Another 3D film that there's probably no point me going to see.

CGI in the second half of that trailer looks like something nVidia or ATi would release as a tech demo for their latest graphics card, would have expected better from a film frankly.

that looks weird :/

I'm curious about the film, some good potential in it, but can't help but wonder how much it's just going to be a big CGI fest, and how much plot there will actually be.
The industries habit now of providing trailers that don't give you any idea of the plot, not even a proper tease just leaves me with little or no interest in watching the film.
Not like the good ol' days...

Plus "Avatar", great it does suit the circumstances, he's controlling an avatar and fighting on the moon but with "Avatar: The Last Air Bender" coming up that people refer to as "Avatar" too it's a little confusing sometimes what various people are talking about.

You'll love this then, the second trailer for Avatar pretty much gives the entire film away. It's essentially the whole plot played out in 2 minutes.

Anyone who wants to watch it and have some element of surprise left, don't watch the second trailer!

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

As South Park so amusingly joked, it does actually look like Dances With Wolves + Smurfs.

End Spoiler Alert!

Saw the trailer the other day, and it sadly left me unimpressed

Garp · 23-11-2009, 19:36

Likewise.
