If you can't wait for the IMAX AVATAR footage or trailer...

Published at:  Aug 19, 2009 3:37:30 AM CDT

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I know there's a fervor out there for this neat-o IMAX AVATAR presentation going on in theaters all across the country Friday. The AVATAR trailer is also supposed to hit soon and since we're still a couple of days out at the very least I find it amusing that this trailer is out already.

Now I've seen the Comic-Con footage and this trailer seems to be using earlier renders than what was shown in San Diego. What do you folks think?













Gotcha!

If you got tickets to the AVATAR day and feel the need to voice your opinion for good, bad or any point in-between feel free to email in your thoughts to this email address. We'll make sure there's a dedicated talkback and a forum for you guys out there to discuss this IMAX footage being shown to the masses.

    It's a Fox film and as I've not paid to see a Fox film in over 6 years for reasons that are beyond obvious, I'm not treating this one any differently. You guys go watch it if you want. I just hope Rothmans and Murdochs jism tastes nice for you as you suck their corperate nutsack dry and ask them for a reach around while they fuck you up the arse.

    by gimmeabreak

    Got this from 20th Century Fox about 20 minutes ago:
    "We apologize for the inconvenience, but due to overwhelming demand to see the special scenes from James Cameron’s epic motion picture AVATAR, our AVATARMOVIES.COM RSVP site experienced technical difficulties. As a result of the crash you must re-select a screening time. Please note you may not get the original time you selected. Also new ticket confirmations that will be generated by your selection here will be the only accepted form of admittance."

    I clicked their link and got right back into the one I originally signed up for but hopefully this doesn't screw anyone over.

    TRAILER DESCRIPTION HERE

    by theplant

    Shots of planet, then James Cameron appears on the screen "Hi, I'm James Cameron, director of Titanic, Aliens, Abyss and T2. I really wanted Avatar day to be great for everyone, but I was saddenned to see an idiot called QUINT from AICN website posting fake trailers. So I decided that all you geeks were not worth it, because it's clear by now if AICN shit on me, that you really are not worth licking my soles. So go fuck yourself, you won't see any image until December 21, thanks to Quint. Bye Bye".

    The IMAX here in Norn Iron only played bloody kids films, went with my 2 wee cousins to some shite and all the kids in it were too busy spasing out on sugar to even notice the film!......This what does my head in, Cameron is telling everyone how you have to see it in an IMAX, 3-D, Super-Duper big ass Corporate Cinema. First thing, not everyone is lucky enough to have one on their doorstep, and 2nd, I still like going to my local Fleapit to see new films. OK, it might not have 3-D screen or whatever new gimmick they are currently peddling, but the sound in it makes the whole place reverberates and has got character by the bucket load. This is why Cameron and Lucas are wrong to say that 3-D, IMAX is the way of the future and only in those cinemas will their films be played. Studios will never allow them to do this as they want the films played in as many cinemas as possible, irrelevant of what technology they have.

    ...will out gross Avatar this Christmas period?

    Harry Potter will be the highest grossing film released in 2009 that is for sure. Box office numbers do not mean quality, and I just hope that Avatar is of a high quality in terms of story, script, acting, effects- the whole thing- the films that changed the face of cinema (Star Wars, Jurassic Park etc) were surrounded by lots of hype and big event movies- but the hyperbole did not underline that they would change things forever. This is the pressure on that film, and they should never have gone in that direction in the first place...

    From someone who's seen a little

    by soupdragon

    I saw seven minutes at the London Moviecon last Sunday. Two scenes, One with Stephen Lang giving his troops a pep talk and the other with Jake, in his Avatar form, running from a rhino type beast.

    Bottom Line: They've produced some very, very good cgi, but it is still noticably animated. If they'd told us it was a Pixar film that starred a bunch of blue cats I would have believed them. So, on the strength of this footage, photorealism is still a way off. Set your expecatations just a little lower.

    For those of you who got your confirmation e-mails to the Avatar Day Preview! Check your emial inboxes NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I received an e-mail from FOX stating the following:

    "We apologize for the inconvenience, but due to overwhelming demand to see the special scenes from James Cameron’s epic motion picture AVATAR, our AVATARMOVIES.COM RSVP site experienced technical difficulties. As a result of the crash you must re-select a screening time. Please note you may not get the original time you selected. Also new ticket confirmations that will be generated by your selection here will be the only accepted form of admittance. Please click below and choose a new screening time."

    So I did and was taken to a screen to reselect my scheduled time. I noticed taht at my IMAX, the show I was scheduled for at 7:15 was still there and reselected it. But the 6 O'Clock show was cancelled, and there were 2 new times added both at 8 O'Clock!

    I RSVP'd back to fox and got a new email immediatedly with a new confirmation number with the statement:

    ******************************************************************************
    Please discard any previous confirmation letters as they are no longer valid.
    ******************************************************************************

    This happened just a minute ago! The site warns that some e-mail confirmations will take up to 2 hours if you do this when there's a lot of traffic on their system.

    One more time! Regarding selling tics.

    by jaka

    If you got two tickets you have one to sell. If a friend got two tickets to the same showing then together you would have two tickets to sell. Tickets to multiple showings, etc. etc. etc. It's very easy to get around the photo ID requirement if you really want to sell the tickets. You escort them in and say "have a nice time, see you never". But I do wonder if ebay will offer their usual buyers protection for something like this? Was there a legal disclaimer anywhere along the line during the first ticket getting process? Or rather, did anybody read it? If there was one and it said tickets were non-transferable and/or not to be sold it's possible that some unscrupulous folks could sell their second set of tickets without repercussion. More good times with Avatar! lol

    by cruzboy

    ..so yeah, I cracked up! :0)

    Seriously though if that trailer was a movie, I'd go see it... looks like South Park crossed with Avatar. I kept expecting Terrence and Phillip to walk out at any moment.

    Some of you fuckers need to chill out...

    by pdennett316

    Really, how can anyone take any offence at a stupid little throwaway joke to announce something else entirely???
    "But it was on other sitez first LoL!! AICN is so behind the times, fuck you Harry" etc.... Guess what fuck holes, not everyone spends every minute of every day surfing every other movie site and typing LATEST AVATAR NEWS into Google every five fucking minutes!
    Not that I'm not a fat nerd, but even I have other things to do besides that shit. Chill out, put some lotion on your hurt butts, and fuck off to CHUD or whatever other fucking site is SOOOOO ahead of the curve, and stop being such fucking whining misers ya cunts!

    jesus that was funny

    by murdermostfowl

    I didn't bother reading any TB comments before launching and boy am I glad. I totally bought it ( even though I was being critical of the shiitty titles at the beginning in my head... I thought I was critiquing the real trailer)

    bravo

    it didnt fool me...

    by bouncy x

    when there wasn't any logo or mention of a studio or production company i figured something was up but it was funny nonetheless. i like how they added "shaky cam" to the gun firing at the end.

    Wouldn't it be awesome...

    by docpazuzu

    ...if when Avatar finally rolls across the screens in December, it turns out to be the biggest rick roll ever? Hundreds of thousands of people sitting in theaters around the world with funny glasses on watching a gigantic 3D Rick Astley.

    "Never gonna give you uuuup, never gonna let you dooowwwwn..."

    That would be the greatest thing ever.

    Wait... I just saw Avatar trailer before D9

    by sk229

    I'm confused... I haven't been on here in a while, so I just assumed the Avatar trailer was playing before all copies of D9. Is that true? Because I just saw the trailer at the Pacific Beach All Cities Stadium 16 (long name, I know) in El Segundo, CA. I thought it looked absolutely fucking beautiful and amazing and they showed A LOT of footage. If that indeed was some weird sneak peek that nobody is aware of yet, then i would have taken fucking notes and sent in a scoop!

    Avatar 3D trailer hits

    by brownrecluse01

    Sometimes working at the theater has its perks. Today we received our digital copy of the 3D Avatar trailer.

    Glorious.

    I ran it several times tonight. First thing that hits you is how great the 3D is. Most trailer 3D kinda sucks, makes your eyes hurt a little. Not this one. Perfect. 3D. Awesomeness.

    Best I can recall:
    We see shots of Sam Worthington descending to the planet in a space shuttle. Sam disembarking in a wheelchair, wearing a breather. All the humans are wearing breathers.
    A soldier in an exoskeleton suit rather like Sigourney Weaver's power lifter in Aliens, but this one has guns.
    Sam meets the alien he'll soon inhabit.
    Sam hooked up to machines that will transfer his mind into the alien avatar.
    Sam as the alien getting up off the hospital table, says "This is great!"
    Some shots of the planet with the floating rock formations. Don't get to see any of the bioluminescence.
    Alien Sam being rescued by a female native. She's using a bow and arrow against a giant version of that green thing Obi Wan rode in Ep. II.
    Humans in air combat /w natives riding terodactyls. One of the terodactyls bites a human soldier and pulls him from his ship's gunbay.
    Alien Sam presses his forehead to the native female's head.
    Dec 13 2009

    Can't wait. Trailers are set to be attached to X-Games 3D and Inglorious Basterds.

    no matter how good the trailer is...

    by quamb

    AICN talkback will be about:
    a) CG looks like crap.
    b) It looks shit.
    c) It's gonna flop.
    d) Stupid posts like this one trying to make sense of this hate filled place.
