geeking out on Avatar

I still can't get over how awesome the 15min preview of Avatar was that I watched last week... To celebrate, here are a few screen captures from the HD teaser trailer (for those of you who have a crappy computer like me - I can't play the HD version cause it' too much for my computer to handle :P)

The world of Pandora is very cool at night - the forests are full of bio-luminescent plants and animals... Apparently inspired by James Cameron's love of deep sea life. This scene is the only one of that in the teaser, the ones in the preview were SOOOO much more intense, and according to Nick even that was nothing!!! This stuff looks so incredible in 3D!


He stands 3m tall, his bones are made from 'naturally occurring carbon fibre' and he's the Avatar (created using the DNA of the Na'vi - native species of Pandora) of Jake Sully. Needless to say he rocks!

As well as generally kicking ass, Jake goes all native and plays with face paints! ROAR!

Jake's lady-navi-friend Neytiri. She's pretty!
