Avatar Reviews, Interviews & More
It’s been all of three years since James Cameron’s Dances with Ferngully the Last Rainforest Avatar was released and became the highest grossing film in human history. And, in that time, Cameron—when not setting other world records, this time for deep sea diving—has been slowly building the CGI worlds and ecosystems that will make up the worlds of Avatar 2...
There’s been much talk of the upcoming Avatar films recently; last week, producer Jon Landau clarified that they would be shooting the second and third Avatar films back-to-back, then James Cameron chimed in that if there was to be a fourth film, it would be a prequel. Now Cameron has revealed he’s in the process of making up an ocean ecosystem for...
Seeing how much James Cameron invested into creating and constructing the world of Avatar, it makes sense that the director of such films as Terminator, Aliens and Titanic would eventually become trapped by that investment, and locked into making at least two sequels to the CGI’d blockbuster (see also: Peter Jackson and his...
Avatar was one of those "once in a lifetime" moments in cinema. It was a phenomenon in theaters, where it made an unprecedented $2.78 Billion dollars worldwide, and more than $750 Million domestic. At the same time, three years after the 2009 release of the film, it's hard to say if people are clamoring for more. Though there were jokes about the obsessed fans, the...
The end of summer is usually a time where the hit movies have come and gone. Indeed, last weekend saw only one movie do over $10 Million dollars... So for this Labor day weekend, The Avengers is returning to the big screen.
When movie mogul James Cameron told The New York Times that he was "in the Avatar business – period," he wasn't joking. Sigourney Weaver just told Showbiz 411 that she'll be spending an unspecified amount of time filming back-to-back-to-back sequels of Avatar.
Love him or hate him, director James Cameron has never been one to play it safe. But Cameron just announced that he is not open to developing any projects, original or otherwise, in the near future. Instead he will focus entirely on directing sequels to his groundbreaking 3D epic Avatar. This is cause for concern. In the past, some directors opted to coast off huge...
Fans of James Cameron’s earlier work (the first two Terminator films, Aliens, The Abyss, True Lies) have been waiting patiently for 15 years for the mercurial director to return to non-Avatar filmmaking, as not all of us have been fans of his Dances with Ferngully the Last...
Bad news for fans of Dances With Wolves in Ferngully the Last Rainforest Avatar—Fox had previously announced that the sequel, Avatar 2, would have a 2014 release date, with Avatar 3 to quickly follow in 2015. However, as /Film points out, Avatar 2 has no green light or official cast, and with James Cameron...
Avatar is the most successful (unadjusted) film to ever play in American theaters, but though James Cameron has been talking sequels, it's hard to weigh the film's cultural weight. Perhaps the blue paint has kept it from being a hot-button Halloween costume (that and the nudity), but it's two years later, and it's unknown when it will it be sequelized, and there...
Are you anxiously awaiting news about the next installments in James Cameron's Avatar trilogy? Well, you're in luck because the Oscar winning director recently opened about about his plans for the projects. It's no secret that the movies will take a lot of time and effort to complete, therefore Cameron plans on shooting them not back to back -- but simultaneously....
Earlier this week, James Cameron appeared at a special 3D event promoting his latest film Sanctum. He serves as producer along with Andrew Wight, while Alister Grierson takes on directing duties. The movie is based on actual events and takes viewers into a world of cave diving and illustrates its many dangers. All three men were in attendance at Universal City Walk,...
Out of all the year-end movie lists to come out this week, this is by far the most controversial. Over at TorrentFreak, they've named the Top 10 Most Pirated Movies of 2010 and we have to say the number one pick was slightly surprising. Avatar topped the list while the number two spot was taken by a comic book film that really could have used the...
The holiday season is upon us, and apparently Santa Claus doesn’t know the meaning of the word “recession.” There are no lay-offs at the North Pole (unless you've just watched "Family Guy's" Road to the North Pole episode)! With that in mind, we’re sure you’ve got some films fans on your shopping list, so we’ll lend a hand with our list of the best DVD and Blu-Ray discs...
Here's the bad news: There is absolutely no TV on DVD being released this week. None whatsoever. Well, at least none of note (something tells me Season 5 of Perry Mason doesn't really resonate with the Internet crowd) so there will be no section on the small screen for maybe the first time in the history of this column.
The good news: There is a TON of new feature films being released this...

For those of you who decided to buy Avatar on DVD and Blu-ray as soon as it came out -- shame on you! With movies of this caliber you're supposed to wait a while because the studio always has some extras up their sleeve. In this case, they've announced the release of Avatar's Extended Collector's Edition DVD and Blu-ray, which has over 8...
James Cameron's affinity for nature and his background as a scuba diver will come to ahead in the upcoming Avatar sequel. According to the UK site, The Daily Mail the director plans on transporting the film's story into the deep, blue seas of Pandora, and he'll take unprecedented measures to do it (no surprise there).
