It’s been a little over 12 years since director James Cameron worked on a film; does a film by the name of Titanic ring a bell? Avatar, his latest ‘masterpiece’, is an action/adventure/fantasy 3D movie to be released on December 10, 2009 in regular and IMAX theaters alike. The hype surrounding the movie is so incredible that the main site crashed for some time because of the horde of viewers trying to purchase tickets in advance.

Avatar takes us to a spectacular new world beyond our imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and discovery, as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization. The film was first conceived by Cameron 14 years ago, when the means to realize his vision did not yet exist. Now, after four years of actual production work, Avatar delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film, disappears into the emotion of the characters and the sweep of the story.

First off we have to say that for the longest we confused this movie with M. Night Shyamalan‘s film Avatar: The Last Airbender. After reading the synopsis it still doesn’t stick… From the visuals alone the movie looks to be massive but on the contrary nothing about the settings are that beautiful. We don’t know, as the months pass we’ll make up our mind as to whether or not we want to see it or not.
