UPDATE: Trailer now working and in HD

James Cameron’s Avatar doesn’t open until December 18th, but already it seems to have divided people dorks on the internet into pro and anti camps.  I think the CG looks sorta cheesedick (see above) and I hate 3D, but effects are secondary anyway, and the film earned my cautious optimism based on Cameron’s track record alone.

This new trailer is pretty long and looks good overall.  It inspires hope that Sam Worthington is finally in something that doesn’t suck as bad as Terminator Salvation, though it also reminds me that Michelle Rodriguez is in this — she’s so hardcore and Latina, you putos better recognize!  Come to think of it, it seems kind of weird that Sam Worthington’s playing basically the same spy-who-abandons-his-infiltration-mission character in this as in Terminator Salvation.   I’m thinking he can resolve this conflict with a simple heart transplant.  Because the heart is literally all that matters, you guys.
