Look like Avatar will be back in theatres on Aug 27th with around 8 minutes of extra footage.

TOTALLY WORTH IT right?

No, I think not. (Then again I still haven't seen it...and probably won't even on this scenario.)

8 minutes? Not worth it. All it's going to be is extra filler material, nothing important.

This is going to rake in millions of dollars, and that's completely ridiculous.

But what's more ridiculous: re-releasing the movie or the people who go out and see it again in theaters?

The first time I saw it, was in 3D and I got motion sickness. So half the time I was either without the glasses or looking away from the screen.

Awesome, this will be my chance to finally see it. I missed out on it the first time because of being away at college.


Oh wait, I'm still away at college.

Nothing wrong with this, especially if it's 3D again. I enjoyed the experience and I'd be willing to watch it again, especially since it's been a while and now I've forgotten how the story goes

Was it Imax 3d or RealD 3D? I saw it both and wasn't effected, but I heard that RealD (the newer kind) doesn't pop out as much and causes less motion sickness.

Anway, I will be there. If it were more than 1 day, I would see it again. Its just a 1 day re-release but I'm sure it will rake in at least another $50,000,000 to $100,000,000 from that one day.

Edit: Its for 2 weeks, I misread a different article.

If there was nothing else for me to go watch I might see it in 3D (I saw it in 2D the first time).
However, I've still yet to see Toy Story 3, so unfortunately for Mr. Cameron I won't be forking over my cash again.

There is always stuff that they want but nevertheless doesn't make it into the theatrical cut for one reason or another. Hence why there were so many Director's Cut versions of movies back in the 90s, or "Unrated Versions" now.

Movie was okay. Don't really want to spend money on watching it again, it wasn't that good.

I think this is good for people who missed it the first time around, but yeah I won't be seeing it again. I've already seen it in 3D twice, and really, twice is enough to get everything in it. 8 extra minutes of fluff isn't enough to make me fork out my money again this soon. Maybe if it was many years down the road when I've forgotten everything in it. The sequels though I will be seeing day one! I loved this thing.

I have not seen the movie yet, however, my hopes are not that great even with an extra 8 minutes...

Also, for some reason, I always think of the picture below when someone mentions the movie version.

Wrong 'Avatar' movie.

They called 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' just 'The Last Airbender' in theaters.

Thread is about the overrated Cameron movie 'Avatar'.

Edit: Unless you are joking. Then kudos to you Double D.

I'll probably go because I didn't get a chance to see it in 3D the first time.

I was a skeptic but I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I might go see it in theaters if it comes to mine, my monitor is pretty awesome but nothing beats the big screen.

Part of the missing footage is a sex scene...in 3D!

"The AVATAR re-release will have 9 extra minutes, not 8 and it will all be CG. No extra footage of live action characters drinking coffee. Rainforest; some at night; a hunt sequence - a lot of flying; high impact action; an emotional scene toward the end has been added back; "the best CG in the film has been added as far as facial performance"; A Na'vi counterattack after the bulldozer attack; more of Grace at the school; adding the Stingbat and Sturmbeast creatures; additional Quaritch final AMP Suit battle shots; more of the glade love scene. It is all on par with the best of the rest of the film. They had lots of footage to choose from and they put back the absolute best scenes and shots they could."


Expands on the "glade love scene" I guess. As you already see their appendages "interact", I doubt it can get more intimate besides rubbing and grinding or more kissing. Not really necessary, the rest of the added scenes sound cool though.

Mr. Cameron. You're successful enough. You don't need to do this.
