"I'm speechless," said Nahum Villalobos, a 19-year-old Navy recruit from Vista, Calif., who watched 25 minutes of exclusive footage of Avatar along with 6,500 people at the Comic-Con convention in San Diego on Thursday. "It's more extraordinary than any other movie that is out there, or has been."
This quote came courtesy of an AP story about James Cameron's much anticipated 3-D epic, the first feature he has directed since Titanic which spins the tale of "an ex-soldier's interactions with 10-foot-tall aliens on the luminous planet of Pandora."
Now comes word that Cameron's next marketing ploy will be a free 15-minute 3-D preview of his film at selected theaters around the country on Aug. 21, which also happens to be the day Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds is supposed to open. Originally, the Weinstein Company thought it had that day all to itself, but Cameron's ploy could really impact what needs to be a strong opening for Tarantino's film.
I love it when these guys feed upon each other.
