Could There Be an “Avatar” Sequel?
James Cameron isn’t ruling out a sequel to his highly popular Avatar. Are you surprised? I’m not! The only reason he didn’t milk Titanic for more was because the boat sink – where can you go from there?
In an interview with CNN, Cameron said: “We might be persuaded. We’ll have to see how much money the movie makes first.”
He also seemed a little surprised by how well the film has done. “And that’s not some sort of false humility. We… More »
Will 3-D Television Be In Your Living Room
The talk about 3-D television making it to your living room has been making it into more mainstream discussion lately. My original thoughts were that there was no way the majority of consumers would be interested in sitting in their living rooms wearing glasses to enjoy watching television in 3-D.
I experienced something this weekend that has changed my perspective a little bit on the potential success of 3-D television in your living room. I watched “Avatar” in IMAX 3-D and… More »
My Belated Thoughts on Avatar
I finally did it. I contributed my $15 to the $500 billion that’s already been pulled in from the movie. My investment was well worth the $15 I spent to see James Cameron’s latest sci-fi adventure in all its glory with the help of IMAX and 3-D projection.
It took me awhile to finally get into the theater and enjoy the movie. I went to see it twice and both times it was sold-out in the showing I hoped to view…. More »
“Avatar” Wins Two Golden Globes
In what was a repeat of James Cameron’s success 12 years ago with Titanic, his newest film, Avatar, took home the Golden Globe awards for “Best Drama” and “Best Direction.” Could he be poised to take home some Oscars next month? It’s looking more and more possible.
The blockbuster has been dominating the box office for weeks and I personally know at least one person who has gone back to see it more than once. I haven’t seen it yet but… More »
My First Movies to See in 2010
I’ve been so busy the last few months that I haven’t really seen many movies that I’d like to see that have already come out and are working their way out of the theaters. We have a local Kerasotes theater here and their $5 Club is when we try to take advantage of current movies in the theaters.
I’m not sure if it’s going to happen, but I’d love to do what I did when I was single and spend the… More »
“Avatar” Hits Theaters This Weekend
One of the most highly anticipated movies of the year has been released in theaters. Avatar is now playing at basically every cinema in North America. James Cameron is behind this film so you know it’s going to be over-the-top when you consider how much effort he put into Titanic and Terminator.
Avatar tells the story an ex-Marine who awakens on an alien planet filled with exotic life forms. “As an Avatar, a human mind in an alien body, he finds… More »

James Cameron’s Avatar is one of the most highly anticipated films of this year and now you can pick up a copy of the game ahead of the movie’s December 18th release date. The storyline unfolds on the planet Pandora as a devastating conflict breaks out between two very different groups of people.

New “Avatar” Production Stills
More production stills from James Cameron’s highly-anticipated film, Avatar, have surfaced and they really do look pretty freakin’ cool. I will admit to not being totally on-board with the whole furor over this flick but the more I learn about it, the better it looks.
The 3-D film is set to hit theaters and IMAX on December 18, 2009. Up close and on their own, the CGI figures don’t look so realistic but that one shot of the female in a… More »
Panasonic teams with James Cameron’s Avatar
You may have heard of this little mega-budget blockbuster called Avatar (due in theaters this December), which is director James Cameron’s first film since Titanic.

Panasonic will show Avatar footage in Full HD 3D at multiple events, to give consumers a taste of what’s possible with modern 3D technology.
Among Panasonic and Fox’s intentions are plans… More »
Comic-Con ’09: Avatar panel
For the true geeks among us, there could be no bigger event at Comic-Con than uber-director James Cameron showing up to promote his shrouded-in-secrecy new project, Avatar. Not a single frame of footage, not one rendering or piece of concept art has been shown from the film. Until today.
Cameron chose Comic-Con 2009 as the venue at which to unveil Avatar to the world, and he did not disappoint, delivering an in-depth preview of the film that stacked up at about… More »
New “Avatar” Screenshots
James Cameron’s newest movie, Avatar, won’t be released in theaters until December 18, 2009 but some screenshots from the official video game of the same name have started surfacing on the internet.
The film, starring Sigourney Weaver and Sam Worthington, is about a “band of humans are pitted in a battle against a distant planet’s indigenous population.” I’m going to assume that the game, which is being developed by Ubisoft, will be based on a revised version of this plot.
