Avatar (the Original, Not the Sequel) Finally Has a New Trailer

Audiences have been ready so lengthy to see a sequel to James Cameron’s Avatar that time has looped again round on itself and the unique movie is popping out once more.

After over a decade of prep and manufacturing, that sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, is lastly popping out December 16. Despite its predecessor being the best grossing movie in historical past, at virtually $3 billion worldwide, Fox and its new house owners Disney really feel moviegoers want a refresher (most likely a good suggestion, really). That’s why the unique 2009 mega hit is coming again to theaters for 2 weeks beginning September 23 and a brand new trailer for the outdated film is right here. Which, usually, we’d ignore however damned if this nonetheless isn’t an incredible trailer.

The press launch touts that the re-release can be in “stunning 4K High Dynamic Range” which sounds nice, however 90% of people that enterprise out to see the movie gained’t be in a theater that cares sufficient about presentation so that you can discover. But if you wish to rewatch Avatar earlier than the brand new movie, going to the theater is likely to be your greatest guess. Disney eliminated the unique movie from its Disney+ streaming service with out discover up to now few days, more than likely to drive curiosity towards this occasion. One would hope although that after the two-week engagement, it goes again on the streamer.

I revisited Avatar a couple of years again and I’ve to say, I used to be not simply pleasantly shocked, I used to be type of shocked by it. Shocked that the wildly revolutionary visible results nonetheless appeared fairly damned good and shocked at simply how expansive and epic the movie’s story is. Yes, it’s simply Dances With Wolves and Pocahontas or no matter, however a movie that begins with a person in a wheelchair going into house and ends with lots of of blue beings preventing mech warriors is expansive in methods most motion pictures immediately wouldn’t dare try. I believed “Love it or hate it, this is a proper movie.”

Written and directed by the legendary James Cameron, Avatar stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Stephen Lang, Michelle Rodriguez, and Sigourney Weaver, most of whom return for the sequel. It was nominated for 9 Academy Awards together with Best Picture and Best Director and gained three, for Best Cinematography, Production Design, and Visual Effects. Here’s the total new poster for the rerelease.
