Agreed! Its one of the best animated series I've ever seen.
Actually, the reason I found out about this Avatar film (the James Cameron one) was because of the little legal scuffle his production company had over the copyright for the name, as the makers of the Avatar: The Last Airbender series wanted to use the Avatar name for the upcoming live-action movie, directed by M.Night Shyamalan.

First of all, don't feed the trolls. Everyone knows this has nothing to do with the Nickelodeon Avatar cartoon show.
I don't think you understand. How many people here saw Star Wars in May 1977 and remember how much of a big deal that was? It's not about applying technology in a new way or just making a 'good' movie, this is the first movie in perhaps a decade that has pioneered and invented new technologies solely for the purpose of improving the experience. Technological developments will catapult the industry ahead.
Major individuals in the motion picture industry are saying this will be that big of a deal. People with no real financial motivation for doing so are saying this movie will be a big deal. I'm pretty sure this movie is going to be a big deal.
I personally don't see how it can live up to hype like that. This. The movie might end up being a flop, but the effect this movie will have on the industry will be huge. How would it flop if its going change the industry? That's pretty contradictory.
Think Blade Runner.
edit - apologies for double post.

There's so much hype because this is James Cameron's first "real movie" in 12 years, since he stopped playing submersible Steve Irwin. And James Cameron is a director who really knows cinema: He did the best Aliens ( Alien 2) he did the best Terminator (T2) and he also did The Abyss and True Lies which (despite the latter starring Arnold Scharwzenegger) were highly cinematic. And he's always been really good with technology.
And nowadays 3D is mainly just used as a gimmick, it hasn't found it's artistic purposes in cinema, and everyone looks to Avatar and to James Cameron to take cinema to the next level because it's the dawn of a new era. It's like someone using effectively Sound for the first time in cinema. So, yeah, that's why Avatar is hyped.
good post, I agree

I wonder why nobody mentions Titanic as being one of James Cameron's best creation (either top 3, if not the best). Its pretty ballsy to take a 200 million dollar movie with so much bad hype and write a very very perfected drama movie. Its probably THE best romantic movie ever made.
Top 3:
Aliens
Terminator 2
Titanic

Oh, I didn't mention it cause i think it's shit.

If you have a penis that is, otherwise is the best movie ever made in the history of the universe.

Saw a preview for this last night watching the transfomers movie and looks like it's going to be a really amazing movie. Also the kid isn't white which makes it even better because that ruined it for me with the Dragonball Z live action movie ]=.

Erm, far as I can tell from the talk from E3, Jame's Cameron's Avatar has nothing to do with with the anime.

part of the hype is that James Cameron hasn't worked on a film since Titanic

My wife thinks Titanic sucks. And the best romantic movie out there is Pride and Prejudice (the BBC series, not the last one with KK), and despite my best efforts - I have to agree with her.
Also, Finding Neverland >>>> Titanic in every aspect.

that teaser is giving off some serious koyaanisqatsi vibes

Apparently Ubisoft is making the Avatar game. I'm not sure but I have a feeling that it could be a pretty good game.
