James Cameron’s secret has been revealed! This clever little concept was done by the Scientific Analysis and Visualization Initiative at Weber State University using two Kodak ZX1 pocket HD cameras bolted to an L-shaped aluminum bar and mounted on a tripod. Then they just lay the images over each other, tweak the colors to red and blue, and an blammo! Avatar! Or just a couple of birds hanging around, being lazy. [Via Engadget] 
Australian designer Robert Penney made these clever mock-up video game packages for the “Cartridge Video System 2600″ for his series, Retro Games with Modern Themes. Check the rest after the jump. Continue reading “Retro Game Boxes for Modern Movies” →
Jame’s Cameron’s Avatar has been accused of ripping off everything from 1950’s sci-fi novels to album cover art, but this beats any other claim of ripoffery thus far. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I present to you the 1985 Marvel comic Timespirits.
But wait, there’s more!
Fucked. Up. Check out some more comparisons here. With all the talk of Cameron ripping off other artists for this flick, I’m surprised I haven’t heard anything about a boycott. Anyone change their minds about going to watch Avatar after seeing this? [Via Super Punch]
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.

Click through for the video review.

They look like the faerie things from Fern Gully or something. All this hype was making it seem like the CG was gonna’ look hyper-realistic, but it looks kinda like Pixar. Maybe it’ll look better on a big screen in 3D, so I’ll at least try to reserve my judgment until after I check out the 16-minute preview at my local IMAX tomorrow.  |
