Avatar - 15 Minutes of Sneak Peek in 3D

What? Avatar 15 minutes special screening in 3D

When? Aug 22 (Saturday) 10.30am

Where? GSC Mid Valley, Selangor (Hall 4)

On Friday, Aug 21, the world finally had its first look at director James Cameron’s Avatar, when 20th Century Fox and Cameron debut the film’s trailer everywhere – while selected cinemas would screen extended footage prepared by the renowned filmmaker for this global “Avatar Day” event.

The special screening took place on Saturday morning in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia because of the time difference. I won myself two passes for the event from The Star newspaper.

Glug! Glug! I was given 2 passes and 2 bottles of mineral water. :) No popcorn though. :(

The show was in 3D. We saw James Cameron popped out from the screen during the intro....The fler sitting next to me extended his hand like he was going to grab James Cameron.

Never see 3D before izzit? LOL!

It's bursting with colour! It has got eye-popping, jaw-dropping and head-spinning actions! It's loud!

The aliens remind me of elongated Smurf...with tails. They are BLUE.

The film – which has totalled more than US$240mil in production costs thus far and has been four years in the making – takes one to a spectacular new world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption, discovery and unexpected love, as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization.

The film was first conceived by Cameron 14 years ago, when the means to realise his vision did not yet exist.

15 mins of 3D is fantastic but I am not sure if I could survive 3 hours (well..Titanic lasted 194mins) LOL!

The movie stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Stephen Lang, Michelle Rodriguez and Sigourney Weaver.

My verdict: See the survey form I filled up below. :)
