If any of you saw the ubisoft conference of E3 this year, you probably saw a segment with James Cameron talking about a game/movie called Avatar. He talked alot about what the game looked like, but he never actually gave any videos or pictures about either movie or game.

I am interested in this and was wondering if anyone has any more information/opinions about it.

Seems that M. Night Shyamalan is going to direct, which I didn't know.

Damn, when I entered this thread I thought it was going to be about my avatar. Anyway that aside, seeing how Avatar is a kids TV program, I'm less that excited about it.

If it's anything like aliens it will be awesome, but I'll save my opinion when I actually see some footage from the movie.

Should be a good game. Avatar is a good show (From what I saw of it when I was younger) and could make for a good game/ movie.

Didn't they already make an Avatar game which (obviously) turned out to be crap?

What a twist!

But I do wonder what the movie and game will be like.

True, but I think that they learned and will make it better.

Ummm, ya so this isn't about the The Last Air bender... It's a 3-d Sci-fi epic. It seems to be about a alien race getting a ticked off when we come to their home-plaent (so were the invaders). The movie is about cybernetic super-soldier the "Avatar". The games seems like it will be a shootem'up where you switch between alien soldiers and human soldier. After hearing this I'm a lot less excited, this is just video-game shooter plot fodder.

P.S. If it was a live action Avatar: The last Airbender movie I'd hate it more, The Last Airbender was a great series, finished great to. It doesn't need a live action movie for an reason other than money. I would be open for an expansion of the fiction how ever.

Yay somebody who listened to what James Cameron actually said! Yea it's nothing to do with Avatar:The Last Air Bender it's his own screenplay that he wrote many years ago.

And to me it sounds very interesting. I'll definitely be checking at least the film out.

Wrong Avatar. The one based one the show is just called "The Last Airbender" to the general public, but has effectionately been nicknamed "Suck" by my friends and I.

Seriously, why is Shamalama directing it? *sigh*

 

[GodsOneMistake]

Guys it has nothing to do with Avatar the last air bender... It's a sci-fi move about aliens and shit.
