I want the blu-ray for the third disc extras. I am curiopus about the delted scenes regardless and wonder whether they are in finished form or lack some final effects touches.
That cover art is gorgeous! I want a poster of that!
How much is the Blu-Ray going to cost? Hopefully the sale price will be reasonable. Can't wait anyway. Hold off on the original release for this.

I agree about that cover art, might even be better in person b/c i hope its shiny. Also the deleted scenes caught my eye. I know most will be unfinished tho b/c cameron has said on a few occassions. They seem to be ignoring the 3d release though huh?
A family-friendly audio track? Are you f****g kidding me?

The movie is being released this December in 3D too, but it's Panasonic exclusive so you have to buy a tv to get it.(Or eBay, which is where i'll be going for it.)

No, sadly they are not. The levels of growing stupidity and fascism in the world are appalling.
What about another "discriminating spectator-friendly audio track", free of cringe-inducing dialogue?

wow a 3 disc blu-ray set where none of the other discs are a dvd copy or a digital copy? its just two full discs of extras? wow, i am utterly amazed and floored...didn't think that was possible anymore.
as for the 3D version, outside of that special package coming...they announced months ago that a retail version wouldnt hit until 2011 at the earliest anyway so no shock there. all the home video details of all 3 versions were announced before the movie even came out in stores. thats why i purposely didnt buy the first release as i like special editions and knew this was coming.
i personally don't care about the 3D version though. saw this in 3D in theaters and that was enough, it wasnt impressive then so doubt it would be on a television.

Take note everyone: no JC commentary, no interactive features...I guess we'll have to wait for yet-another-collector's-edition.
What do you mean no interactive features?

I hate to say this, but not having the profanity might be an improvement. I would certainly miss Grace's "Oh, sh**" but the other lines?
"Yeah! That's right bit**!"
"If you love your animal friends, why not just let them kill my a**?"
It really felt out of place to be honest. I wouldn't mind giving this a shot.

I loved the movie, but I also felt there was an overuse of swear words in situations where they weren't necessary. So even though I dont have kids, I think its a cool feature to add (and apparently Cameron decided to do it after his wife mentioned it re: their own kid watching the movie)
How about an audio track with only the forgettable soundtrack on it? Nearly every line of dialog detracts from my enjoyment of this movie.
I enjoyed this flick in the theater. Wasn't blown away, but I didn't hate it. I do now though. When you watch this movie on anything but an IMAX screen, it becomes all too apparent that it is a c**ppy movie. To quote Paul Scheer: "Watching Avatar on a normal screen is like turning on the lights in a strip club."

Speak for yourself.
Avatar in HD on my TV looks nothing short of spectacular and is a greatly enjoyable film. It wipes the floor with virtually any other blockbuster of the past decade that isn't named Lord of the Rings. Id rather watch Avatar a hundred times over than be subjected to another terrible comic book movie like Iron Man 2 any day.

I hold off for this cant wait to have avatar Finally.
I don't care about the 3d either. I didnt want to give off that vibe, its just that i know JC is really an advocate for 3d so its funny that all this kinda went the opposite direction for them. Its the studios that are killing it. When u limit ur content not only to the consumer but to certain studio support what do u expect? Its a party foul. Why would i buy a 3d tv and not be able to play all 3d movies? Smells like BS to me
I'm a lot more eager to see the special features on this film than the film itself. Bleh.
Missed the Special Edition re-release, so can't wait to get my first glimpse of Nav'i pr0n.....

THANK YOU! I'm glad I'm not the only one who got a little vomit in their mouth over that. 1st off the idea that anyone (especially a filmmaker) would want a censored version on an official release let alone marketed as a BONUS feature but to label it 'family track' is just nauseating.

I think it's pretty sad that fans of the movie that already have a 3D setup cannot get the movie in 3D HD individually. Packaging it with a player is a dirty ploy.
I myself got burnt out the second time I saw the movie and I wouldn't want to revisit Pandora either in an extended version, or in a sequel. Still, the artwork on the extended edition Blu-ray looks good, because for once we don't have to see those ugly N'avi!

I only want to see the alternate Earth opening.
I think i'll wait for a 3D version, I hope..

dont worry, the 3D version will hit sometime next year. if they're doing that deal with the tv in december then i wouldnt be surprised if it comes out in january or february. but as i said before, its interesting and funny seeing them delay most of the 3D releases.

The movie was ok but way over hyped
Good movie. Only watched my theatrical BD once since buying it last april but this release looks outstanding! its gonna be the T2 Ultimate Edition of Blu-rays!
I'd also like to add that this is How studios should release DVDs and BluRays. The DVD has great features to begin with (the documentary and deleted scenes), while the BluRay just adds an extra disc of features to that.
Loved it the first two times I saw it....then got stuck seeing it over 3 more times because of friends wanting to see it....I CANNOT STAND IT NOW!!!!
