Non-disclosure agreement, guys. It's like the Dr Who threads - I just have to sit on my hands, shaking my head slowly.
Everything everyone has said upthread is factually correct.

(xxx = I'm probably not even allowed to say how long it is).

I would just like to point out that this question was posted before MJones's penultimate post:
is it a triumph in high-tech nipple obfuscation
so I am assuming the answer is an emphatic "YES"

Actually, not being able to contribute to this thread in any substantial way has been nothing like as excruciating as last summer's The Happening thread. Oh, boy. I really was bursting to tell people about that.

So it doesn't suck but isn't very good.

i'm download this because floating rocks and blue tits look better at low bitrate - more left to the imagination. hopefully i'll find a foreign language version with english subtitles to really enhance the magic.

'You have officially been to your last Con in which blue people, spoken Navi and the word "hometree" were absent.'
This is extremely useful because it clearly demarcate who will want to see this movie.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 10 December 2009 23:30 (fourteen years ago) link
The near-impossibility of faithfully bootlegging a 3D polarized movie must have been a huge selling point for the movie execs.

I hope 'hometree' is Avatar's attempt at inventing hipster slang.
