Ok, so it's not the best thing since sliced bread. It's not even the best teaser trailer of all time. So why then am I so excited about Avatar. Well the simple answer is James Cameron. The return of one of the most impressive, brilliant, ambitious and pure cinematic genius filmmakers of the past 50 years. James has been gone from our screens since Titanic. That's 12 years. He's not Kubrick. Although he's not far off. The trailer is visually sumptuous, a stunning mixture of alien world, alien characters, military might and fantastic visuals. Cameron has been gone too long, and right now I'd settle for his big screen adaptation of Tetris the movie. So with the look of Avatar and whats being said about how it will look, Cameron could once again changed cinema forever. It will not however make as much money as Titanic. Also, as pointed out to me, Cameron sans beard. Not sure about that. Hopefully not a Samson situation. Check out the trailer though. It's special.
