ReviewSTL invites you to enter to win passes to the St. Louis advance screening of “Avatar”

avatarEnter for your chance to win a pass good for two!

OPENS DECEMBER 18, 2009

Synopsis:

A paraplegic ex-marine war veteran is unwillingly sent to establish a human settlement on the distant planet of Pandora, only to find himself battling humankind alongside the planet’s indigenous Na’vi race in this ambitious digital 3-D sci-fi epic from Academy Award-winning Titanic director James Cameron. The film, which marks Cameron’s first dramatic feature since 1997’s Titanic, will be shot on the proprietary FUSION digital 3-D cameras developed by Cameron in collaboration with Vince Pace, and will offer a groundbreaking mix of live-action dramatic performances and computer-generated effects. Australian actor Sam Worthington stars as the reluctant human settler, Jake Sully, with actress Zoe Saldana signing on to portray the local woman who enters into a romantic affair with the hero. The revolutionary motion-capture system created for the film allows the facial expressions of actors to be captured as a virtual camera system enables them to see what their computer-generated counterparts will be seeing in the film, and Peter Jackson’s Oscar-winning Weta Digital visual-effects house has been hired to supervise Avatar’s complex visual effects. Joel Moore, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, and Michelle Rodriguez round out the cast. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

    I’ll give you three reasons why I want to see this movie:

    3D
    James Cameron
    Sigourney Weaver

    This is going to be a great movie!

  • Jim Bertel , December 11, 2009

    It’s Jimmy Cameron. How could I not want to see this? Also, I’d like to see Sam Worthington in action again.

  • Barney , December 11, 2009

    Three reasons 1) cameron’s writing
    is on a par with the late great
    Philip K. Dick , 2)Zoe Saldana
    and 3) I’ve forgiven Cameron for
    Rambo First Blood Part 2.

  • Rubadub , December 11, 2009

    I’ve got a flight to Pandora the week after Christmas and I really wanted to be prepared for the trip.

  • devalera01 , December 11, 2009

    i can’t wait to see the follow up to titanic!

  • Tim , December 11, 2009

    I would kill my brother to see this movie…not really. But I am very excited and can’t wait mainly because I want to see if Sam Worthington is gonna be this star that Hollywood wants him to be.

  • Adam , December 11, 2009

    I want to see this movie, because I feel it will be more of an event than a movie. This should be the movie event of the year. James Cameron let to do whatever he wants? How could this be wrong?

  • John , December 11, 2009

    James Cameren doing what he does best. Can’t wait to see it.

  • ALYAHS , December 11, 2009

    James Cameron was written, directed, and produced some good movies in the past years and this one looks be a winner too.

  • Becca Price , December 11, 2009

    This movie looks so cool and I really want to see it. I love the technology and I’m looking forward to seeing if it is as good as everyone says its going to be.

  • Melissa , December 11, 2009

    I want the tickets for my friend. She is dying to see the movie and just went through a bad divorce. I’m sure if she saw this, all her problems would be resolved forever… or maybe not but it would cheer her up! 🙂

  • Amanda , December 11, 2009

    I have to be honest, when I saw the previews to this movie I wept. How many people can say that?

  • Tony , December 11, 2009

    Please take my word for it. I want these tickets more than anyone else in the world!

  • Melissa Gibson , December 11, 2009

    I love the story line and the graphics look neat. I am ready to see this movie and so is my husband!

  • robert peterson , December 11, 2009

    i love 3D movies hoping these new cameras are the next thing in movies.

  • Joel , December 11, 2009

    My college-age son has been telling me about this movie for nearly a year. His anticipation has me hooked too.

  • Charles Pavlack , December 11, 2009

    Because of stuff going on in my personal life, I haven’t been able to get out recently, and would love to by seeing this film.

  • Tyrone Hill , December 11, 2009

    This may be the best movie of the year. This has been a very slow year for movies and James Cameron is a sure thing when it comes to quality.

  • BOB , December 11, 2009

    A lot of time and effort has gone into the making of this picture and Cameron has the potential of making a great picture, therefore, I would like to see it.

  • sher , December 12, 2009

    I love 3-D movies. I saw the scenes to this movie in 3-D and it looked really exciting.

  • Irene Liu , December 12, 2009

    I’ve been traveling a lot lately. When I’m in town, I’m always looking for special things to do with my son. He would love to go to the advance screening of Avatar!

  • caroln , December 12, 2009

    actually my oldest son is the one who wants to see this movie. He talks about it all the time…

  • Thomas Wilson , December 12, 2009

    Itlooks a really cool movie and very action pack

  • LaDonna , December 12, 2009

    When I first saw the previews I thought it looked good, and my daughter told me later that she would really like to see it. It would be a great mom and daughter time during this hectic holiday time.

  • Brittany , December 12, 2009

    I really like animation and my passion is drawing style I draw is manga. The previews look great

  • lv_freeman , December 12, 2009

    I would like to see a movie in 3D and this would be a great one.

  • Bianca , December 12, 2009

    Because it’s probably like Last of the Mohicans with Smurfs. And the Smurfs will have their vengeance!

  • Michael , December 13, 2009

    Love James Cameron, when we get to see them once every 10 years.

  • Dan Callahan , December 13, 2009

    I want to win tickets because I really want to see if Vincent Chase can be as good as in this film as he was in Aquaman. Wait, what?

  • jenny , December 13, 2009

    I have seen so many trailers and commercials on the big screen. I heard it is the most expensive movie ever made. Looks really really good, would love to see it.

  • dee , December 13, 2009

    I love 3d movies and this one looks like spectacular special effects and a good story line.

  • Chris , December 13, 2009

    I’m really curious, for one reason. The other reason is that I have a good friend that wants to see the movie and it would really irritate him if I got to see it early. If that’s not a good reason, then I don’t know what is.

  • Joey_Vee , December 13, 2009

    I just read in USA Today that during a scene where the actors are playing their CGI counterparts, James Cameron needed them to move like they were being hit by debris. To get the desired effect, he beat them with a giant q tip. I NEED to see how this plays out on screen.

  • Erica , December 13, 2009

    I don’t feel any movie I’ve seen so far in 2009 has absolutely blown me away and I think this has that potential. Second, ever since I saw the Alien movies I have loved Sigourney Weaver! I’m also vaguely intrigued by these blue people… for the mere fact that they are blue.

  • Jessica , December 13, 2009

    I am a HUGE fan of Pixar. I watched “The Making of..” and just know that it will be an amazing film.

  • Gene , December 13, 2009

    Everybody wants to see this movie — and I do,too. 3D movies are just special and don’t come along very often. James Cameron has a terrific reputation as a filmmaker and I want to see if this one measures up.

  • Lora , December 14, 2009

    WE love James Cameron’s work and cannot wait to see the special effects of this movie!!!

  • Darod , December 15, 2009

    Sam Worthington really blew me away in Terminator and now I can’t wait to see what else he can do. I have a feeling he is going to be one of the biggest stars of 2010.

  • Kristin , December 15, 2009

    I love that James Cameron always has strong female leads in his movies. And the best part is that they are regular gals who are thrown into extraordinary situations. It is very inspiring.
