But in reality, its actually closer to 165-167 minute limit because that runtime also includes the preview and IMAX intro video IIRC.

I have no doubt IMAX will upgrade their projectors in 2012 for the release of TITANIC 3D, since that film is 194 minutes

I saw the Avatar Extended re-release at the Digital Imax in Wimbledon,London. Although it was my 6th viewing of the film I was again blown away by it,and in no small part to Imax Digital 3D,it's just ridiculously great,and the sound...

You get a lot more of that in the Deleted Scenes, particularly the Festival.

I also like the Hunt as it helps to establish that the Na'vi aren't 100% Peaceniks

They still hunt for food and are great warriors.

Actually thats my favorite part of the Extended Edition. The theatrical cut made the Na'vi look too much like Victims, however in the Extended Cut, you get a much better sense of them and you can see that they are proud warriors.

I LOVED it a lot more that I thought that I would to be honest, as some of those sweeping shots of Banshees were fantastic plus...

I noticed that too Duffy.

Makes me wonder where Jake put the knife in

[Show spoiler]

You know whats funny about the Hunt being included right before the "Stone Cold Hunter" line? The Hunt is originally supposed to be AFTER Jake and Neytiri are chased by the Leonopteryx (you will see what I mean after you see the deleted scenes).

Yeah, that bit made me lol as well

Duffy12 · 11-20-2010, 10:59 PM

OK, I just finished watching all the unfinished deleted scenes and all that I can say is...

Those scenes are worth the cost of the set alone!!!!!

Glad I waited to get this film. Great set. The deleted scenes that were added in really make the film better. I don't think I'll ever need to watch the theatrical cut ever again.

Right.

And don't forget to check out the unfinished deleted scenes on disk two.

They will knock your socks off.

I haven't looked at those yet, I'll probably take a look at them tonight if I have time.

Let me guess, one of those scenes is the "Dreamhunt"

Spike Killer · 11-21-2010, 12:49 AM

I've seen one of the unfinished deleted scenes online. James Cameron wasn't kidding when he said that the unfinished footage looked like an old video game. I thought he was kidding or didn't know what an old video games looks like. I was wrong. The unfinished stuff looks like vintage Playstation 1 graphics.

Jesse757x · 11-21-2010, 12:56 AM

My disc 1 and 3 already have small minor scratches on them.

It must be the packaging because i've never had any problems with blurays before.

Boy, how I wish that awesome scene was included in the final cut.

does the edition come with a paper slip cover that you can pull out and put into a blank one? i bought it from amazon today, just wondering. do they sell blank blu ray cases big enough to fit in the slipcover? just wondering

OK, I just watched it again and figured out what I was noticing here.

It was the focus shifting between Neytiri and Jake in which her facial details kept softening and disappearing, which explains why I thought it might have been unfinished CGI.

Going through the set more extensively now, I gotta say, I liked Avatar, but now I really like it. The deleted scenes and extras are great, and the collector's edition cut really does add a lot to the film. Awesome set. On another note, I can't figure out why this thread didn't get one of those movie specific names. I mean really, no Na'vi-thread? No Unobtain-a-thread? Missed opportunities.
