it looks like they are in the big womb things that keanu wakes up in during teh matrix

hate this movie solely for ruining my ability to appreciate this shade of blue ever again

Future bargain bin finds xp

So is the audience meant to take the side of nine foot tall furries over humans?

Let's see, it's been 24 hours, there should be a slew of stupid new quotes and behold:

Cameron, whose filmmaking has always been notable for its technological innovations, explained it simply: “I basically sat down and put everything in this that I ever wanted to see in a movie – and that’s why it’s such a grab-bag of visual concepts.”

With a cup of coffee in hand and looking relaxed and in a pair of jeans and casual shirt, he was talking in his private projection room after screening 30 minutes of Avatar to a small invited group. It is impossible not to be fascinated and enthralled by his action-filled 3D vision of adventure and battles in an iridescent jungle on an alien planet, where hideous, dragon-like creatures appear to leap off the screen, flora and fauna wave in the air and a heroic avatar does battle with a pterodactyl-like beast before subduing it and soaring off on its back.

“It came from all the science-fiction books I read when I was a kid and it just gestated over time,” he said. “I did a lot of fantasy art and I had drawers full of drawings of creatures, characters, robots, spaceships and all that sort of thing. So for me I was just going back to my roots.”

And what's today, kids?!?!

The time is here folks. Stop reading and proceed directly to the MTV Movies home page. Why? Don't you know by now?!!?!?!? "Avatar" director James Cameron, along with stars Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana are answering questions from fans -- submitted on MTV.com or via the Facebook event page -- about the movie in a special MTV live stream event.

What are you still doing here? Go watch (starting at 3pm EST/12pm PST)!!

“Yes,” Cameron said flatly. “They have to have tails.”

for someone whos hair is on fire, she doesn't seem fazed. she does have boobs tho

Oh wait, another one from that first link:

“We’re telling the story of what happens when a technologically superior culture comes into a place with a technologically inferior indigenous culture and there are resources there that they want,” said Cameron. “It never ends well.

“It’s also a love story about an awakening of perception through the other person. That person must teach him something and there has to be a greater reason for him to be in love with her other than she’s a hot blue alien chick.”

I hope this means an introductory scene where they tell Sam Worthington's character they picked him because of his hot blue chick fetish.

If you have such an unfortunate fetish, this movie must be a godsend. "Finally, something for ME."

Results 1 - 10 of about 2,390,000 for smurf fetish. (0.55 seconds)

oh god no

Hey, we had the corner on blue-skin fetishes first!

bonus points to whoever can rustle up the first porn cartoons of these smug blue motherfuckers

Based on that quote from Cameron, he already did those cartoons when he was 15.

andorians?

The more you know... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andorian

In the Deep Space Nine relaunch novels, four-person Andorian marriages were extrapolated into four sexes--the two roughly male thaan and chan, and the two female-like shen and zhen. The novels imply that the rarity of compatible foursomes produced extremely low reproduction rates which, in tandem with genetic weaknesses, led to the species' near extinction.

"That person must teach him something and there has to be a greater reason for him to be in love with her other than she’s a hot blue alien chick"

You are one sick puppy, Mr. Cameron.

Is there really a race of blue people?

You think for the amount of money Cameron has to play with he could afford something a bit nicer than a friggin' Behringer Eurorack mixer.

Sigourney doesn't look all that into 3d smurfs.

A clip of Sigourney and Giovanni that will make your brain bleed:

omg i want this to fail so badly
i normally don't have these feelings
but i'm going to say i want this to fail
that clip is so bad

so you can pick up unobtainium, but you can't sit it on a desk, it has to hover on a special levitation coaster?

and who the fuck calls them oral hygienists? Isn't the term dental hygienist?

Or is it different in the FUTURE?

really can't get over him saying 'unobtainium' with a straight face

omg i want this to fail so badly
i normally don't have these feelings
but i'm going to say i want this to fail

^^ this! I have been actively wishing for this film's complete crash and burn ever since I saw the first trailer, and the feeling only gets stronger every day.

unobtainium

People have been gunning so hard for this to fail that it almost makes me want to see it succeed.

But then I glance back at those screen shots and I'm all "fuck this shit"

“It came from all the science-fiction books I read when I was a kid and it just gestated over time,” he said. “I did a lot of fantasy art and I had drawers full of drawings of creatures, characters, robots, spaceships and all that sort of thing. So for me I was just going back to my roots.”

To be fair that is EXACTLY what this movie looks like: a bored 6th grade kid's notebook doodlings.

I seriously want someone to ask Cameron about the unobtainium hover coasters, since every element of this film is so painstakingly reasoned and all.

Why did the aliens all go to the English language school if they don't get on with the humans?

why did indians go to the English language school if they didn't like the colonialists?

this is just gonna be a hardcore cliché snoozefest once i stop laffing at how bad it is (in 10 years time when it is telly, as i will refuse to pay to see it)

it's been dubbed obviously

avatat

SPOILERS, if anyone cares

Over time, Jake integrates himself into the Na'vi clan, and begins to fall in love with Neytiri. As a result, Jake finds himself caught between the military-industrial forces of Earth and the Na’vi, forcing him to choose sides in an epic battle that will decide the fate of Pandora and the Na'vi.

Which side will he choose, I REALLY CANNOT GUESS.

his best friend is a talking pie

wow there are some moments in that clip that almost reach dr. tongue levels of 3d-shown-in-2d posing

when he held up the rock i was sure he'd start waving it back and forth

when the audience stands up and starts throwing toast at the midnight showings of this, you gonna be sorry you dissed it.

They're more likely to initiate furry sex.

The pelvic thrust really will drive them insane...

*throws toast*

unobtainium

x-post -- Terrible euphemism.

I just feel that needs repeating every ten post or so. Unobtainium - get some if you can.
