE HOT STEAMY SHIT, AND I SHALL NAME IT AFTER YOU IN APPRECIATION.
-
For all the freaks out there that like that shit.
-
...BE 2 OR 3 LOGS. IF I'M LUCKY.
IN WHICH CASE I WILL BE SURE TO NAME ONE AFTER BSB AS WELL - BECAUSE HE TRIES VERY HARD AND DESERVES SOME FUCKING TITBAG RECOGNITION.
AND YES, I JUST REFERRED TO MYSELF IN THE 3RD PERSON. BITE ME. -
I will definately have to watch again(I doubt I will any time soon)because for the life of me EVERYTHING looked CGI to me. Especially the city and building shots.
In LOTfor example...the shot of the Fellowship boating throught The Gates of Argonath. The cameras actually panned around the statues and they looked tangible and solid...because they were. Nothing like that springs to mind in the prequels.
The thing about the OT was EVERYTHING was a model (or a matte painting)...that's all they had. Any particular shots in the prequels I may be forgetting about? -
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SCOLD SOMEONE FOR USING THE WORD 'FUCK' AND NOW IT'S GONE.
-
PLEASE RESUME YOUR INANE ACTIVITIES AS BEFORE.
-
Season fuckin' 3 notwithstanding, if'n you're going to be turning your cunt out for my financial fuckin' gain, you will abide by my price and suck cock until I say fuckin' otherwise.
-
You dirt worshippin' heathen.

I'm still laughing about that one. Anyways, yeah, I admit it, technically, T4 was pretty amateurishly made --BUT I still liked T4 more than T2. I also liked the amateurishly made Pink Flamingoes better than the Professionally made Titanic -- because the first was trashy, hilarious, and awesome and the latter was a bunch of bullshit for fat 13 year old girls who will never find a boyfriend. I can see why you liked it so much.In addition, as hacked out as it was, T4 at least had the BALLS to focus on the only thing that I wanted to see after T1 -- Future Fucking War. Some of the editing was atrocious, true, BUT, the action set pieces -- especially the Road Warrior meets War of the Worlds meets Children of Men part -- were super fuckin' cool. I'm assuming you didn't like it because of the dearth of blue tinted buttcheeks? But I get it, I really do. You're about, what, 15, 16, 17 tops? T2 was one of the first movies you ever saw. It filled an emotional gap for you -- you LIKE the idea of a Robot Assassin from the Future as Father Figure, probably because you have deep seated father issues. And thats cool, I understand. I hope you work them out some day. Maybe one of these days you'll even, I dunno, leave mom's basement? That might help. Take a little walk? Maybe a jog? Get some exercise -- something to take those unwanted pounds off (I'm assuming your about, what 150, 200 pounds overweight?), Maybe you could even, I dunno, meet a girl and talk to her. Maybe even touch her skin with your skin! And not , like a relative, or your mom, or someone you paid to touch you, but someone who actually WANTS TO! I bet when you achieve these things, that suddenly, miraculously, you won't care so much about T2: OLD ROBOYELLER: A CHILDREN'S ADEVNTURE FILM anymore. Maybe you'll even be able to laugh off the criticisms (which, if you've noticed, are mounting from all quarters) and face that facts that, yeah, T2 was kind of a lame ass movie. A lame ass movie that you like based almost wholly on nostalgia. Maybe some day. I wish you the best of luck. Please feel free to retort with whatever incoherent, rage-filled response you need to. I probably won't see it, and if I do, it wouldn't be until much later in the week. But have fun with it. Going to meet up with my girlfriend for a much needed after work drink. But, you have a nice day. Seriously!
Oh, btw, how did I feel about GnR in T4? I thought it was stupid. Too bad Cameron put it in the T2 otherwise it probably wouldn't have been featured at all. (Ouch.) -
STFU Titbag.
-
LINDA HAMILTON JUST SENT OUT A NOTICE SAYING THAT SHE'S GOING TO BE POSTING THOSE NUDE PICS OF CAMEROON IN 10MIN AND I DON'T WANT TO MISS OUT. YOU DIG? PLEASE HELP.
-
as posted before, WHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT THE FILM??? you pretty much blasted it and yet, you cant admit you're wrong about it "owning" T2. this film (T4) will never be mentioned again other than as a punchline. im actually glad you pointed out everything WRONG with T4 cause, frankly im really bored with trying to explain it to you. ive pretty much forgotten the film already, as im sure most people who've seen it. you miss the whole point of everthing the first two films held dear--THERE WAS NO NEED TO SHOW THE FUTURE FUCKING WAR!!!!!!! cameron fully intended it that way. if hed want to show it he wouldve. it was what people in "film" call "backstory" or "exposition" or a "macguffin" to get the film rolling so you don't have to have an opening title crawl. yawn. i truly do hope you liked the film, though i know you didnt. better luck next time.
-
dont presume to know who i am either. your lame attempts at an insult only show what an even bigger jackass you are. and that your skills at math suck..figure out when GNR were last relevant and do the math. no, wait that might be too hard. Titanic came out in 97, and you're claiming im 17 tops? and titanic is a film meant to be seen in the theater? so i was how old when i saw it? you're mad at your father, not Cameron. he forgives you with a cracked bottle to the skull. enjoy your "amateurishly made", "hacked out" shitty film and die. pathetic. loser. yawn.
-
they turn mighty quick on you dont they? put him down. and remember, always put one in the brain.
-
Can someone please help Titbag out?
-
Where is she these days?
-
she was good in january man and white sands and robin hood and color of money
-
365 posts for an AVATAR pic. come on!!!
-
JUST LIKE LINDA HAMILTON IS NOW. PERHAPS CAMEROON WAS RIGHT IN THROWING HER SOON-TO-BE-FAT-ASS OUT ONTO THE CURB.
-
Been smoking the crack all night, eh? Your posts definitely reflect this. Meaning: nothing you've written makes a lick of sense.
The fact you've posted IN CAPITALS ALL THE TIME makes your nonsense even worse.
Whatever. Keep smokin' DUUUUUUUDE! -
Titbag last seen having sex in a public park with Mary Elizabeth Mastratantinotona.
Firefighters who rushed to the scene used specialized equipment to extract his corpse from underneath the ex-Hollywood actress.
A young boy who witnessed the event described it as like 'Jonah and the whale'.
Titbag (real name Oswald MacGurney)was identified from dental records. The dentician said he appeared to have gone out 'with a smile'. -
For your information, Linda Hamilton still looks great. Photos of her at the 2004 "Hellboy" premiere show her to be thin, healthy, with a nice smile.
Like most posts on this thread, you're talking out of you crack-addicted ass. It's either crack, or you're 12 years old, or both.
Hamilton looks great and she's still working in film and television. Glad I could clear that up for you. -
I'd tap that Maid!
-
everything i'd do, i'd do it to her.
-
way better, im serious. but you guys will never understand. btw i also think STAR WARS prequels are also way better
-
ever just shut up and die? How many fucking times do we have to hear the same crap from this moronic troll? Will he ever have anything new to say? Not that it matters i guess since it would be just as fucking stupid as everything else he says....
-
wrong you were you coward. You went on for months about the awsomeness of T4, and now you even admit (backpeddle) that its bad, but then of course you still have to try and save some face by repeating the same ol crap you ever do (even though in case you did nt notice, almost no-one is buying your crap) God you are super pathetic.....Please just fuck off and go watch sub par sci-fi action movies like T4 (the terminator movie made for and deserved by idiots like you with fuckall film knowledge or taste) And just spare us your fucking Daddy issues already....Cameron is nt your daddy..ok? And it was nt him that touched you in that special place when you were a boy.....
-
yeah agree with you about Mary Mastrantonio. Ever notice how so many great character actors (Michael Biehn, Lance Henrikson, Michael Ironside, etc..) just seem to semi-dissapear. How is it that these guys cant get work while some really annoying "actors" seem to never stop working?
-
Yeah, totally agree with you about model work and practical effects. Thats why im not sure why so many people think Cameron has gone all cgi for Avatar. He has made it clear that models will be used, and why else would he bring Stan Winston studios on board if not to provide practical effects? That mech armour (what little of it we can see) looks awsome imho,I really like how its not overdesigned ala Bay's Transformers. I think its quite anime looking, and look s like the kind of thing Winston studios would do.
-
that Cameron is useing such extensive cgi for the numerous things (the Na'vi, the many alien creatures) that could not be done any other way. And he even developed a new way of doing mocap so that it could be more performance driven and photoreal because he was nt happy with how cgi has looked in many films i guess. This is why i dont see him making the mistakes that Lucas made, in fact I think he took note as to what worked and did nt work in the last few years ala LOTR, The prequal trilogy...
-
houston
-
but those character actors we love so much, when they disappear and resurface, makes you love them all the MORE!!!
-
Americans I meet here in Korea are from Texas. Useally El Paso, and Houston.
-
...AND DID SHE EVER GET THAT SCAR ON HER LEFT CHEEK PATCHED UP? THE ONE FROM WHEN CAMEROON BEAT HER SILLY AFTER RIDLEY SCOTT CALLED ALIENS A 2ND RATE GALAXY OF TERROR?
-
what do you do in korea? im in the oil industry. i know, im a whore.
-
actors. Im still wondering if Biehn has been cast in Avatar. We heard a lot from him about 2 years ago (meeting with Cameron, being shown the storyboards, fx tests etc..) but there has been no word whatsoever about him since then...Hope its true that he was cast, would be super cool imho...
-
guess you are a well paid whore lol. I teach English at a Korean University, and I teach English to Korean business people...
-
i respect that..both my parents are teachers..rock on
-
Michael Biehn was not cast in Avatar. He was up for the role of Col. Quaritch, but of course, he lost out to Stephen Lang (who's apparently a first rate theatre actor). A pity, but I'm sure Cameron'll cast him again somewhere down the road - perhaps as Ido in Battle Angel? or something else. And of course, he should work with Lance Henriksen, Bill Paxton, Jenette Goldstein, and Arnold (if he returns to movies that is) again. He definitely has his own repartee company of actors.It's also interesting that Biehn has been considered for a role in every Cameron movie. Of course, he did appear as a cameo in T2, but an earlier idea was that the T-1000 would look like Reese, thus reversing Arnold and Biehn's roles from the first movie. He was also considered for Tom Arnold's role as Arnie's side-kick in True Lies, and as Caledon Hockley in Titanic.
-
do in the oil industry?
-
impress me (fkn professional). Sorry to hear that, thats a pity imho. Hope Biehn might get cast in BAA or the Avatar sequals then...Would be awsome for Cameron to work with his company of actors again....I love it when awsome character actors that have been kinda forgotten get a kind of revival ala christopher Lee with LOTR and SW, or Leonard Nimoy with the new Trek and him voicing the Fallen in TF2...
-
....MADE BIEHN WATCH. A TOTAL CUCKHOLD, UH HUH. MMMM. HE TOLD BIEHN TO "GO SIT OVER IN THAT CHAIR AND WATCH WHILE JAMES CAMERON FUCKS YOUR WIFE."
I'M COMPLETELY SERIOUS.
PREVIOUSLY I REPORTED ABOUT HOW CAMEROON LOVES TO REFER TO HIMSELF IN THE 3RD PERSON WHEN EITHER FUCKING OR BEATING WHOMEVER HE'S LIVING WITH, AND THIS IS NO EXCEPTION.
RUMOUR HAS IT CAMEROON COULDN'T STOP WITH THE 3RD PERSON BAITING:
"MICHAEL, WATCH HOW JAMES CAMERON FUCKS YOUR WIFE."
"MICHAEL, ISN'T JAMES CAMERON'S COCK MASSIVE?"
"MICHAEL, CALL JAMES CAMERON SIR, GODDAMMIT."
"WATCH JAMES CAMERON STICK HIS THUMB UP YOUR LOVELY WIFE'S BUTTHOLE."
"NOW, WATCH JAMES CAMERON CUM."
THIS WENT ON AND ON. TRUE STORY, THAT. -
Looking at it only makes it stronger.
-
Praise you dude, you have actually gotten me interested in this movie. I am not drooling about it, but my interest is going up, I cannot deny it, I am a sci-fi geek LOL.
-
Im just as much of a sci-fi geek. Hence the reason for my excitement. Well then to wet your appetite more..have you seen Strange Days? Remember that awsome opening first person point of view sequence? Its rumoured that there will be a 12 minute pov set piece from an aliens perspective in Avatar.....
-
What's happening in this TB? LaserPants *still* going nuts over pple liking T2? Too bad he doesn't have Danny DB to back him up.
-
Or something. I very much remember an incident of some sort...
-
Scotsman did just conveniently disappear....
-
incident recorded anywhere, go ahead look. There is no such news story of any kind. Perhaps from a trashy tabloid mag then, and we all know how factual those are....I stand by what i ve said dude, if you want to accuse someone of something so heinous, then please provide some proof. otherwise you are nothing more than a sad little scumbag desperate to make a point in my book...
-
the same ol same ol shit. man his shctick is getting old.....And yeah he is a real little bitch when he has no-one to back his shit up....
-
oil industry in Texas, do you know that Cameron has had the oil rig Noble Clyde Bourdreaux in the gulf of Mexico completely photographed to be recreated with fx. Its being used as the design inspiration for the Consortium's base on the alien planet Pandora in Avatar. Which is called "Hells Gate" btw...(at least in the old scriptment anyway...)
-
No reason to insult me like that, man. That's just low. If I were someone else on these AICN talkbacks that would be the start of a flame war.
-
no i didnt know that about the rig. my wife actually works at Noble and i work at Schulumberger. im a mechanical engineer.
-
yeah laser's still going in circles. its pretty funny that NOW you can just sit back and watch him argue with himself. hes critisizing the film he's praising. laughable.i especially liked the part when he assumed to know me...wrong on all counts. and when you have to brag that you're going out with your "girlfriend for a drink" usually means drinking a box of wine on the couch watching scrambled porn...i should know. i was once 12 too.
-
That you must be below average intelligence to enjoy Terminator 2, and once you go there, you've pretty much lost the argument. I guess he feels he's already exhausted all his "real" reasons, but still, one you go into that territory, you're not coming back; you've lost.
-
Legend.
-
but seriously, where did this whole "fuck your eyeballs" thing come from? I've seen headlines and posts proclaiming said ocular intercourse for as long as I can remember coverage of Avatar. Are expectations really as stratopheric as they appear? Or did Harry employ this phrase in an early bout of hyperbole previewing the movie? The level of excitement and expectations of pupil pumping just seem so over-the-top for a movie nobody has seen much of. Is it pure sardonic wit, or are people really this geared up for Avatar? Inquiring minds want to know!
-
specifically my friend. I meant you in the general sense. Hope no offence was taken, as none was intended. And yeah d.vader...laser lost so long ago, and so badly it would be funny were it not for the fact that he's so oblivious to it that its just sad/pathetic...
-
but im not really a teacher, not by education anyway. To teach English in Asia you need to be an English native speaker, have a university degree (i majored in psychology and Sociology), and be TEFL certified. You aren t required to have any previous teaching experiance at all....I have become a type of teacher by accident dude. Here in Korea when you are teaching college kids and business people you are considered a foreign language instructor/expert lol...whatever that is...
-
laser is 12 years old, or at least i hope to God he is...otherwise thats just disturbing if he is an actual adult *shudder*..
-
bers? Personally I hate the whole eyeball fucking thing, its the kind of shit that can only crop up on this site. But it was invented here dude (by Harry i think) and certainly has nothing to do with anyone actually involved in making this movie. As for the second part of your question, yeas and no, many of us have read the old scriptment, and have followed up any info about this movie, thus we have a good reason to be excited about it. Then others just have a lot of faith in it based on Cameron's past track record etc...So many of us are very interested and excited about tis movie, but we are not all doing this overboard "eyeball fucking" bullshit...hope that helps dude.
-
rig? Any idea why it was chosen by Cameron as a reference point for the Colony on Pandora? Is it really high tech or something? Have you seen it?
-
I've also thought that about Jim too and hinted towards that on the boards :P... That other set photo was really well taken. There was a lot of action going on and the picture had really good use of space. That hidden Na'vi figure was interestingly in the center of the photo... as if to catch our attention. ;) Not that I mind... At least we get cool photos.
-
quite interesting was nt it? It seemed to hint that the Na'vi will be more dark/menacing looking than the old scriptment let on...I for hope so, I think they will need a really badass design to make the Na'vi work imho...
-
getting an audiance to buy into them will be one of their biggest challenges..
-
Motokugu Kusonagi(or whatever his name is) started it. The hype was building that Weta was breaking new ground and it was going to be a visual feast then he went on about our eyeballs being fucked due to the photoreal 3D that is supposed to be.
-
no man i wouldnt let her work on a rig. shes in human resources. i told her to check it out for any info.
-
anything about oil rigs. Sorry if there was any offence, I dont know if there are bad reasons for someone to have their wife on an oil rig.
-
no not really..i would just miss her waaay too much
-
same for me and my better half. Not married yet, but early next year...
-
did you see that shit about ALIEN? would love to hear your opinion about it over there.
-
check out marketsaw.com. They have got some real concept art from Avatar. Apparantly from the official concept art book thats coming...
-
WILL YOU FUCKING PONCES GO APE-SHIT AS WELL? FFS.
-
They're excited about this, but I guarante you if I were able to hack the site and rename one of the title pages something like "New shot from GOBOTS MOVIE" they would be all "LAME! PLANT! FAKE!" There's nothing exciting in those photos - they simply want to be excited by the No Weapons of Any Kind Event of PG-13 Summer! Just remember, everyone ... we live in a different era where T2 and movies like that COULD NEVER, EVER GET MADE.
