16. The Tech Involved Is Outrageous
“We’ve pioneered new effects technology and we’re shooting the film in stereoscopic 3D, while the live action portion uses cameras that took us nine years to develop.”
Why This Makes Us Even More Excited
This is pretty much like the person who worked out how to add colour to black and white movies sitting down and explaining how the process works. There's a reason why Hollywood is going gaga for 3D, JC is going to change everything.
17. Avatar Won’t Be Like Watching A Normal Movie
“The goal was to combine these new filmmaking technologies with powerful narratives, visuals and design, and to create this fully immersive cinematic experience.
Not like watching a movie, more like taking the journey.”
Why This Makes Us Even More Excited
Despite the technological focus, Cameron hasn't forgotten about the most important thing - the story.

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. http://www.igp-scifi.com

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?
