James Cameron's "Avatar"

Hello everyone (well, my ten or so followers). I know I haven't been creating blog posts like I thought I would. Even with many different reasons to post, I still wasn't finding myself posting anything here.

But that all changed with this one thing, that has gotten me so pumped up and excited for, that there was no way I was not going to post this up -- The latest trailer for James Cameron's movie, "Avatar"! You can sign up to be notified the moment it hits DVD here or on Blu-ray here.

James Cameron is one of my favourite directors. He has made some of my favourite movies like Terminator 2 and True Lies. I remember watching T2 over and over again as I grew up. I'm not sure why, but I just loved everything about that movie. I felt as if it was one of the few movies that has influenced my methods of creating action and suspenseful scenes. I sure hope that influence reflects especially within my upcoming big project, "Temporal Guardian".

After making the highest-grossing movie of all time, "Titanic", Cameron went on a 12-year hiatus developing this movie and the new 3D technology to go with it. He even said he was waiting for "technology to improve" before making this movie, and through years of determination and extreme patience, he has attained a new 3D technology which was invented especially to make this movie a reality. The problem is that this new 3D technology requires new projection equipment in theatres to be installed. Right now, they're on a blitz to have as many theatres ready for the Avatar release date on December 18th, 2009.

Cameron also hopes that other film-makers will eventually adopt his new 3D-technology in creating future films. I can't wait to experience it, and I hope D-Box will be quick to jump on this movie as well, to complete the immersive experience!

After seeing the first Avatar teaser, I was a bit unsure of Cameron's return to film-making.. but with this new and latest trailer, all doubts have been eliminated. This trailer has really gotten me pumped for his new movie. If I can sum up the following trailer in two words, it would be this:

"Absolutely BREATHTAKING!"

Written and Directed by James Cameron, Avatar has me incredibly stoked! Enjoy!
