"Avatar" is the story of an ex-Marine who finds himself thrust into hostilities on an alien planet filled with exotic life forms. As an Avatar, a human mind in an alien body, he finds himself torn between two worlds, in a desperate fight for his own survival and that of the indigenous people.
James Cameron has been working on this film for over 10 years and Weta is in charge of the special effects, they're using some of the most revolutionary new technology. Today was "Avatar Day". 15 minutes of footage from Avatar was shown in select 3D theatres across the country. Me and my brother were lucky enough to get to see the footage, and this movie looks amazing! The aliens looked like they were actually there. Weta has created astonishing results once again. They used a new kind of facial motion capture which is able to capture 100% of all movements on the face. The trailer doesnt even compare to what the footage looks like in 3D.
