Merrick here...
60 MINUTES featured a 12 minute(ish) report on AVATAR last night. CBS has been kind enough to provide the piece for all to see via miraculous embed. I haven't watched this yet, so I can't vouch for its coolness. Here ya go...

Hey folks, Harry here having just returned from the gloriousness of Werner Herzog's BAD LT... and I'm giddy. Crazy movies like that are way too few and far between... That said, I come home to a new look at the HUMAN TECH of AVATAR featurette... and yeah we all need to see this movie now. Oh - and watch out at your local theaters - there's roving gangs of women laying siege. Tis crazy out there...

A four minute (ish) sequence from AVATAR has been posted over at Marketsaw.
This footage appears to be captured from an XBOX 360 playback of some sort (is this clip available through XBOX Live overseas, maybe? Looks like...) It's filmed off of a TV screen, which is hardly the best presentation for any footage. This said, the quality here isn't altogether bad.

Greetings! ScoreKeeper here with some information regarding the score release of a little independent film that you may not have heard of called AVATAR (2009). You see, this guy named James Horner did the music. He did something else once but I can't quite recall what it was.
Anyway, his music for AVATAR will be released soon and ComingSoon.net posted all the gory details:

Hey folks, Harry here and I haven't posted the last several AVATAR link style stories so I haven't really had a chance to ring in with my take on all of this. The coolest new thing that I'm seeing in the recent spate of Trailers and TV spots - have been the paint on the Na'vi faces. Then in this latest spot, there's a shot of Jake's Avatar - waking up with dirt on his face - and man... it is this stuff that looks so damn good to me. The shot of our two love-aliens swimming together... Man.

There's a 3 minute (+) trailer for AVATAR hitting theaters today; it won't be online officially until next week. Except: it's already escaped onto the Internet, where it can now be seen in inglorious mud-o-vision.

Greetings! ScoreKeeper here revving up the hype machine with a brief article regarding James Horner’s “hugely cinematic” score for James Cameron’s upcoming 3D sci-fi saga, AVATAR (2009).

Merrick here...
The folks over at Spoiler TV have some high res images from AVATAR. We've seen many (if not all) of these pics before - although I don't believe they've been made available to us in this size and clarity yet.

A rather impressive AVATAR-related viral site has now fully launched. It's called AVTR.com (HERE). Looks like it'll be a pretty good introduction to the "universe" of the film.

Empire has an article about AVATAR featuring a few images we haven't seen yet - notably Sigourney Weaver's Na'vi Avatar in the film. I believe this was in the recent AVATAR Day footage - but since I couldn't see it... because it wasn't playing here..a humiliating emasculation of my Geekiness...
Said images have no gone online over at MarketSaw.

Merrick once more...
Apple seems to have resolved their issues. The AVATAR trailer is (easily and actually) available in all kinds of Glorious QuickTime...

Merrick again, again...
If you're getting boned at Apple, the French version of the trailer can be found...

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. And you guys were worried about there being no publicity surrounding AVATAR. I have a feeling this week's cannonball of publicity isn't going to let up until December. You're not going to be able to turn on the TV, drive down the street, read a website or flip through a magazine without being bombarded with AVATAR goodies. Just you wait and see.
The below six production stills were just released and mainly feature our human characters, with one notable exception... Check 'em out below:

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a spy report on the three big trailers premiering this week. If I'm not mistaken AVATAR hits the nets in a few hours, but if you're itchy to know what you're in for we got a written preview that includes bonus looks at INCEPTION and THE WOLF MAN.
Without further ado, here's our spy's take on the trailers!

A few weeks ago we learned of James Cameron's plans to hold free screenings of AVATAR footage in IMAX theaters across the country. Even though this event is free, tickets are still be needed to get into these screenings - Fox & Co. have now released further details regarding where and when to nab tickets to the 16 minute preview.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with one of the biggie interviews I was lucky enough to snag at this year’s Comic-Con. I had gotten the chance to interview James Cameron back in 2006 right before he announced what his Project 880 was and I tried to keep my geek in check as best I could. Read that here if you missed it.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. After a long, long, long, long, long day, I kicked up my feet and tried to catch up on the massive Warner Bros Panel article while sitting at the back of Hall H during James Cameron and Peter Jackson’s panel…
And then they decided to fuck that up for me as they talked about really interesting things.
Sure, the bulk of it is talk about old tech vs. new and how great 3-D is, but I kept getting distracted by these two giants.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. My battery died right after I posted my thoughts on the AVATAR footage, so I didn't get to include this bit of news.
We're not the only lucky sumbitches to get to see footage. Cameron, Fox and Lightstorm are going to overtake as many IMAX screens as they can (both digital and film IMAXs) on August 21st (just 8 days off of Judgment day... yeah, I'm a dork) to show 15 minutes of the film... in 3D... for free.
Details are slim, but save the date. It's supposed to be all across the country. Now you know!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with my thoughts on the big one of this year’s Comic-Con.
James Cameron showed over 20 minutes of select scenes from AVATAR in 3-D to a massive crowd in Hall H. I’m going to try to recap as much as I can on the fly.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with some pics of the completed floor during this hellish preview night. I say hellish with the most love possible. I’ve heard a lot of bitching from even the average con attendees (not just the press and professionals) about how not fun this Con is anymore and I don’t want to be one of those guys.
