Thundercats, Hoooooooo!!!
Well, well, well… look who decided to grace the surface dwellers with his presence and return to the world of film making. It’s been 12 years since Titanic careened into the iceberg of moviegoer’s consciousness, and it seems James Cameron has finally tired of tooling around in underwater submersibles looking for pirate treasure. Today, nerds of the world shat their collective pants as the first teaser for Cameron’s new film, Avatar, hit the web.
I don’t know what to think about this one. The trailer looks damn good, all gussied up in HD like a dirty whore, but I’ve never really been big on effects films. I need something more. A little emotion. A tug on the ole heartstrings. What’s that you say? This is the man who directed Titanic? I said tug, not bound and gagged, tied to a horse and run off a cliff. You see my concern? I can only hope one of those feral alien bitches gets naked so some sensitive space marine can draw her “like one of his french ladies.” Unfortunately, the creatures don’t look anywhere near as voluptuous as Kate Winslet. They look more akin to the lithe, muscular woMEN that Cameron is partial to.
Linda Hamilton in Avatar
Haha, I didn’t even think too much about the Linda Hamilton angle. But yeah, the first half of the trailer is stunning.
“Linda Hamilton in Avatar” gave me a good laugh.
Case in point, his current wife, Suzy Amis. She played a chick playing a dude (quite convincingly) in The Ballad of Little Jo.
Avatar looks hugely disappointing. From all the hype I was expecting something much more exciting than that “it’s animated, but we tried to make it look real” bullshit.
