News About The Sequel And The DvD In April.

Cameron was more than willing to confirm his intentions for continuing the Avatar saga. “There are still a few things to work out with the studio, but yes, there will be a sequel,” he assures.

Cameron says when he first pitched the idea for Avatar, he told the executives at 20th Century Fox that he was going to put a lot of effort into the production and spend millions of dollars to create a filmmaking process that would change computer-generated (CG) technology.

“So from the beginning I really thought it made sense to think of it as a potential franchise,” he reports. No scripts have been written, but Cameron says he has ideas mapped out, and he’s ready to take the world of Pandora to the next level. Everything will be done under the banner of his Lightstorm Entertainment production company based in Santa Monica, California.

The follow-up productions will continue Cameron’s visionary movie-making, raising the bar in the technology that used. But he is quick to emphasis that the emotion in the storytelling is as important as the visuals.

“I didn’t just make a special effects movie. Avatar is moralistic, and it is a true love story,” he says.

Appropriately, the Avatar DVD is coming out on Earth Day, April 22,

And although home viewers won’t be able to see it in 3D, Cameron reports that the movie will appear brighter and more vibrant.

I cannot wait to see what he has in store for us when we return to the most incredible planet Pandora.

True words spoken! I hate it when people say that Avatar was all about the CGI. Far from the truth.

Thanks for the link!

The 2D version in theatres was brighter and more vibrant, I'd say -- is he just referring to the fact that the 3D version is inherently darker?

Yeah, from the 3D glasses, as they don't allow all light through.

[Gunny]

Mine isnt til the end of May though!!! Looks like Ill be doing a few extra cars to get it early! I am going to have so many copies of Avatar

[Human No More]

Mine's in May too, but I'm hoping I can get some other Avatar related stuff for it instead

[Sovereign]

I solve the problem by having people give me money for my birthday so I don't have to explain to them why I am asking for everything Avatar-related.
