20 Things We Now Know About Avatar

"It's like dreaming with your eyes open..."

20. It’s Ultra-Ambitious

“Avatar is the single most complex piece of filmmaking ever made. We have 1,600 shots for a 2.5-hour movie.

“It's not with a single CGI character, like King Kong or Gollum. We have hundreds of photo-realistic CG characters.”

 Why This Makes Us Even More Excited

Hundreds of Gollums? Okay James, you've talked us into seeing it, just about. Maybe. NOW RELEASE A TRAILER ALREADY!

This baby is either going to be Cameron's "Schindler's List" or his "Heaven's Gate." The bar's set too high for there to be any in-between.

In a time when Hollywood seems to be obsessed with prequels, sequels and reboots here's James Cameron proving that there still are an original thought or two left in Hollywood. Am unbelievably excited about this movie.

Im hopeful but concerned. No doubt this will be a UK 12a/US PG-13 so they can try and get as many people in and make as much money as possible. I understand that, but such films are usually 'watered down for the masses', and end up being weak, cartoonish, special-effects action films (like the Mummy films or Transformers films). Cameron has a great track record but no-one only makes great films (Speilberg hasn't managed it in 15 years, and he's one of the best!), so im going to temper my excitement until we know a bit more.
Also im red/green colour blind so the 3D could be a problem - anyone know?
