Guest Mirezzi Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) That trailer looked like the trailer to Halo 8: The New Beginning. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Well, I for one knew nothing about the hype, but if this is supposed to represent animation seamlessly combining with live action, it falls way short of the mark. I can't imagine the colors being more garish.

karmakramer Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 I honestly would be somewhat okay with this movie flopping at the box office. No lines to deal with, more space for me and my bros to pass a joint in the back of the theater... but knowing Cameron every god damn person in this thread will see this movie and they will on some level enjoy it. He's yet to make a flop and this one looks to be some of his best shit yet imo.

zazen Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 As I started this thread, and saw some Avatar footage today, I'll quote myself from the other thread: On 8/22/2009 at 2:03 AM, zazen said: I think Cameron guessed that the trailer would not get across what is impressive about this film, which is why they have scheduled 15-min previews of 3-D footage at various Imax theaters all over the world today. I went to see one of the previews in London. I can confirm that the trailer does not do this film justice. When you see proper, extended scenes with the Na'Vi characters conversing with each other and interacting with the environment it is very believeable. The look in the Sigourney-Weaver-Avatar's eyes when she warns Sam Worthington's Avatar to run, the moves that Zoe Zaldana's Avatar makes when she tackles a pack of dog-like creatures, the scenes where Sam and Zoe talk to each other - they are very impressive. And thats without going into the other flaura and fauna that crop up. The scene where Sam(Jake) and a tribe of Na'vi come through a waterfall to a pack of dragon creatures on a cliffside is amazing. So much detail and movement. And the 3-D was amazing as well, very crisp and precise, so clear and artifact-free that within 20 seconds you are just in the scenes, and not thinking about the 3-D aspects at all, just experiencing them. Its not quite perfect. Perhaps 5% of the time, you can see that you are watching a CGI creature. But 95% of it is perfectly done, you believe that you're watching a 10-foot high blue alien, channelling the brain waves of Sam Worthington or Sigourney Weaver. And I think that 95% will be enough to make watching the whole film an amazing experience. There have been fantastic levels of hype around this movie, and it wont be able to live up to all of it, but it definately does raise the CGI bar, especially in terms of expression and movement.

Rubin Farr Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 probably the best thing about this trailer is that, knowing Cameron, he always tries to top himself so Battle Angel Alita will have perfected the CGI reality and 3D advancements he is going for with Avatar. add to that the rumor he wants old man Harrison Ford to play Dr. Ido, and Alita will be the first all CG lead character in a live action film, and hopefully 5 years from now we will be reaping the rewards of that.
