All this ho-ha hype..after seeing James "Avatar" sounded like stone age ppl seeing CGI for the first time.. so jakun..

C'mon wake up fella...its no longer a big deal with CGI nowaday... anything is possible in this century after the evolution of computer technologies... Thanks to George Lucas... the birth of special effects using computers which were scratch built, hand made model and background platform, the idea of using used future effects and all those idea of space ship, AT-AT walker.... all were all adapted from his idea and story, without him all just a dull movie.

The all time credit should be to George.... apparently most of the sc-fi film producer/creators were happened to evolved by George's Star Wars.

Talkin about big budget film of this century.. do not dare to compare with Star Wars... IMO in mankind history the biggest budget film ever made in human history is Star Wars and it was indeed the biggest achievement of film-making which open our mind to anything that beyond impossible is possible.

It will be a not big deal if Avatar will bag special effect award..its is nothing compare to what ILM had done with Star wars... so in conclusion AVATAR just a plain evolved CGI movie.. no big fuzz about it.

It amuses me to see the newspaper print quotes from this forum for promoting Avatar!! Lowyat.net posters are easily impressed... Any movie even a bad one like Transformers 2 is commented as "BEST MOVIE EVER!!" following by this icon  thumbup.gif .

Different people different taste, but Avatar is the one and only movie that I actually paid twice to watch in cinema. First in normal then 3D, some more with my wife and 2 kids.

Having watched 2D at GSC@1 Utama and 3D at Cathay@Cineleisure, I felt that the sound system of GSC was much superior to Cathay.

This is technically the best blu-ray ever. Definitely reference disc. Everybody who at least likes this movie should upgrade to BLU now if you haven't already. The most beautiful, sharpest, detailed, outstanding picture quality I've ever seen, and believe me I've seen a lot. The shot in space with the space station is now my Windows logon wallpaper. Amazing. drool.gif

So how... anyone watched the "Special Version"?

Heard there is like additional few seconds every 15 minutes of scenes... total of approx. 15-18 minutes additional time.
*
it's only 8 minutes,not 15.

im just gonna wait for the BD since it reportedly has 40 minutes of extra footage and is just around the corner

BD is 7 on top of the 8 making it 15. The remaining minutes you heard I think are incomplete (without effects).
