Blu-ray special edition info
 
http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=4338

That story has a whole lot of information on the November release of the special edition, and man, does it sound awesome :D Three versions of the movie and the feature I wanted most, a full-time picture-in-picture showing the motion capture of the entire movie.

Woooo! thanks for the link zongtseng :) soo hopefully my pre-ordered blu-ray avatar will have one of those discount things for the november release too, although we seem to get shafted with most things like that in oz.

The special edition sounds pretty sweet and thanks for the info zongtseng.

Cameron confirmed that the Blu-ray release would have an aspect ratio of 1.78:1 (or 16:9), which he considers the "highest and best for this movie." The movie was finished in 16:9, so for the Blu-ray they went to that master, without any pan-and-scan or blow-up.
I would like to shake Mr. Cameron's hand for this! This looking through a slit 2.35:1 ratio stuff that's happening pisses me off to no end:angry: It waste valuable screen area with those stupid black bars. At least the bare bones version is being done the right way, in 16:9:)

This is awesome! I almost want to buy a new tv and everything before it comes out :D

Also, are they doing it in 3D? I wonder if it will be the same on personal TV's

Haha, i don't use a tv for any of my media entertainment (everything on my pc) but i have pre-ordered Avatar on Blu-ray, soo no incentive to put a blu-ray drive in my computer like it being necessary to watch the greatest film ever made! :party:

who of you will buy the DVD version that is coming soon? because I don not know what to do, first I have to buy a PS3 to get the blu-ray... then of course wait to November for the special edition
thanks for the link and the info, so which kind of screen could it play AVATAR? 23" or more, I´m lost sorry

I'm counting hours, here!

oh dear, I might have to shell out the money for both. I was going to wait until the end of the year to buy the special edition. My brother is planning on buying the one that is coming out next month so I'll just use his for the time being. The special edition sounds awesome :).

Stanley_9875 03-26-2010 04:10 PM

yes yes YES!!! Irayo for the link! Ugh I wish that the government didn't suck my bank account for nearly all the money I had for taxes, I want a new TV sooooo badly for Avatar, but I'll have to stick with ours. Don't get me wrong, its big, it just could be bigger... oh well time for the coffee table to find a new spot in the den because I'm going to be sitting pretty much right were thats at. Close, large, and loud! And I'll need a PS3 or other 3-D compatible Blue-Ray player before the 22nd. I'll make it happen :D Anyone want to invite me over to watch on their massive TV?

I also want to sign up for all the other bonus stuff they have, like the trees and such

guyguy 03-31-2010 08:32 AM

wow!
30 to 35 min extra?
do want indeed

Awesome! Now, if only I had a big-screen TV and a Blu-ray drive. :) Well, the DVD should still be awesome ... right?
