I like this featurette because it tells about the human side of Avatar. The movie keeps getting better and better.

I am excited about this movie, the visuals are breathtaking. I want to swim in the crystal clear water of Pandora!
Even though we see the same type of footage of the movie, without details about the process of operating the Avatar, I am still fascinated. I am curious how the Avatars work and if there are any limitations or dangers while operating one of the Avatars. Whatever the limitations and dangers are will add to the suspense of the story and make it even more thrilling to see.
I can’t wait. This is going to be a great movie.

So okay, it’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that, assuming the Earth doesn’t crash into the sun or something first, that there will be a sequel to James Cameron’s upcoming blockbuster Avatar.
And in order to stage Avatar 2, there’s whispers afoot that it may actually go out past the planet of Pandora and into other targets. Check out this advance quote:
“What would you think if I told you that should a sequel to AVATAR happen, it might not even take place on Pandora? It’s all up the air as of now. But remember I’m telling you this. Pandora is not the be all and end all of the Consortium.”
Well, you know, everyone said G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra was going to be a monster hit too, but as of the weekend of October 18th, it STILL hasn’t made its shooting budget back yet that I can tell, despite having made nearly a hundred and fifty million bucks at the domestic box office.
I wonder if that won’t happen here too….

Dana Goodyear wrote an astounding 12-page article for the October 26, 2009 issue of The New Yorker, in which she goes on the set of James Cameron’s Avatar for an early look at the 3-D world that Cameron has created for the upcoming movie.
Goodyear’s article is more than about Avatar. It’s about Cameron and his moviemaking boldness and assertiveness that brings light to an artist’s desire to be the best he can be in film.
The director of Aliens, Terminator and Terminator 2 and Titanic, he’s also a writer and producer. “Maverick” best describes the filmmaker — place him next to Walt Disney, Stanley Kubrick or Charlie Chaplin — all visionaries of the future.
Click on Cameron and you’ll be at the article. Enjoy — it’s quite a read!

Fantastic Fest saw more footage of Avatar and six high-resolution production photos became available at Spoilers TV-Movies.
Of course, this photo is without special effects, but I thought you’d like to see how everyone looks when they are normal. For more fantasy-science fiction photos click on Sigourney Weaver.

October issue of Empire features James Cameron’s 3D epic Avatar. Two more pictures from film are available online. The first picture shows the movie’s villain, Stephen Lang’s tough-as-nails and literally battle-scarred Col. Miles Quaritch, piloting a human battleship known as the Dragon. The second picture shows Sigourney Weaver in her human guise as Dr. Grace Augustine, a human scientist who works with Sam Worthington’s Jake Sully on the alien planet of Pandora. If you’ve seen the trailer or the preview at IMAX theaters, you know this is probably one of the most anticipated films this year. I am sure we will hear more about Avatar before its December 18, 2009 release date.
