i would say first time normal

i would say nothing much of 3d effects (3d mode) compare to the normal screening.
except the scenes at night, where all the glows seems real.

How much is the cost for the 3D?

if im not mistaken its cos they wanted to gain their trust so that they would move out of their home, and they use avatar instead of human form probably cos its easier to move around pandora in avatar form, and also it wopuld be easier to communicate with the na'vi if they looked like them.

Yay! Watching Avatar again tmoro... but it will be in 2D (first view in 3D). Instead of GSC, it will be TGV.

TGV got combo cup and popcorn! Yay...

it seems that you dont really pay attention to this movie. There's a part in the movie where its already answer your question. They create many Avatar just because they would like to get into the Na'vi family and become part of the family. When they become part of the family , they are call as brother and sister where they trust each other. The real reason for them to be part of the family so that the sky people could pursuade them to leave hometree and tell them an attack will happen if they do not move. This is because they are tie to a bond when they become a family.


buy it.. rm 9.90 oni.. glow in the dark cup..

Even so, something like that is kinda predictable. Avatar isn't the best I've seen yet but I'd rather not have it turn like Transformers.

just watch it yesterday!! and i found it great...

i didnt particularly like sci-fi movie, but at least avatar had made me watch it till the very end...

i supposed it is a bit like pocahontas but this is not the romance type of movie...

for those who havent watch this, is a must to watch..

check it out here.... http://blog.701panduan.com/2009/12/23/avatar-movie-review/

agree with u, avatar is quite predictable, unlike district 9, lots of suprise

watch the movie last night, and it was GREAT!...the movie is so great, that i feel as if pandora is real...haha

I would be frankly here..I actually enjoyed District 9 more than the Avatar but I won't deny that Avatar's visual is superb and beautiful.

AVATAR is the greatest movie of the year 2009
the animated effect is so real~ the landscape of Na'vi place..and the story is great
the movie is full with excitement,I SALUTE U. James Cameron

coz u didn't watch properly.

Jake Sully was send to study and persuade the 'locals' about the mining. Later he finally find out the answer, the bad guy found his video log. The answer is impossible ... no way to persuade. If today there's an alien come to earth and ask politely can I destroy your planet, will you smile and say please proceed?

Jake found out mining in that place will only mean destroy that planet. How to persuade ppl to let their mother planet die?

Watched the movie again today (12.10pm show TGV, normal). Didn't even feel like it was 2 hours 45 minutes ! It was so much more faster...

The 3D is definitely much more sharper than the normal version, obviously. I feel the experience of 3D/non-3D is comparably the same, though 3D is definitely more worth it.

Just back from watching Avatar.

@defaultname365,
What is the diffrence betwwen #D and non other than the sharpness? Actually want to watch 3d but ticket sold out and I afraid will good headache after that. But if the difference is big, probably will try to watch it.

The difference is that 3D makes it more immersive. It's like you're not just watching a movie, you're entering a whole new world. If you watch 2D, you'll probably feel the movie's weaknesses more - predictable plot, draggy pace, cliches and stereotypes, etc.

If we talk about story, yup... I agree, it very predictable. Example when the story revealed about how the spirit tree can transfer human conscience into Na'vi body, I bet all audience can predict that at the end Jack will follow the same ritual. Another thing is about the Torak Ma.. (forgot the name).

But for it CGI, really... 10/10. Like Jack, I even don't know which one is real.

Draggy pace? Don't think so because I totally unaware about the the time.

did tgv done any major cuts to the movie?

plus in digital 3d, you won't get any visual tearing, lines and etc from the conventional 35mm film

I didn't notice any cuts.
