Video Impressions: James Cameron’s ‘Avatar’ Sneak Peek

Me and YaYaLuvsCupcakes hit up the 16-minute sneak preview of James Cameron’s Avatar in IMAX 3D this past Friday and it actually wasn’t as bland as the trailer that was released last week. There a few scenes shown, showing off everything from how the film will utilize 3D, the range of expression that the CG characters are capable of, what CG jungles will look like, how intense the action scenes will be, and some hot alien chick nipples.

Click through for the video review.

The plot basically goes something like this: In the future, humans find some planet where human life can’t survive for some reason or another, but there’s these giant blue aliens who can survive. So, scientists figure out how to grow the blue dudes in a lab, then transfer human brains into the blue dudes. A cripple dude does this, and now he’s pumped that he can walk and has a giant blue dong. He goes to the blue people planet and gets mixed up in a war between the humans and blue dudes, but he realizes that he has to fight against the humans because they’re bad. Or something. The real blues teach the impostor blue their ways, like how to survive in the jungle, how to hijack a dragons brain to turn it into a flying motorcycle, and how to make sweet alien love.

When I was leaving the theater, I heard someone describe the film’s plot as “Last of the Mohicans, in space.”

Did anyone else get to see the sneak peek? Did it remind you of the Native American’s struggle against the white man? Did you appreciate the use of sexy blue alien nipple CG effects in 3D? Does Sigourney Weaver kinda’ freak you out? What kind of name is Sigourney, anyway? Let me know in the comments.
